Our First Day in Paris.

Patty_S, May 2026
This experience was everything we wanted and more. Many of my group of 7 had never neen to Paris before so the fact that we were able to customize our tour was perfect. This ensured we were able to see exactly what we wanted to see. Our guide Virginie was incredible. She was personable and extremely knowledgeable. We had so much fun with her!

Excellent tour guide, but the communication with the tour operator needs to be better.

Vick_N, Oct 2025
The guide we had, Flo, was excellent. He speaks perfect English and very knowledgeable since she teaches art history at local college. We'd give 5 stars for the tour portion of our experience, but had to take one star off due to the communication difficulties we had during this booking process. Every time when we asked a question about the tour to tour operator, it took a week or longer to receive a response, and we had to send messages twice, maybe three times to receive the response. We had to ask questions several times to clarify about detain of this tour, and each time we asked, we had to wait a week or longer. We thought about canceling the tour due to this communication issue but at the end, everything worked out very well. This is a private tour and it is a little pricey especially the size of the group gets larger since we had to pay per person, not per group. We are group of 4 and had to spend almost $800 for the all day tour.
