Absolutely amazing day in Paris! We had Lou as our guide and our driver in which everything was customized. We had the best service, efficiency, and such an overall great day!

We booked a custom day in Paris to see all the sites. The company made recommendations and the guide was very informative. We learned a lot, saw some beautiful parts of the city and experienced the local lifestyle. Absolutely perfect!!

It is worth it so much yo have a personal guide to take you all over Paris landmarks. Our guide was extraordinary!
Paul_B, Apr 2025
Personalized and recommended tour to the spots we wanted to see. Got to all the major sites while avoiding the masses of people. We didn't go on all the major sites but wanted to see them and our guide was very knowledgeable and flexible. Highly recommend.

Benoit was such a great guide that we booked another tour with him soon. We saw many city sites and he suggested a wonderful place for our lunch. He is very knowledgeable about the history of Paris. We had a terrific day!

We had a great day with our guide Wallid! He was very informative and provided us with a full, relaxed itenarary. He was very personable and we enjoyed getting to know him.

Our Tour Guide, Clara, was very sweet. She was knowledgeable and did her best to accommodate requests. She was exceptional at keeping in touch before our arrival and the day of our tour. She was also very willing to assist in helping with other aspects of our visit to Paris. She provided all of the Metro cards needed and met us right at our accommodations to start the tour which was very nice, making for a stress free day.

Andrea was exceptional. We were a three generation family group of six ages 14 to 72. We already had plans for sites like arc de Triomphe, Louvre and Eiffel Tower on our own so we wanted an entertaining and informative day about neighborhoods like Montmatre, street art, culture, etc to round out our experience in Paris. The teenagers were totally engaged and up front listening and walking with the guide… as were we all! Of our nine days in London and Paris, this was a family favorite!

Interesting walking tour with relevant commentary from guide. Clara (guide) provided commentary on the history and the development of France as told by it's neighbourhoods and architecture.

We had a wonderful full day city tour with Walid. He met us (my wife, I and our 3 sons 11, 7, 5 yrs old) at our hotel and we completed the tour either on foot or by metro (tickets provided). Walid was so knowledgeable and personable. He put us all at ease and paced our walks with the youngest so he would be comfortable. We visited the Opera Garnier, Mont Martre with lunch at a restaurant tailored to what we wanted to eat (My son wanted to try escargots and frogs legs), followed by the Arc de Triomphe (walking up the steps to the top), Quartier latin and the exterior of the Pantheon. He threw in some interesting additional spots like the dome of valerie’s lafayette and its terrace which has lovely views and even an art deco public toilet which was very interesting. My wife had mentioned that she loved the hot chocolate at a particular patisserie which was too crowded and he took us on a small detour through a beautiful garden to get to a branch that was considerably less crowded so she could get one. We are grateful for his expertise which allowed us to see a number of our to do list places relatively efficiently for our short trip and we truly felt like we were being guided by our friend in Paris. Amazing tour and a must for families on shorter trips. Merci Beaucoup Walid!

Walid was absolutely incredible. Mine and my husbands first trip to Paris, we booked Walid for the first full day we were there and the whole experience was incredible! He took us to so many places, places tourists don’t know about. Booked reservations for us, even when we weren’t with him and filled us with facts and history about Paris! I would rate it 10000/10.
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Ashley, thank you! I had a lot of fun showing you around Paris, from the classics to the hidden gems I love. You are welcome back anytime!

We only had 24 hours in Paris but it was a day we won’t soon forget! We arrived in Paris by EuroStar and Walid met us at our hotel around 8:30 the following morning. Our walking tour began at the Arc de Triomphe. From there we took the metro to the Louvre where Walid got us in at a back entrance that very few patrons know about. That turned out to be wonderful because although it was still early morning, the crowds had already begun to form and we were able to see the Mona Lisa before the long lines started! After the museum, we visited Angelina’s for the best drinkable chocolate we’ve ever had!! From there we took a quick tour of a nearby Catholic Church. After that Walid thought it would be nice to see a Parisian market, and what a treat that was to see!! From there we had a beautiful lunch and tried several French wines at a neighborhood restaurant. From there it was time to see Notre Dame Cathedral. ( We were only able to see it from the outside due to the fire last year) Afterwards we walked to a boat dock where we were able to take a Siene River boat cruise but not until after seeing the Eiffel Tower. What we enjoyed most about the day was how Walid was able to keep to our itinerary while still hitting a few surprises that we asked about earlier in the day. We were able to purchase delicious macaroons & as I said above, even visit Angelina’s for the drinkable hot chocolate. Both of these stops were not on our original itinerary but Walid was able to make it happen. Walid was warm, engaging and had a lot of knowledge to share about the sites we visited. His English is very good and that made us very comfortable. He was hospitable and very kind. When we asked about a few extra stops as I mentioned, he never said no. He was very willing to be flexible and absolutely gave us an outstanding Parisian experience. We can not say enough our MAGICAL day in Paris with Walid! If you are considering taking this tour we highly recommend Walid and his tour company. They care about their clients and are committed to giving the best experience possible. A GEM! THANK YOU WALID! WE WONT SOON FORGET OUR TIME WITH YOU!
