A wonderful tour that lead us through the streets of St Germaine. We learned all about the female literary makers and shakers of the time. Toured around a good section of town stopping along the way to learn the history. Also stopping for two treats which was a good surprise.
Pat was a terrific storyteller who clearly loves the topic. Truly enjoyed the tour and so interesting, learned a lot. Pat brought a camp chair for me to sit on during the stops as I had a knee injury. So thoughtful! I was very appreciative. A great experience on the Left Bank, highly recommend!
