It was wonderful! Johann... - It was wonderful! Johann was such an easy person to get along with and he had very good nuggets, having lived here since 2017! It was extremely worth the money and the tour was very well thoughtout!

Best walking tour in Paris!! - My wife and I have taken a lot of City walking tours in Europe and this was the best yet! Our guide and his wife designed the tour and it really hits the highlights of Paris with knowledgeable and interesting explanations at every stop. We did the 5hr tour and it was worth every euro! We highly recommend taking this tour when visiting Paris!!

Perfect walking day trip with an excellent guide. - We saw many bits of Paris for sure, several we would have never known about or even found on our own. A great day of sights and the perfect amount of time.

Just Perfect - Possibly due to it being a small group but this was a very relaxed and informative tour, the Guide, Saxon was very knowledgeable and fun to be around. I was particularly impressed with his attention to detail, as soon as he knew that I had food allergies he made sure to find a suitable restaurant tailored for my needs.... Now that's impeccable service. I would highly recommend this tour. Thanks to Saxon and his colleagues for making this an unforgettable experience. We loved this

Excellent Tour - Excellent tour! Claire was an awesome tour guide. She was professional, knowledgeable, and accommodating. We saw all the major landmarks. Claire provided advice on when to visit the sites and how best to get there. I agree with all the previous reviews that this is the best way to see the city, since it includes navigating the Metro.

They canceled before our tour - This company canceled a week before the trip but I did not receive the message until we were at the meeting point waiting for our tour to begin. They said they would initiate a refund immediately when they sent the message a week before when they canceled. They did not issue a refund until I got on TripAdvisor to request it. This was very disappointing!
