Fantastic tour - Super amazing your with Emily! Truly another side of the history you'll hear elsewhere but about women you either don't know or have got mostly wrong. Super informative and made me want to learn so much more about these women. Highly recommend!

A must for anyone who wants to look at history through a more realistic lens! - My recent tour with Women of Paris Tours was insightful, inspiring, and incredibly well put together. Our guide was knowledgeable, passionate, and brought the stories of remarkable women to life in a way that was both engaging and empowering. I left with a deeper appreciation for Paris and the women who helped shape its history. Highly recommended!

Excéllent! Fascinant! - Excellent! We took the tour “Liberté Égalité Marché” tour with lovely Pat. She gave us coffee and snacks so I love her! Fascinating and fun. It’s great to look at history from a feminist angle.

A wonderfully engaging and informative tour - This tour is wonderfully packed with the political and cultural history of significant women of Paris, and our guide Wassily brought it to vivid life with a terrific presentation — engaging, incisive, and passionate. She uncovered the challenges these women confronted, and how they dealt with them over the centuries, up to and including today.

Interesting tour from a women's perspective - An interesting interactive 2 hour plus walking tour which taught me more about the women of history in Paris. It was mainly around the Luxembourg Gardens, St Germain and Latin Quarter areas.

All about the women- - Just finished this interesting tour and loved it. What a good idea to tell the story of the women who have done great things but often without recognition. Thank you to our lovely guide who found us shelters from the rain along the way and was able to answer our many questions. A mother and daughter.
