We had an amazing tour with Gelsomina. We just arrived to Paris and wanted to take a less touristy path through the city (avoiding Arc de Triomphe, Eiffle Tower, Champs-Elysees, etc). She curated a wonderful walk for us through Saint-Germain-des-Prés and the Latin Quarter. We got to see all her favorite spots while also orienting us on how the city is laid out and pointed out historical facts that really helped us get excited about our week. We definitely recommend Gelsomina for a tour through Paris!Thank you, Gelsomina!

Andrea's tour was a great intro to Paris. We hit several of the highlights, and he also took us to some places we never would've known about. For example, since we're from Philadelphia, he took us to see Benjamin Franklin's Paris office. We moved quickly to maximize our time, but didn't feel rushed. We recommend Andrea!Knowledgeable with Sense of Humor

Absolutely fantastic experience! We had a layover in Paris and were looking for a local guide who could show us around without the stress of planning, and we hit the jackpot with Gelsomina. From the moment we met her, she was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. She made sure we hit all the spots we wanted to see, and even suggested some hidden gems we would have missed otherwise. After our red-eye flight, we really appreciated how easy-going and laid-back she was — it made the whole experience so relaxed and enjoyable. She even went above and beyond by taking the subway with us and ensuring we knew exactly where to go to catch our train back to the airport. Don't think twice, go with Gelsomina! What a pleasure

Paolo was a great guide, and took us around downtown Paris discussing the architecture and history of all the important buildings. We enjoyed spending time with him and he was very accommodating for my 76, 77, and 78 year year old mother and aunts. I highly recommend using him as a tour guide.Great tour of Patis

Louis was a perfect guide for our walking tour. He is incredibly knowledgeable, and we covered a huge range of topics from current affairs, architecture, philosophy, food and culture. And such a good host. We had great fun popping into shops to sample and buy. And the entire tour was bespoke. Louis took great care and attention to plan and show us the parts of Paris we were interested in. Thanks so much! Incredibly thoughtful guide to Paris!

(About local Giedre Izabele)

30 octubre 2024

Friends who had recently been to Paris recommended Withlocals, and after looking through all the guides we decided to go with Giedre. She was excellent! She was waiting for us at the designated spot with a smile on her face, and spent just over 3 hours taking us on a personal walking tour through Paris, with some stops along the way to for some quick shopping or to grab a drink at our request. Her knowledge and passion about the history and architecture of Paris was apparent from the start, and she had a great ability to share the history and stories of all the places we passed in such an interesting way and answer our questions. It was really fun exploring Paris with a local, and she was full of helpful little tidbits of information, like when we took the Metro together to one spot she told us to make sure our pockets were zipped and our bags were held close because of pickpocketing, or took us to a street with an amazing view of the Eiffel Tower that tourists don't frequent but where the locals like to go. She also shared some of her own personal recommendations for areas to visit, restaurants she loves, good places to buy posters or grab a cafe latte. She curated the tour a bit based on some of the things we wanted to see and do, and at the end dropped us off at an amazing cafe that won the award for the best croissants in Paris in 2023 where we had an incredible lunch. I would highly recommend Withlocals for an elevated experience touring Paris, and if you do a walking tour, you can't go wrong with Giedre. She's absolutely lovely and delightful and is sure to make your tour a wonderful afternoon in Paris. Amazing guide and experience

We had the pleasure of having Welly as our guide in Paris, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. His vast and varied knowledge of all things Paris truly enriched our visit. Welly was not only professional and insightful but also incredibly thoughtful in his approach. He managed to engage every member of our party, ranging in age from 10 to 70, with ease. His ability to connect with and captivate such a diverse group speaks volumes about his skills as a guide.

We adored our tour with Anukool! The span and depth of knowledge he has on .... EVERYTHING ... was just astounding. His easy-going personality made it a fun adventure as he led us around the city and shared fascinating stories. You can't go everywhere in just 3 hours, but Anakool was totally flexible and let us choose what parts we wanted to explore with him. Then gave us tips on the things we would be doing later in the trip on our own. Anakool was the perfect way to kick off our stay in Paris! :) Human Google with Personality!

Izabele was such a pleasant surprise. She set up one day tour with us to accommodate our request and at the same time, we got to experience Paris in the way that we never thought of doing it ourselves as tourist. There are many little gems she was showing us and it felt effortless. A day went by so quickly and we got so many boxes checked. We can't wait to come back and we definitely going to book Iza again. See you soon, Iza. This is how you "Paris" in one day

Giedre is an absolutely wonderful guide. She is extremely personable and has so much to share. After we met and since we had never been to Paris, we asked what she would like to show us as first time visitors. We used our map and she walked us through the best of the sights to see during our time together over a Latte at a local cafe. At the end of our tour, she also pointed us toward other local favorites. We highly recommend spending time with Giedre while in Paris.Traveling in Paris

Gelsomina was excellent - she was so flexible and designed the tour around our requests! I’ve been to Paris, however took this tour with my 2 adult daughters-one had been here briefly two years ago and it was the first time for my other daughter. We saw so many highlights of Paris and Gelsomina is so knowledgeable about the history of this beautiful city. She made stops when we requested and gave us great advice for the rest of our trip. It was the perfect way to start our trip and can’t say enough about how wonderful Gelsomina was as our guide!
