We met Andrea for our City Kickstarter tour and he was fantastic. Met us on the left bank and then provided us an overview and introduction to the beautiful city of Paris. Andrea shared many interesting stories and gave us a good introduction to what and how we should approach our week ahead. Andrea was easy to engage and open to questions and sharing opinions.

We arrived weary from the States but excited to see Paris. Gelsomina was just the best!! She helped to orient us and show around the 6th where we were staying and then to the Latin Quarter. Her energy, passion and breadth of knowledge for Paris was contagious. She even walked us down to the metro and quickly helped us to navigate. We rode it everywhere in the days that followed. You will love your time with here 🇫🇷👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇫🇷Fabulous intro to Paris with Gelsomina!!

Our first time in Paris. Limited number of days in favor of a romantic vacation. We did not find the time before the trip to plan and organize where to go and what to do. And the tour we did with Gelsomina was simply stunning. She is so nice and pleasant that we enjoyed every moment in her company. And the tips and recommendations she gave us on the tour accompanied us throughout the week and the tour made the vacation much more focused and purposeful.Exactly what we needed

Anukool was a great choice for us as he met us at our hotel and showed us the best features and local benefits of the area.

Our walking tour with Rachelle was exact what we needed to start a wonderful Paris adventure. After an early arrival we met Rachelle for a fantastic walking tour of the Latin Quarter. She pointed out historical sites we already knew about plus several we’d never heard of. She relayed cool historical stories about the site we saw plus gave us some funny trivial facts you’d never get from a guidebook. She helped us fill in the gaps of our stay with wonderful suggestions of other sites and museums to add to our list. If you want an insiders perspective of Paris, start your stay with this great kickstart tour with Rachelle. Perfect Way to Start a Paris Adventure

Anukool was friendly and relaxed on our tour of the Latin Quarter. He showed us around, pointed out an award-winning patisserie, shared his love of history, and even showed us where Emily in Paris was filmed. This was our first With Locals tour and it definitely had a different vibe than other tours we’ve been on—kind of like hanging out with a friend for the afternoon. Relaxed Intro to the Latin Quarter

We would highly recommend booking your Paris walking tour with Gelsomina. We were a party of four friends and booked the 1.5 hr tour because of our time constraints, otherwise we would have booked for longer - the food tour sounds great too. We took a brilliant tour around the Latin Quarter and St Germain. Having visited this area before, I was surprised to see so many new things and learn so many interesting details about France, people and the local area. It was wonderful. She also gave us a great tip for lunch afterwards. Gelsomina was great - friendly, engaged, interesting, knowledgable and fun. We would definitely book again. Thanks Gelsomina for a great tour!Book a tour with Gelsomina!

My wife and I had two tours with Rachelle, the Kickstarter and Pastry tour, because she bought us on the first tour. Rachelle is probably the kindest and sweetest person you can meet in Paris, and I cannot express enough how nice, charming, friendly and good guide she is. Her advices were more than helpful, she was great companion, she knows a lot about history, food and everything you need to know in Paris. As a matter a fact, we liked her so much, that we'll take her for more tours when we return to Paris in spring with our children. Rachelle, you rock! Absolutely stunning.
