Murielle combined two of her tours together for us and we enjoyed having so much time exploring two contrasting neighbourhoods. A lovely day out.

The walking tour in the 17th adr was a highlight of our trip to France. Yes we liked the other traditional Paris sights but taking a morning walk with a local we saw beautiful parts of Paris and learned about the architecture and history of the buildings. Definitely a 5 star experience.Taste of Paris

Murielle gave us an excellent tour of the Batignolles area in Paris. We're interested in living in Paris one day and wanted to get a feel for one of the residential neighborhoods. Murielle was knowledgeable of the area as well as very personable. We enjoyed our time with her.Great tour of the Batignolles in Paris

This was my second tour with Murielle. I loved the first one and I loved this one! Murielle pays attention to the beauty of all things and points out things to me that are awe inspiring. She also shows me and tells me about the history of Paris and of France and many more interesting details and facts. I will be scheduling one more tour with her closer to Christmas. Murielle is making my trip to Paris spectacular! LindaTour with Murielle in the 17th

Murielle was pleasant to be with but shared very little information with us on our tour. We did enjoy walking through the neighbors hoods but constantly had to ask questions as Murielle was rather quiet. At one point in the tour we had to make suggestion as to what we would like to do next as it turned into more of a very nice walk rather than a guided tour. We do feel that Murielle was not feeling well that day and we noted that she was experiencing some physical discomfort during the day. We did enjoy the tour of MLK park and explanation of the community they are building in this area. Not sure what to say here

Muriel's was just wonderful, right on time and we took a lovely long walk through the 17eme, Batignolles and through some gorgeous neighborhoods. It was so interesting to get her perspective on the way her neighborhood is changing, new architecture, social changes. Batignolles is just lovely and then we continued our walk to explore different architectural styles, "gated" communities and some interesting shops.We ended up at the Champs Elysee and I was able to get some great shots all along the way. Murielle is warm and easy to talk to and it was a pleasure spending the afternoon and ending with a nice hot hot drink on a cold but otherwise great day. I cannot recommend her enough.What a wonderful day!

Murielle is an awesome lady. She's funny and kind and very open to any questions you might have. Our tour through less touristy neighborhoods was a joy. I learned a lot and had a great time. You can tell that Murielle really enjoys meeting new people from all different cultures and countries!Great afternoon with a local

We loved exploring the city with Murielle! We'd been to Paris before so it was fun to see a more local side of the city! We would definitely recommend to do this your if you're looking for insight to a true Parisian lifestyle! Batignolles: a Parisian Village!

Murielle a été une guide exceptionnelle pour mon beau-frère et sa femme lors de leur séjour à Paris. Elle a su adapter la visite à leurs centres d'intérêt, leur offrant une expérience personnalisée et enrichissante. Ils sont repartis enchantés, avec des souvenirs impérissables et une envie de revenir pour découvrir encore plus de cette magnifique ville avec Murielle comme guide. Je la recommande vivement à quiconque souhaite découvrir Paris.Une expérience inoubliable avec Murielle !

I asked Murielle to help me on a customized tour to see Parks and Gardens in Paris. She did an amazing job! Very kind and knowledgable. Also, Murielle was really good at slowing down at certain points to help me see details I would have missed on my own. I highly recommend her as a guide. Wonderful guide!

My wife and I very much enjoyed our tour of Montmartre with Murielle. She was very personable and knowledgeable about the area. We appreciated that she did the tour in french as we requested so we could practice our french as we toured the area. She willingly tailored the tour to our interests. Towards the end the rain was starting to get to us so we ducked into a cafe to enjoy a coffee to round out the tour. Excellent Tour of Montmartre

We spent a wonderful afternoon with Murielle starting at Gare Saint Lazare to see the Christmas decorations in the big department stores and then wandering up to Montmartre. It was so interesting looking at all the different architecture in the area. We highly recommend this tour. Murielle is an excellent guide. Lovely tour of Montmatre

Murielle was a great guide through the streets of Montmartre. She showed us some great architecture and hidden streets with so much charm. We got the popular sights as well but it was a lovely morning walk with a great guide. We ended in a coffee shop to end the tour. Wonderful walk through Montmartre

Murielle made our time in Montmatre very special as if meeting an old friend. The backstreets and stories as to Montmatre were wonderful and we saw things we would not have ever seen! Just perfect on all levels. Murielle is the best!

It’s one thing to visit a city and just experience what is typical for the average tourists. It’s a bother thing to experiment that city as a local and get a real feel of what it’s like to live in a city. The food , the culture, the transportation and general way of life. This was our experience with Murielle. A excellent host and tour guide that made my family’s (8 persons from teens to early 70’s) experience in Paris simply one of a kind. Knowledgeable, kind, fun and with a love for her city. We love Paris!!!

My husband and I toured Montmatre with Murielle and we feel like we found the real neighborhood. Although we Had been to Montmatre once before, we had seen only the very touristy parts of the area. Murielle showed us the back streets and told us about the history and architecture of the area. I highly recommend this tour

Thank you Murielle for winding us around the streets of Monmartre, combining quiet, leafy, residential streets with busy tourist areas. We enjoyed seeing the art. Thank you for your company.Monmartre in all its glory !

As one of our group of four has some mobility problems, our guide, Murielle, put together a shorter tour with easier walking for us. Murielle was charming, informative and entertaining and we enjoyed our tour with her. With her help we saw parts of Montmartre that were quiet, off the beaten track, and which we would not have seen without Murielle's help. Charming, tailored tour of Montmartre

Rachel🇺🇸 United States

A delightful way to learn about the area. Murielle pointed out many things I would not have noticed, and taught me a lot about the culture. Great communication. Thank you!Lovely!

Strolling through Montmarte with Muriel’s felt so easy and comfortable it was like catching up with an old friend in her favourite neighbourhood. We dodged down small streets and alleyways to see the best of what the area had to offer in terms of street art and other little gems and avoided the crowds. I had a great time and would highly recommend spending a few hours in Murielle’s company exploring Paris. Gillian (ireland)A stroll through Montmarte with an old friend

This tour was excellent. We did the tour at night and the areas we walked were beautiful. I loved that we were able to stop and visit local shops and eateries during the tour. We also visited a few Christmas markets. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and clothes. Excellent tour

I had an AMAZING time with Murielle. We were a group of 5 women and we laughed and share stories, she is just kind and gentle. She was very knowledgeable about the history of Paris and showed us some beautiful locations. She is funny, energetic, and kept all of our attention. Murielle thank you so much for an awesome experience.

Murielle is a great guide and she really knows the neighborhood! Even though this can be a touristy area, Murielle makes it feel really unique, like you're discovering something secret. At the end I found out that she has other walking tours, and I definitely want to go on another. This is really a special experience and I implore anyone visiting Paris to try it! Absolutely wonderful

Hola, personalmente fue muy buena experiencia.. y los puntos revisados han sido los principales de la ciudad para hacer una visita de 3-4 horas. Desde mi punto de vista le falto un poco más de historia y contexto a las cosas que veìamos .. creo que por ahi la zona no era de su mayor experiencia y eso limitò un poco la visita. Sinceramente, creo que para el mismo resultado podriamos haberla hecho sin guia con resultados equivalentes.Visita a Paris

We spent New Year's morning walking around Montmartre with Murielle and she was an outstanding guide. She pointed out many small but interesting features of the neighborhood and made the entire area come alive. She also recommended a restaurant in the area for lunch that was fantastic. Excellent tour and guide

Thank you Murielle for being so flexible with our meeting time, places to go, and just generally being so chill throughout the tour. Very approachable and friendly! Favorite part is definitely the different street art. Generally a very good experience! Murielle made me love Paris even more!

Murielle was extremely pleasant and kind. Her tour of Montmartre was wonderful, she covered key landmarks and art displays and also provided the historical backgrounds to each. She also highlighted famous bistros (by film or other) and award-winning bakeries! Montmartre is absolutely exquisite and a must see. I highly recommend Murielle as a guide. Wonderful!

Murielle could not have been more flexible or helpful. She was willing to incorporate all the sites I wanted to see .... and then some! When she realized I was interested in street art, she went out of her way to make sure I was able to see some beautiful examples. The weather was perfect but the company was even beter!A wonderful day!

We really enjoyed our tour with Murielle, which we mainly did in French but with a little English from time to time! We saw parts of the village that we probably would not have seen on our own, and also found out curious and interesting facts. Merci Murielle!Great way to discover the real Montmartre

My colleagues and I wanted to entertain clients but needed a private, customizable tour after the Paris airshow. Not only was Murielle helpful, punctual and patient, she was knowledgeable and went out of her way to accommodate our needs. Thank you, Murielle! We had a lovely afternoon with you! Murielle is WONDERFUL!

Murielle took our family (2 adults and 2 teens) on a wonderful tour through Montmartre. The route was beautiful and the pace was excellent. Murielle made sure we saw the touristy highlights but she also gave us a great sense of the local life and environment. She was willing to tailor the tour to our needs and checked in with us frequently. We sat with her at a cafe for a brief time, which was really relaxing and fun. She is incredibly nice, conscientious, and knowledgeable. She even provided us with a printed overview of the areas we walked, the landmarks, and her contact information. She definitely went above and beyond our expectations, and her tour was a true highlight of our brief trip to Paris. I would recommend her most highly for anyone looking for an excellent walking tour of Montmartre!Outstanding Tour, Highly Recommend

Murielle was a wonderful guide and provided us with an appreciation of the buildings, parks and socialising aspects of the area. She was understanding of our age and fitness to tailor the tour so we got to see Sacre Coeur but did so in a gradual climb as well as finding my favourite street scene from a photo I took in 2006. A wonderful guide and person.Opening our eyes to the beauty of Montmatr

Murielle led us around Montematre area with an uncertainty of purpose or information about the area. We expected more history of the area and only got the big highlights that are well known. It was a lovely evening to walk but expected more, especially for the price. We could have walked up the hill on our own for a single oyster, charcuterie and a glass of wine. Enjoyed the walk but lacking dialogue

Paris can be overwhelming and daunting - Withlocals and Murielle's Tour is a perfect way to enjoy a part of the city that may be difficult to navigate without local knowledge. Stumbling across unexpected gems and feeling safe whilst exploring an area away from the tourist route was amazing! Thank you Murielle. We will be using with locals again!Beautiful Montmartre in Capable Hands

Murielle gave us a fabulous overview of the area with a perfect mix of locations, events, and characters who've made Montmartre what it is today. We loved the tour and Murielle!Fabulous Tour and Guide!
