Romy was a great guide! She did the best tour she could in the short time we had left. We booked this tour over others due to it's location close to Notre Dame - because we were so short on time. She sent us a different address that we didn't see until we had wasted a lot of time hunting for her at the address advertised as 5 - 10 minute walk from Notre Dame. The new address is 19 minute walk. So we only got a 1 hour 45 min tour. Like I said, she did a great job in the time remaining, but it was a lot to pay for that short of time. They need to advertise the address correctly - not pull a bait and switch, for which she insisted was for our benefit...Romy great, but tour not as advertised.

We booked a last-minute cycling tour—just about an hour and a half before the start—and couldn’t have been more excited. We asked to skip the usual tourist spots and see some of the more local, off-the-beaten-path areas. Zyggy totally got it and quickly customized the route for us.
We rode along the Seine, past the Louvre, through the Marais, Île Saint-Louis, past Notre-Dame, and into the beautiful streets of Saint-Germain. Midway through, we took a quick break at a cozy little café for a much-needed coffee.
The ride was a blast—we’re both super comfortable on e-bikes, and it was such a fun way to explore the city.
Zyggy also gave us some great local restaurant tips and even made a reservation for us that night. It really felt like we got the true Paris local experience.
Highly recommend!Unique Bicycle Tour Off the Beaten Path

We had a wonderful walking tour of Paris with Anukool. He was engaging with his knowledge of the city and history, answering our kids (aged 8 and 10) questions and keeping them engaged throughout the 3 hours we spent with him. We loved all the tasting, exploring and really appreciated the local recommendations which helped us get the best from our stay. Thank you Anukool!Walking tour of Paris with kids

We begonnen helaas een kwartier te laat, gids was nog onderweg met de metro.
Daarna de tocht begonnen, en naar onze smaak en mening wel erg veel geschiedenis, ik overdrijf niet als er wel 50 jaartallen/eeuwen voorbij zijn gekomen.
De stops bij diverse bezienswaardigheden waren ook relatief lang waardoor je minder fietst en dus ook minder ziet.
De local drink die ons was toegezegd hebben we heelaas ook moeten missen.
Hierdoor vinden we de prijs/kwaliteit verhouding helaas niet wat deze moet zijn voor dit bedrag.Leuk, maar relatief weinig gefietst.

Anukool has vast knowledge of the history of this city that he loves so much. Bicycle is the best way to travel around the city, you can cover great distance without having to spend time stuck in traffic. As you can imagine Paris is everything I expected and more.

Had a wonderful time with Aukool on Velib bikes in Paris. An interesting half day tour went by quickly as we got on and off the city bikes and learned about Paris history and food culture from a knowledgeable, fun and engaging guide. The pace was good and we felt safe as we cycled the bike paths. Highly recommended. Will take a foodie tour with Anukool when we return! Great time biking in Paris

We had an excellent tour of the Musee D’Orsay with Henrick. It is obvious that he is extremely knowledgeable about art and history and the city of Paris and he is able to communicate his knowledge in a way that is engaging and lively and genuinely fun. I did the tour with my two teenagers. It is a testament to Henrick and his communicative style that even my teenagers were completely engaged and left the museum with a true appreciation for the art that we were able to see. I would absolutely recommend Henrick and the next time we are in Paris we will specifically request him for any tours that we do. Thank you Henrick for making our vacation and specifically our tour of the museum a special one! We really appreciate you.Excellent tour

We loved our Mountmarte tasting, walking tour for 3 reasons:
1- Alexia, what a gem! And a true local, she was knowledgeable and gave us so many experiences we would never have known on our own.
2- the tastes! Again, nothing we would have known to try as visitors, and new and different things then i’ve tried before. Great balance of sweet and savory.
3-Anecdotes and history, alongside incredible views and sights. Incredible way to experience the city!
I would not hesitate to book a tour with Alexia; the perfect way to get to know a new city! Lovely!

While the quality of food samples shared on the tour were good the venues left much to be desired. It was awkward trying to enjoy the different foods while standing on the street. Also would have enjoyed hearing more about the details of the preparation of the different kinds of foods.Too much on the street food

Alexia was a delight as she toured us through the charming neighborhood of Montmartre. She made sure to cater the experience to our tastes and was full of stories of the different areas we walked through. She knew the best spots to stop for a little snack (an amazing pastry shop and chocolatier!) and was a huge help in asking for recommendations for the duration of our Paris trip. Alexia is a tremendously thoughtful and knowledgeable guide and we enjoyed our time with her thoroughly!A wonderful tour of Montmartre!!

Giedre was a gem. She was full of information and provided us with good samples. The tour itself was not what we were expecting. We assumed we would be sampling food in restaurants. Our first sample was in a restaurant and we did sit down and eat some cheese in the park and that was fine. Standing on a crowded street trying to eat a sample was not the most pleasant experience. I was expecting more drinks with our samples and I thought wine was included, but apparently it was not.Not the experience we were looking for

We had the pleasure of having Welly as a guide in 2023. When we returned to Paris to this year, we were excited to find he was available to give us a tour again, so we booked him again. As before, Welly was professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. We learned so much from him and also had a lot of fun. We’ve visited Paris multiple times, but Welly is still able to surprise us with so many historical facts and general knowledge about Paris. We will definitely book him again in the future! Another great experience

My wife and I booked an afternoon tour with Anukool around Montmatre. Met Anukool and he is a very knowledgeable and friendly guy who gave us a great tour of the area and told us many things we would not have learned if we had done this on our own. He recommended some great places to visit and eat. Montmatre as a area is well worth visiting and whilst there are the obvious attractions such as Sacre Couer there also many hidden gems. Really liked Anukool and the area. I will definitely visit Montmatre again.Interesting and fun afternoon Anukool

Alex had a wonderful itinerary planned for us. She sent me about 5 options to choose from and I picked one that ended in and around the neighborhood where we were staying. I also let her know we love food! It was great to be able to tailor our tour to our interests. She took us to a handful of sweets shops with different delicacies along with a shop for us to purchase good pate and cheese. We got a lot of history along the way and got to see a few hidden gems as well. She talked with each of us individually as we walked. She gave us suggestions for the rest of our stay...many of which we have checked off our list. We loved our tour with Alex!Grest walking tour

So three of us (adults visiting from Canada) did this tour with Anukool today. This should definitely be on your list to do while in Paris. He is very engaging, very knowledgeable. He knows the location of hidden food gems and delights in sharing them. There was lots of food, you won’t end hungry. Highly recommend this tour and any tour with him really.

Anukool has lived in France for a long time and loves his city. He is very knowledgeable about French history and an engaging conversationalist. He can also show you many non-touristy corners and give you good tips for the time you spend on your own. We took a customized tour with him and really enjoyed being with him.Great guy!

Wow, très bien, what a great tour, and Iza was merveilleuse (wonderful)! We had the best time wandering Montmartre, savouring its delights and hearing about its history, its characters and its sights, particularly the out of the way ones.
Iza, our tour guide, was so flexible, changing our route as we had already seen some of the sights. And being a Parisian, she told us all the sights, restaurants, cafes and wine bars to go afterwards (and also the places not to go)!
She was easy to talk to and knowledgeable and by the end of the tour Iza was our new friend in Paris.
Would highly recommend this tour and, more importantly, Iza as a tour guide.

From flaky croissants to decadent chocolates, each bite was a testament to the rich culinary heritage of Paris.
