Danilo was an great guide. We saw 3 fantastic bands in places I would have never found on my own. He asked good questions upfront to help tailor the night to music I would really like. The next day he followed up with more recommendations for the rest of my stay. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to hear the best of Paris.Great experience

I highly recommend this tour with Danilo! I was traveling by myself and wanted to experience more night life and music while still being safe. Danilo made the night perfect! He knew of nice spots to check out and was also super fun to hang out with. We started at a small music venue, then went to a cool brazilian spot and ended at a place near the water. At the end of the night Danilo made sure I got back to my hotel safe. 100/10 would do again!Amazing memorable night!

Danilo was an amazing host. My mom, sister and I visited Paris last week and we had the unique experience of spending an evening with Danilo. We visited 3 different local musical venues based on our likes and interests. The evening was completely curated by Danilo. Danilo is a gracious host and an easy conversationalist. Highly recommend this tour. Thank you Danilo for an amazing experience we are unlikely to forget!!A unique experience

Danilo provided my partner and I with a music experience exactly as we hoped! In addition, Danilo is easy-going, a kind person and a lot of fun to be around. We appreciated our talks with him in between venues and feel as if we made a life-long friend. I highly recommend Danilo if you'd like to experience Paris' unique music scene with a unique person!

A tour of a very different kind with a wonderful view into his world! His love and passion for music is always noticeable. Danilo has a great knowledge around the topic of music which he can convey very naturally. He is an excellent guide, an interesting conversationalist and very authentic and his joy in what he does is contagious. Thank you so much it was unforgettable!

Danilo Sorry for the delay in writing a review. Just a crazy time. I want you - and anyone else who might be reading this - to know that our time with you was the cherry on top of the cake. It rounded out the other tours about art and history to provide us with an evening of fun, relaxation, great music, and of course drinks. We have told many people about our experience, and each and every one responded by saying, "we would never even think about something like that. Oh, we gotta do that the next time we're in Paris." It was a refreshing evening and know that we appreciate your interest, enthusiasm, and helpfulness in our having a super night. Hope we might meet again. J&EUnbelievable great music and fun!!!

This was my second tour with Danillo. He knows the best local bands and venues for a truly authentic experience in Paris. We went to 4 venues for an eclectic line up of music including Latin, funk, rock and capped of the night at an amazing speakeasy. Great person to take you around,highly recommend.

I had the honor and pleasure of hanging out with Danilo for two nights during my brief yet wonderful stay in Paris. As a tour guide, Danilo was very knowledgeable, communicative and organized. He made sure the music tours we had were tailored to my interests and that I witnessed the best Paris had to offer in terms of the music scene the way Parisians authentically experienced them. I learned a lot from simply listening to him gush about his love for art and music. His energy and insight are very inspiring and life-affirming! Going on this experience with Danilo feels more like hanging out with a friend than it is being on a tour. To experience Paris means to have meaningful conversations with the locals, and that’s exactly what I got from Danilo. If you would like to experience the spirit of Paris, I would highly recommend Danilo to show you around and take you on a journey through its streets. I promise you he won’t disappoint and you will leave Paris be in love with its people and music! Thank you for everything, Danilo. Looking forward to the next tour!Unforgettable Music Tours with Danilo

We wanted to see how Parisians spend their Saturday night. Well.. Danilo showed us how fun a night in Paris can be! He took care of all the reservations, and then the fun started! He took us to some nice, fun live music concerts and we had a chance to prove our dancing skills! If you’re in Paris, don’t miss out on this experience! Being suprised by a city we visited often

So glad to have done this evening out with Danilo. From the very start of the evening, it felt as if I was out with an old friend, which was quite lovely after having traveled solo for awhile beforehand. He was very communicative and attentive and really made sure to find music and venues that I would enjoy. We saw a variety of different bands, including a couple groups that weren’t even part of the itinerary, and it was so much better than anything I could have found on my own. Highly recommend if you’re looking to enjoy the ‘real’ music scene in Paris!! Great evening of music in Paris

We had a great time with Danilo. He took us to three venues to see jazz and blues during our tour. It was amazing to have someone as passionate about music (he’s a saxophone musician himself) accompany you to these venues. We chatted about the music, the settings and even some of the performers who frequent them. Danilo is a great guy that makes you feel comfortable. He’s friendly and positive with a great spirit. Great way to spend a sunny spring evening. Great Time

I contacted Danilo on the last minute, just a few hours before the evening and he responded immediately with a positive “can do” attitude. I just knew that I am interested to hear good and unique music. Danilo found great places of salsa and avantgarde music that I would have never been able to find on my own. He was friendly and did all he could to make me feel like going out with a good old friend, open to a conversation and making sure I am happy with his choices of places and music styles. He took care of drinks, transportation and queues. I warmly recommend him for guiding you in Paris.Excellent experience!!

My time spent with Danilo was delightful! I had the opportunity to participate in the street art experience where he expertly walked me through the steps to create my own work on paper and then translate that process using spray paint on a public wall. Throughout he was organized, patient, and encouraging, all while teaching about aspects of street art history and the culture of Paris. I was able to produce a piece I was proud of and gain more appreciation and understanding for this art form! Upon hearing about my interests in dance and music over authentic Italian food, Danilo efficiently planned out an evening catered toward my preferences of blues, jazz, funk, and dance. He introduced me to a formal funk performance in a "cave", a jam session where he joined in on stage playing his saxophone, and a Brazilian club where he led me in dancing forro. To end this incredible night we chatted over craft cocktails in a hidden speakeasy that played blues music. All the venues were within walking distance and not overly crowded (as COVID was a concern for me). As a solo female traveler, it felt like a night out with a good friend, and Danilo made sure I made it safely back to my lodging. I would highly recommend Danilo for his knowledge of entertainment and music venues in the area, ability to speak several languages, and his talent for creating personalized experiences that give visitors a glimpse into the local scene. I will be taking some fantastic memories home with me!Memorable Cultural Adventures!

I was looking out to find something different whilst my business trip to Paris and then i found out about this tour, i must say that it was an excellent tour, we went to 3 different places and each place was amazing with different genre of music and vibe. Danilo is an amazing guide and now a friend. His knowledge about music is indeed commendable. I would highly recommend this tour. Highly Recommended!

Meeting Danilo was really awesome and it was the highlight of an unforgettable “Paris night” he took the time to know exactly what kind of experience I wanted to have and chose the places perfectly to make sure I had the time of my life that night! We started with Sunset in the Seine at a River jazz boat followed by a Brazilian live and vibrant bossa nova infused live club that really transported me to that part of the world (appetizer and caipirinha are amazing) and if you don’t know how to samba dance, he’ll teach you for sure! He’s great at it. To end the night we went to this open mic jazz club where you could chill and hear the most amazing amateur voices, they were sooo good that gave me goosebumps! I started feeling nostalgic that I was sipping my last drink and saying bye to Danilo. Time really flies when you’re having an awesome time. Awesome night!!

This was the highlight of our trip. Danilo was fantastic! He took us to great places and worked his magic to get us into great seats. He was fun, personable and informative. We now consider him a friend. Best night of the trip!

The music crawl with Danilo was the highlight of my time in Paris. I felt like I was meeting up with an old friend who knew the ins and outs of the Paris music scene. Based on my preferences we went to two amazing jazz clubs both with different styles of jazz for variety. Danilo knew people at both places, and it felt like we had backstage passes. I had a really good time in Paris, but the music crawl with Danilo was by far my best night out. If you want to see the real Paris beyond the tourist traps and actually experience a side where Parisians hang out, this is the tour for you. Thanks, Danilo, for an unforgettable time! Exceeded Expectations!

Loved our Music Crawl with Danilo. It was a fun night listening to some great bands. We went to 2 venues, both in a cellar. The first one was very crowded and the band/singers were very good. Word of caution... do not order mixed drinks. Only order beer or wine. It doesn't seem as though bars in Paris are good at making cocktails. Huge failure at both bars/venues. The second venue was fun for people watching. It was very crowded as well. Small 3 piece band with ballroom type dancing. It was very upbeat and fun to watch. Danilo was fun and great to converse with. He knows the music scene fairly well and was fun to hang with. If looking for something to do one evening and go to a few interesting music venues, then book Danilo for a music crawl.FUN NIGHT WITH DANILO

You never know what to expect when you book .... a guide . But This time my experience was great . Danilo who is Italian musician who came to Paris to study music is a talented saxophone player. He took us to three jazz clubs each was better then the other. It was delightful evening full of good music and ... good drinks . We had great experience and on our next visit to Paris we are planning to contact Danilo to explore more Jazz clubs as there is so much more to see and hear in Paris Great evening

Danilo was absolutely amazing to connect with in order to see a less-typical side of Paris! We booked a music tour with Danilo just 3 short days before arriving in Paris. From the moment we booked, Danilo connected with us to understand our tastes and interests - whether looking for an authentic Parisienne nightlife experience of looking for specific venues. Our desire was to enjoy some live jazz / relaxed nightlife in the area. From messaging within the app and personal calls - Danilo nailed our desires hands-down. Danilo searched 40+ venues and showed us an amazing time. The meeting spot was perfect, and our first venue was busy and had a live band that just happened to be featuring Michael Jackson. This was unexpected but turned out to be a blast - especially with some audience participation. This was a great place to meet and touch base with Danilo as well - his English is great and he was great at reading our connection and timing when to move on. From here, we proceeded to an absolutely unique underground venue that had 2 sax players and a drummer - very acoustic and instrumental. Nothing we would have found on our own - and a fantastic surprise. Finally, we closed out the night at a live jazz club - so relaxing and a perfect spot to close out the night. I can't recommend this music tour with Danilo enough - he absolutely listened to our interest, read our needs, and is passionate about music and artistry. A+ recommendation and we'll connect again next time we're in Paris!Amazing Music and Authentic Nightlife Experience!

Danilo is the best! He took my friend and I to a great local spot. He has amazing taste in music and knows the difference between good and bad musicians. He messaged in advance to find out our music taste and then crafted an evening all around our selection. It was a truly great evening and I highly recommend booking him for a tour.The best!

Wanted to experience live music during our Paris stay. Danilo took the time to understand what we wanted, and what we expected. Then he led us to a small, family-friendly neighborhood bar where a local singer-songwriter was performing, and afterwards to a hole-In-the-wall concert venue for two sets of Parisian-Algerian fusion band. Great night, great music, and we would have walked right past both events without Danilo’s guidance. Smart, friendly, and plugged into the community. Highly recommend booking a tour with Danilo.

Danilo did a great job of guiding us through a fun night of music and giving us a real taste of Paris nightlife as a Local. Danilo contacted us about our musical tastes and desires. He then told us where to meet him, outside the first venue. The band was so good at second stop we elected to stay there even after Danilo left us. This was a highlight of out Paris experience. I wish I could post videos of the jazz band as they were tremendous. Go on this tour with Danilo!Great Nigh of Live Music!!!

Danilo gave us the best last night in Paris EVER!! He took the time to really customize the music crawl for us and went the extra mile at the end by taking us to a little jazz venue that we never would have found on our own in a million years. He was knowledgable, attentive, funny and made us feel very special. I've already told all of my friends in the States about Danilo and the Music Crawl.Barbara

Danilo is a passionate muso who will tailor a tour exactly to your needs. He is organised and very courteous. He made sure wherever he took us that my wife could see and was comfortable and that we were well looked after. We went to 2 clubs - one with Beatles covers bands and the other an underground club which had an ongoing blues jam with a rotating cast of members. At both places we were right up close to the action which suited us. After Danilo made sure that we were catching the right train home and he even followed up on an issue that I had with another With Locals Host. Highly Recommended If Your Are A Music Fan You Should Book This Tour

Danilo thoughtfully scouted and planned our “Music Crawl” based on our situation & the available musical performances available. He gave us a great experience appropriate for my teenage granddaughter & me in places you won’t typically find tourists. Just what we wanted! He was knowledgeable courteous & hip to the local music culture. I would highly recommend him & am, in fact, contacting friends about his services for their upcoming trip to Paris.

Danilo was a fantastic host! My friends and I went out on a Friday night in Paris with Danilo and saw three bands at clubs we would never have found on our own. Danilo was in contact prior to tour to better understand the kind of music we liked and he matched up the evening perfectly. Would highly recommend going on the live music crawl with him if you are in Paris. Best, AndyVery fun!

This was a fantastic evening. Danilo was very personal, as if we had been friends forever. He shared his love of music with us and we talked about our common interests. The conversation flowed very easily He opened our eyes and ears to the music scene in Paris and suggested a number of other places for us to try. This was just the impetus we needed to explore more of the exciting Parisian Nightlife.A Night on the Town

The evening started off ok however Danilo exceeded all expectations when he took us to a Jazz Club that was hosting a jam session. The musicians were outstanding....extremely skilled and very high energy. We had an option to go to a third location but chose to stay. We couldn't imagine that another venue could offer a better experience. Danilo provided a unique, personalized experience that we thoroughly enjoyed. We Music Crawl

Danilo gave my 22 year old granddaughter and myself a memorable tour of the club music scene in Paris's Bastile neighborhood. He keeps up to date on what is going on in many music venues and had took us to two different clubs. We heard alternative rock and electronic hip hop music. Both clubs were small, dark, but not too crowded. We skpped lines going. This was unique for me and my granddaughter was thrilled. Paris Music Scene

This was one of the highlights of Paris for me and my 20 year old son. We thought we had seen some amazing music on our trip up to this point, but Danilo took us to the best. He is a delight to be with, an amazing saxophonist, and we partied and danced in an area of Paris we would have never found without him. The best tables were saved and waiting for us wherever we went. We even got to watch him play . Don’t miss this!Fun, unique and inspiring! Dont miss this!

If you’re on the fence about this — don’t be. I attended this event as a solo traveler looking for some good music, and Danilo was able to curate an incredible evening — a truly special snapshot of some of the most charming and idyllic performances I’ve seen in a long time.

Thanks to Danilo - it was a really cinematic and memorable experience, the jazz and music he handpicked for us was no short of amazing, and we toured three different venues with a surprise ending when Danilo engaged in a sax performance (and he indeed is a good player). The venue and seat selection was top-notch, and Danilo is a lukewarm and open host who made my evening out special. Definitely a must for all the music lovers in Paris!The Paris Live Music Crawl with a Musician
