Our 5-hour tour with Paolo in Paris was far more than just sightseeing — it was a journey we’ll carry in our hearts forever. For me, it was a chance to rediscover a city I’ve always loved. For my 13-year-old daughter, it was her very first time in Paris — and what an unforgettable introduction it was. From the very beginning, Paolo made us feel like we were stepping into a storybook. He took us through the heart of Paris — from world-famous landmarks to quiet, hidden corners that only a true local would know. Every stop came alive with his deep knowledge of history, culture, and architecture, and he had a gift for storytelling that kept both of us completely engaged, both in Spanish and English. What truly stood out was the way he connected with my daughter. He didn’t just talk to her — he involved her, asked her questions, and made sure she felt part of the experience. We laughed, we tasted delicious macarons and crepes, we learned, and we connected — not only with the city, but with each other. Paolo even helped us capture the moments of the day that we might’ve missed otherwise — turning them into lifelong memories. Thank you, Paolo, for creating such a beautiful chapter in our story. This mother-daughter trip was everything I hoped it would be — and more. We can’t wait to come back to Paris… and next time, we’ll bring the whole family to share it with you.An Unforgettable Day 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

Jay was such a wonderful guide. He is incredibly engaging and knowledgeable about the local food but also about Parisien history. We learned so much. It was a delight to get off the beaten path and into a local neighborhood and get a glimpse of life away from all the tourist attractions. We enjoyed Jay and his tour very much! Jay is the best!!

We had a very enjoyable tour of the Marais with Paolo. It has long been our favourite district of Paris and we had visited it several times, but we saw and learned so much more during our tour. Paolo is hugely knowledgeable and makes his tours very interesting but also fun. We felt like we’d had a fascinating conversation rather than a ‘one size fits all’ tour. We thoroughly recommend Paolo. Excellent tour of the Marais

My daughter and I visited Paris for the first time last week. We wanted to make the most of our visit to the Louvre and booked a private tour with Emilie. From the beginning, Emilie displayed exceptional knowledge, enthusiasm, and professionalism that brought the exhibits to life. She connected historical context with the art in a way that was both educational and captivating. Emilie made for a truly memorable experience. The following day, we visited Versailles on our own, and all I could think was that I wished we asked Emilie to be our guide! I highly recommend for anyone looking for an enriching and enjoyable museum visit.Exceptional Museum Tour Experience

The Louvre is overwhelming in size, crowded, and filled with magnificent art. Emilie expertly guided us through, making the experience feel very personal. Her commentary was comprehensive, and the audio system was superb. The price of the tour is expensive, but well worth it. We truly visited the Louvre, thanks to Emilie. Doing it unguided would have been insane.Touring the Louvre with Emilie

Paolo exceeded all expectations. He has a gift for distilling complicated histories into understandable explanations. His passion for art and history are immediately apparent. He guided us through the foundational elements for a first time visitor to Paris, all the while, explaining the significance of everything we passed. He wove in the history of Europe as we strolled. Do not hesitate to contact and book Paolo as your tour guide. You will not be disappointed in the slightest. Thank you, Paolo for welcoming us to Paris!Magnifique!!

5 horas caminando por París con placer y disfrute. Iba con mis padres y al principio tenía miedo de que se fueran a cansar, pero Paolo domina totalmente las calles, lugares, historias,… tiene un ritmo y manera de mostrarte joyas ocultas que ni sentimos el tiempo. Es un guía extraordinario. Caminata inolvidable

Absolutely worth doing the Trip with Paolo. Lots of interesting details. We were a family of four, the children being 17 and 20. Both not at all interested in being guided around, in arts and especially not that evening. In the end, they asked a lot of questions and told us, that Paolo was great and despite they didn't want to go out again, it was worth it participating. My husband and I loved the tour and the way, Paolo presented all the information. He was humerous, had lots of patience with the kids and didn't loose the good mood so in the end, all of us had a really good time. Thanks so much, Paolo!Adorable

Our family of five (with kids ages 9, 12 and 15) had a wonderful time getting an insider’s view of Paris with Paolo. Not only is he very knowledgeable about the history of the city (architectural styles, the monarchy, the Revolution, Napoleon and beyond), he also is great fun to spend the day with. He entertained all of us, made sure to engage the kids and shared interesting stories that we never would have learned on our own. He also gave us great tips for the rest of our stay, including texting us several outstanding restaurant recommendations after the tour had concluded. Paolo has a very warm and welcoming personality, and he is just a fascinating person in general, having lived in many cities around the world. By the end, it felt like we had a friend in Paris. Paolo’s tour was absolutely a highlight of our trip. I highly recommend booking this special experience with him. Excellent Local Guide

Our Musee d'Orsay Tour with Marc was a highlight of our time in Paris. He was extremely knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. His tour included an overview of the museum itself, and it's transformation from a railroad station. Then it was off to the galleries with a focus on a number of French artists and the history and development of several artistic movements they were part of. Marc responded promptly to all inquiries leading up to the tour. We had a great time. Highly recommend!Orsay

The tour with Paolo was an absolute highlight of our trip to Paris! He is incredibly friendly and personable, and from the very first moment, we felt completely at ease. His passion for Paris is contagious, and his knowledge of the city, its history, and its hidden corners is truly impressive. We saw the iconic sights , but what made the tour special were the charming neighborhoods and hidden gems Paolo showed us—places you’d never find without a local guide. He shared fascinating stories and gave us his unique perspective on Paris—insightful, entertaining, and full of life. What we especially appreciated was how flexible he was, tailoring the experience to our tour. Bottom line: If you want to truly experience Paris, not just see it, Paolo is the guide you need. 100% recommended!Absolute highlight in paris

We spent the day with Emilie touring both the Louvre & D’Orsay with lunch in the park in between. Emilie provided us with head sets so we could clearly hear her stories, background and history of everything we viewed today. Emilie was sensitive to our limitations and accommodated accordingly. Emilie was knowledgeable, informative and answered all of our questions. Her depth of knowledge both historically and academically added an unforeseen and greatly appreciated element to our experience in both museums. Emilie is kind, compassionate and passionate about her trade as a guide. Her English is wonderful as was her sense of humor! We highly recommend Emilie as a guide while in Paris, especially for the Louvre & D’Orsay!!Exceptional Guide for Louvre & D’Orsay

We had an awkward start through no fault of Emilie’s. The Lourve opened an hour late and there was at least a couple thousand people in line. Emilie kept us comfortable and entertained. She also helped keep our spot as second in line while countless other groups tried push their way to the front or “make friends” at the head of the line. Once inside Emilie gave us a wonderful tour and even spent extra time with us to make up for the late start. Highly recommend her!Emilie is the best!

Thank you so much Emilie for our fantastic tour of the Louve! We can't rave enough about Emilie and are so thankful we booked the Louve with her. We didn't give her a "must see" list of art to see, we are experienced museum goers so we left it to Emilie to show us her version of the Louve. We spent a fair bit of time learning to history of the museum itself rather than running from one masterpiece to the next and are we the better for it! There is a vast part of the original medieval fortress that predates the museum that many people miss. We learned all about it and so enjoyed this part of the tour! After teaching us the history of the Louve, we did see several "must see's" as well. I also wanted to visit the Couture Exhibit and Emilie made sure we knew exactly how to get to the beginning of that show. We could not be happier with her and highly recommend Emilie as a guide! Thanks again Emilie!!Absolutely Wonderful!!

It was such a wonderful and knowledgeable tour. Lucien is a bubbly, kind, passionate and informative person who gave us such a great experience. We learned more about Paris than we would have ever known — he knew answers to every question, questions that didn’t even pertain to the actual content of the tour itself. Me and my partner were very happy and thoroughly impressed with our experience! Historic WW2 walking tour

Emilie was great at communicating before our visit about meeting and tickets. She kept us on schedule and showed us a large variety of the collection in only 2 hours which I know we could not have done on our own. She also was informative about the art without being dry. She also took us to the gallery we wanted to visit after our tour was over to make sure we didn’t get lost. I would book with her again. Great morning at the louvre

The Paris Saint-Oeun flea market can be overwhelming! In fact, my husband and I have bern there many times. Our tour with Lucien made all the difference! He’s smart and interesting as well as flexible. He helped us find a beautiful, hand-carved statue of the Virgin Mary … even though his speciality is a market overview rather than finding specific items. Wonderful tour! Flea Market with Lucien!
