Fantastic Afternoon
We had an excellent time with Carlos Hernan. He did a great job tailoring the walk to our interests, including those of my 6-year old son.

Phenomenal experience superior guide
We scheduled this tour as both A birthday celebration and a bonjour Paris celebration. Being amateur cooks we were curious to see Paris from the viewpoint of local. The tour was more than we could’ve asked for. The food experience was wonderful, but the best part of all was our tour guide Gelsomina. She is incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and was able to provide not only food related information, but history and culture. A wonderful experience. Think she should have her own TV program to promote Paris and Parisian food. Would highly recommend to anybody interested in food, history, culture, and general knowledge. Definitely a high point of our entire trip.

Wonderful tour of Paris
We’ve been to Paris a few times before, but our private walking tour with Carlos gave us a completely fresh perspective. He took us to hidden corners and lesser-known gems we had never discovered on previous visits. Carlos was fun, engaging, and easygoing, with a great smile and a warm energy that made the day truly enjoyable.
He tailored the tour to suit our interests and pace, making it feel completely personal. Along the way, he shared fantastic recommendations for restaurants, museums, and galleries to check out during the rest of our stay — tips that turned out to be spot-on. It was a perfect introduction to Paris, both for first-timers and seasoned visitors. Highly recommended!
