We had the BEST time with Carlos

This is the first time we’ve ever booked a private tour guide, and the experience was fantastic. Carlos was funny, knowledgeable, personable, and patient. It was more like touring the city with a good friend that knows a lot about the city that he loves. If/when e ever return to Paris, we will definitely book with Carlos again. I can’t recommend Carlos enough. Amazing day!

Wandering in Paris our way

We had a wonderful tour with Gelsomina! We started in St. Germain, walking through the beautiful Luxembourg Gardens. All along the way, Gelsomina talked about interesting facts that we didn’t know before and pointed out things that we would have missed on our own. We also wandered through the Latin Quarter, Ille de la Cite and parts of Le Marais. Gelsomina was very informative, thoughtful and took us exactly where we wanted to go. Don’t hesitate to take a tour with her when you are in Paris! Thanks, Gelsomina, for a lovely morning, Sandi and Alan
