Fantastic time with Carlos
Carlos gave my daughter and me a fantastic 2.5-hour walking tour through Paris that we’ll never forget. He was warm, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable — pointing out historical details and hidden gems we would’ve missed on our own.
What really stood out was how kind and patient he was with my 8-year-old daughter, Sloane. He answered all her questions, matched her pace, and made her feel included every step of the way. That’s not easy to find in a guide, and it meant a lot to us.
If you’re looking for a smart, thoughtful, and genuinely kind guide to help you experience Paris on a deeper level, book Carlos. Highly recommended!

Carlos was prompt,thoughtful,knowlegeable.
Carlos was my guide to see Notre Dame. It was easy to meet him there, since he was attentive and responsive to texts. He was very helpful and thoughtful in making it easy for me to navigate the crowds on my mobility scooter. He taught me a lot about Notre Dame’s history and restoration. He explained the artwork in all the chapels and even sat with me to pray for a few minutes in front of the Crown of Thorns. I couldn’t have asked for a more thorough or interesting tour!

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
