Time flies learning about a darker side!
We had a wonderfully entertaining afternoon walking and learning about a darker side of Paris. Lucien was easy to understand, flexible on what we saw, educational and fun. Lots of helpful suggestions about what else to do also. He’s very knowledgeable!

Entertaining tour
We greatly enjoyed our 2 and 3/4 hour tour with Luis in the Latin Quarter. He showed used around the Sorbonne and other interesting streets around there and in Saint-Germain de Pres. An added treat was to taste flavored, vinegars and olive oils as well as different types of preserves from local shops.

An exceptional guide
My wife and I had a wonderful 3-hour tour with Lucien. His English is excellent, and his knowledge of French history is vast. His stories were interesting; no risk of being bored with Lucien!
I would not hesitate to use Lucien again.

Not hour typical walking tour
We loved Lucien’s creative stories about the legends and grisly details from history. It was memorable and Lucien was a wonderful storyteller.
