It was a lovely tour around some of the places you would not walk. Also the history of the city was really informative

Adam is truly a rock star in the tour industry — he sets the bar very high. We’ve taken many tours all over the world since my sons were ten (now they’re in their mid-20s), and they absolutely loved his tour.
He keeps everyone engaged and makes art come alive. Thanks to his guidance, I now understand what to look for in the three masterpieces at the Louvre — with a true artist’s appreciation. His coaching gave us a deeper understanding not only of the art, but also of Parisian culture. He helped us navigate the cultural differences and made everything feel much more comfortable as foreigners.
He is witty, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable — not an easy combination to find in one tour guide, but he truly has it all.
Now we can only hope your tour guide is Adam ��

Antoine was great! It is a long day but he kept it fun and interesting! Great activity to do when you don’t have a lot of time in Paris or a good first day activity to learn more about the city and get recommendations for the rest of your stay!

Walked at a nice pace, we didn’t feel rushed but kept moving. All major sights and important details pointed out and history explained.
