We met our guide Antoine just before 9am and he concluded the tour at 17:01. He was an absolute star; hes extremely friendly, hes funny and his knowledge was unbelievable; we learnt so much in such a short space of time. I cant recommend this tour enough. Youll see so much of Paris, from the quaint little spots to the hustle and bustle of the City. We were taken to a local cafe for a short break and also had the opportunity to visit a local cafe or restaurant for lunch. The choice he recommended did not disappoint. The Louvre was busy as anticipated but the rest of the tour was quiet and relaxed, the busiest parts were the journeys in between spots on the Metro!<br /><br />Dont hesitate to book this tour! And thank you Antoine!

Adam was the best tour guide Ive had on this trip to Europe. Adam was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the tour! We had some hiccups with the Louvre being closed due to employees striking however that did not hinder Adams spirit as he quickly sought other options. In addition, he researched updates from the Louvre to see if would be able to make it inside; Which we did! It is clear Adam has a passion for this work and his witty jokes added another fun layer to the tour. Do yourself a favor and book this tour!
