Simon was a wonderful tour guide. He gave great insight into all the areas we visited and his passion and knowledge of the arts was very impressive.<br />Simon spoke and understood English very well and I can definitely recommend him for any future tours.<br />If there was one thing I would have liked was to have spent a bit more time around the Montmarte artists square but that is no reflection on Simon as I understand we had a lot to do ❤️

If you only have one day in Paris, this is the way to do it. The pacing was perfect, nothing felt rushed, yet we covered so much of the city. Every stop felt intentional, with great stories and context that made Paris come alive instead of just feeling like a checklist.<br /><br />Adam was knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about Paris. He knew exactly where to take us for the best views, hidden spots, and classic landmarks, and they made the whole day feel effortless. I loved how organized everything was while still feeling relaxed and fun.<br /><br />By the end of the day, I felt like I had truly experienced Paris, not just seen it. I’d recommend this tour to anyone who wants to make the most of their time in the city. Worth every minute.

Team Adam was amazing! He was informational and it did not feel like a tour with a guide but a tour with a friend or family member! He was funny, entertaining, and again very informative. If I were to take another tour, I would hope to get Adam again! Not 5 but 10 stars and beyond!

This tour was outstanding. Our tour guide Adam was extremely knowledgeable and provided a wonderful and informational experience. He was fun and entertaining, and gave us really good advice about getting around Paris. I could maybe have gone and see this stuff on my own, but it would not have been the same. We learned so much and made friends with the other folks . Thank you! Team Adam for the win! Now I need to get my tattoo.

Adam did a great job. Was very insightful and informative. I couldn't have imagined doing the Louvre without all his knowledge. His experience and ability to share made the day very enjoyable.
Tripadvisor customer · Kevin · Feb 07, 2026 Excellent
Violette is a fabulous guide and introduced us to much more of Paris than we would have been able to do on our own. Thank you for a wonderful day.
