      Nice Afternoon touring Marais

      "My partner and I wanted to do a tour during our first time in Paris and we were not disappointed. Bartosz was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed our afternoon touring the Marais area. We learned a lot about the architecture and how the city's residents built the area up over hundreds of years. Our tour was 3 hours but went by quickly, we didn't feel rushed and enjoyed what we got to see. I would definitely book another private tour WithLocals as I enjoyed the personal attention and ability to customize the tour to our interests."

      A stroll through Montemarte

      "We had a lovely morning with Olivia as we strolled through the streets of Montmarte learning about the history of the locals and the architecture. Olivia was knowledgeable and insightful, easy to chat to and answered all our questions!! Our trip culminated in the views from Sacre Couer which was a delightful way to end! Thank you for our morning and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Olivia for future guests!"

      Paris from Montmartre and down the hill

      "Thomas came right to our hotel to pick us up and start the tour. We started learning right away as the little plaza in front of the hotel has some great history about the local artist community. We moved from there to amazing hidden gems throughout Montmartre and then zigzagged our way down through several neighborhoods to see beautiful churches and fun hidden passages and never used royal palaces. It was a great day and Thomas helped us learn about Paris from an insider’s perspective. "
