      Great Food Tour!

      "We had an awesome food tour in Paris with Maxime with our family of four (2 adults/parents, 2 teenagers). He was very accommodating when we needed to reschedule the tour based on when the food shops were open. This was our 5th food tour in different European cities through withLocals, and our family agreed that this tour was our favorite. We highly recommend Maxime!"

      Lovely experience with Olivia in Monmarte

      "We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Oliva. She was knowledgeable about the area and had rapport with the locals in the establishments we visited. This was a great opportunity for my kids to try some new foods. My daughter discovered a new love for Quiche Lorraine and the crepes that we ended with were incredible. It was a good mix of savory and sweet, food, and beverage, with time to sit and rest at some of the stops. She also shared just the right amount of info about the culture, history and art of the area. Highly recommend."

      Truly local food tour with Maxime

      "We booked the 10 Tastings of Paris tour and Maxime was truly amazing. It was obvious he put a lot of care and thought into planning this tour. From the local third wave coffee shop, to the cheese shop, pastries, chocolate and more, it was all amazing. And it was definitely a tour of hidden gems where the locals did their shopping. It was a lot like visiting a friend and getting a tour of their home town. I highly recommend this tour and Maxime as the guide."

      Best Louvre Experience Yet!

      "This was my 3rd visit to the Louvre and by far the best! My wife and I brought our 3 sons (18, 21, 22) for their 1st visit from the states. Julien was excellent! He made sure we negotiated the museum ahead of the crowds and were able to see the great works comfortably. We were all engaged and learned so much about the exhibits and the museum as an institution. My boys loved it! The tour flew by at 3 hours and Julien expertly took us through the highlights of the vast museum. We could have done it all day!"

      Super experience with Gelsomina ("G")

      "My family of 5 had a lovely morning with "G" in Paris recently. She was flexible, knowledgeable, great with children, and adjusted perfectly to the rhythm of our group. The food tour with her was without question a highlight of our trip to Paris and we'd recommend her without reservation. Thanks so much, Gelsomina, for sharing your time with us! "

      Marvelous Montmartre!!

      "Anukool was fantastic! Knowledgeable, friendly, engaging, and he made the climb to Sacré-Cœur gradual, informative and fun. He did his best to keep us cool on one of the hottest days in Paris ever! His background stories on people and places were interesting. If we come back to Paris we’ll definitely request him again. Thank you, Anukool!!"
