Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"This jazz experience was one of the best nights of my life!! WOW!! Olivia was a fabulous host and really did take me to somewhere with so much history and with such talented musicians. It’s a night I’ll never forget. It was like going out with a friend. She was the perfect host. Thank you very much! :)"
"Danilo was an great guide. We saw 3 fantastic bands in places I would have never found on my own. He asked good questions upfront to help tailor the night to music I would really like. The next day he followed up with more recommendations for the rest of my stay. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to hear the best of Paris."
"I highly recommend this tour with Danilo! I was traveling by myself and wanted to experience more night life and music while still being safe. Danilo made the night perfect! He knew of nice spots to check out and was also super fun to hang out with. We started at a small music venue, then went to a cool brazilian spot and ended at a place near the water. At the end of the night Danilo made sure I got back to my hotel safe. 100/10 would do again!"
"Amazing experience that really brings Paris to life, Danilo was a great host who allowed us to experience an underground music scene we wouldn’t have been able to otherwise, 10 stars if possible don’t miss this unique and memorable opportunity!"

A true Paris Jazz Night is about immersion. It's the intimate, hushed atmosphere of a 'cave' (cellar club), the shared passion for music, and the artistic energy that fills the air. It's a cultural staple.
