"Carlos was my guide to see Notre Dame. It was easy to meet him there, since he was attentive and responsive to texts. He was very helpful and thoughtful in making it easy for me to navigate the crowds on my mobility scooter. He taught me a lot about Notre Dame’s history and restoration. He explained the artwork in all the chapels and even sat with me to pray for a few minutes in front of the Crown of Thorns. I couldn’t have asked for a more thorough or interesting tour! "
"We did really appreciate this tour with Gelsomina. She is a very inspiring and lively, and she listen to you and not just talk herself. The tour in the newly fully renovated Notre Dame cathedral was breathtaking and very informative. I have seen the Cathedral many times during the last 20 years, but this was a completely new experience. Our tour also included part of the Latin Quarter. And we learned new things about many parts of it. Gelsomina was a very kind and knowledge person that we liked very much not just as a guide, but as a person. She really took care of us. This was important to us since my wife do not walk very fast and uses two sticks. We will book her again the next time we visit Paris. So, we can really recommend her. "
"We had the pleasure of having Welly as a guide in 2023. When we returned to Paris to this year, we were excited to find he was available to give us a tour again, so we booked him again. As before, Welly was professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. We learned so much from him and also had a lot of fun. We’ve visited Paris multiple times, but Welly is still able to surprise us with so many historical facts and general knowledge about Paris. We will definitely book him again in the future! "
"Welly was easy to spot at the designated meeting point, which was also easy to find. The tour was very interesting full of information about the history of Paris. We visited a number of areas in the Latin quarter looking at churches and architecture. Welly was pleasant friendly and happy to walk at our pace. He was able to answer questions and made the whole experience great fun. I would highly recommend him."
"Iza led six of us (all in our 50s) on a walking tour of the Latin Quarter and Ile de Cite. She was fantastic in every way! She was knowledgable, engaging, attentive and responsive for the entire 3+ hours we spent together. I recommend Iza for any excursion in Paris!"
"We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Lucien on the Jewish history tour. Lucien is charming, a little quirky (delightfully so), and extremely knowledgable. It was a bit rainy as we walked thru the Latin Quarter, over Ile de la Cite to see Notre Dame, and end up in le Marais. We learned much and would highly recommend Lucien for any tour he may offer!! Thanks again Lucien."
"Gelsomina is a treasure. Though we have visited Paris several times, we were delighted by the walk and talk we had with Gelsomina. It was great being able to see, learn about, and better understand Paris and its people through the eyes of someone who has such a passion for the city. Along with seeing some sights we had never visited before, Gelsomina helped us see many places with new eyes. Most especially, we enjoyed learning about (and seeing) the reconstruction of Notre Dame Cathedral. We highly recommend this tour if you are new to the City or visiting for the 10th time!"
"We toured the Latin quarter with Gelsomina and couldn’t recommend Gelsomina highly enough. A font of knowledge, answered all of our questions, shared interesting local sights with us, in a very relaxed and friendly way. It was our fourth trip to Paris and our first tour with “with locals” and would book again without hesitation."
