Experience the best of
Paris with Withlocals

"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."

"Paola was a fantastic guide - we learned so much from her. She was also excellent with our kids when 8, 10 and 12, sharing stories and facts that they’d understand and remember. "

"Paola led our family of 5, 1 with a cane, 1 sulky teenager and an enthusiastic 9 year old on a wonderful tour of the louvre. She kept our kids engaged and the pacing was appropriate for our party. My wife and I had done the louvre by ourself years ago and the experience with Paola was noticeably better. Overall perfect tour."

"Julien was a wonderful tour guide! He really explained the meanings behind the art and was able to engage my children in all the paintings and art that we saw! Now the whole family will look and view art differently! Thank you Julien!"

"My family of four-including two tween girls- are so glad we booked this guided tour of the Louvre with Paola. From her welcoming greeting, she effortlessly led us through the intense crowds. Her highlights tour was informative & engaging, like talking with a knowledgable dear friend! Also appreciate she took family photos & shared her tips for taking great pictures of the artworks themselves. Highly recommend!"

"Paola is a great guide and lover of the ‘story’ or history behind the artist and the art object being viewed. She used her iPad as an adjunct to display explainations of art pieces she was describing, mading history come alive! Her knowledge was excellent and extensive. Paola was also gregarious and very considerate of our physical needs to stop and rest now and then. She interceded when our view was obstructed, and made the ‘overwhelming Louvre’ manageble. The Louvre art made us ‘Awe struck and inspired’. We highly recommend Paola as a great guide! Carol & Faith"

"Our family of four loved our Louvre tour with Emilie! I told her our daughters' ages in advance and she prepared a special tour for them, and made sure to point out things of interest for their age level. She saved us a TON of time from skipping the entry line, to being able to use the group visit rest room, to making sure we saw all the important works within our two hours there (the kids can only really muster so much time in a museum before they start losing it :)). Her knowledge of the art and the history was fantastic, and she answered all our questions patiently. She really explained the history behind each painting and made it interesting for all of us. We learned a ton and she was worth every penny. I highly recommend her!"

"Giedre was a fantastic tour guide. She was so knowledgeable, sweet, kind…just over the top! I was so sad to part ways after the tour. I felt like I made a new BFF. I recommend her highly! ❤️"

"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!"

"Paolo was a fantastic guide through Montemartre. He shared interesting historical details, fun facts about different locations, buildings and the area. We were traveling as a group with a 10 year old, 2 40 something’s and a 70 year old - and he was interesting and engaging to everyone. We stopped to purchase snacks along the way as we needed and Paolo was very helpful in picking the best spots. He even waited in a fairly long line with us for Sacre Couer which seemed above and beyond. At the end of the day he gave us additional tips for other spots to check out and even provided a dinner recommendation after we had parted ways. Highly recommend!"
