Cinthia our tour guide was awesome, she helped us see all the important tourist and local spots of our Paris. My wife and I got to experience an espresso in a local shop, see residential areas of how Parisians live, walk the hills and back roads, learn all about the history of the many sightseeing places, and we also rode our first subway (metro) and public bus experience!
Thanks so much for appreciating our full day Paris experience.
Our tour of Paris was absolutely unforgettable, all thanks to our incredible tour guide! She brought the sights to life with thrilling stories and fascinating history that had us captivated at every turn. It was truly our best adventure in the City of Light!
Thanks for such a positive review and happy to read your experience was a unforgettable one.
This tour was truly the highlight of our trip. Cinthia Ramirez was such a wonderful tour guide. She was so knowledgeable and so incredibly passionate about what she was explaining to my family. I will never forget the day we spent with her as it was the highlight of our trip to Europe. She hit every highlight that we wanted to see in a way that was truly special for my family. I can not rate this tour high enough. Cinthia made a lasting impression on me and my family.
We truly appreciate your words. Our tour guides are all professionals and certified as well as sincere with our visitors. Thanks so much for your words. We are happy to hear you all enjoyed and that you will keep this moment in your memory.
An amazing day! Cinthia was incredibly knowledgeable, charming, and entertaining. It is hard to sum up in words one of the best experiences of our life. We did the tour the day after arriving for the 1st time in Paris, the rest of our week in Paris seemed like we had been there many time! PS - you get to see where Jim Morrison really died.
Thanks so much for experiencing our full day experience in Paris. We are very happy to know you enjoyed it as much as Cinthia did. See you next time.
Excellent tour 100% recommended, our CINTHIA Guide made this experience somewhat unmatched. We traveled with my 3 children and she explained everything very well and both the children and we enjoyed it very much. Thank you very much to our Cinthia Guide for helping us and making this visit something amazing! We learned a lot from her!

Gracias por su buen humor, cordialidad y motivación, ingredientes importantes para que una visita exitosa. Hasta la próxima.
Marie is the best! The Mona Lisa was our favorite moment! She was so patient and figured out what our children found the most interesting and made sure to point out the things that they would find especially fascinating. She was truly a delight! We saw so much and are so grateful for the memories!
We are so happy to hear that the whole family spent a great time with Marie. Thanks
Very fun experience with Cinthia Ramirez! We loved this way of explaining the works to us. Cinthia took us on a discovery tour of the museum with great professionalism. We highly recommend visiting the Louvre with such an authentic guide!

This private tour with Cinthia was beyond my expectations! She is so warm and welcoming and her knowledge of the city seems boundless. My daughter was entertained and truly engaged by her which is not always an easy feat with teens! I highly recommend this tour if you want to learn about the sites in Paris not just “see” Paris! Merci beaucoup Cinthia❤️
Thanks so much for sharing your experience about Paris in Tour and the tour guide Cinthia. We are glad you enjoyed it as much as her. 'De rien'
