Walking tour of old and new Paris

Had a very pleasant and educational walking tour with Neda. In addition to seeing the main sites along the route (Notre Dame, Places Royals) she also showed us a side of Paris we didn’t know.

First day, first tour.

We are from Canada and we decided to take a guided walking tour. This three-hour tour was very informative and our guide gave us the necessary information on the fundamental points of the city of Paris (culture, history, anecdotes, and restaurants). I highly recommend all visitors book this tour because it gives you a very good overview for a first day in the capital. Thank you very much to our very friendly guide Neda.

Wish for more information

Neda was very nice. I love the walk we did and the sites we saw. I would have preferred a more in depth explanation of the history that occurred at the sites we saw. It was just pointed out and described as 16th century without much detail.

Thank you very much for your review. Please note that there are certified guides who can provide more in-depth historical information, but they are naturally more expensive. My tour is a walking tour designed to cover five areas in three hours. Given the limited time, it’s difficult to go into great detail about the history of each place while visiting them all.
