ル・マレ・パリ散策ツアー： ガイドブックを超えたストーリー

My colleague and I were hosting a small group on a Christmas Market trip in France, and we booked this tour to give them a fun experience during our three days in Paris. As an experiential travel expert, I've booked and experienced many city tours, including several in Paris. James's tour was by far the best I've ever been on. James worked with us every step of the way to customize this tour to the specific needs and desires of our group and easily pivoted as their needs changed throughout the trip. He was amazingly communicative, super easy-going, and delivered a walking tour that was the highlight of the entire trip for our guests, complete with off-the-beaten-path spots in the Marais and quirky stories I've never heard before (and I've lived in Paris). He was super approachable, engaging, and fun during the tour and took some great professional photos of our group, which he shared just a few days later. He's a consummate professional and an extremely nice guy. James is now our "go-to" tour guide for Paris, and we will be using him for any future group or private trips we book in the city. We can't recommend him highly enough.

It was an amazing combination of history and present day culture of the area. My guide was a native English speaker and so he was easy to understand. He’s lived in Paris long enough to understand not only the history of the city but also how Parisians live today.

Le Marais is my favorite arrondissement, and the guide, James, is wonderful. He is knowledgeable, speaks English and French, and he is also a photographer. I've experienced his expertise twice and would highly recommend a tour and photos with him.

A friend put me in touch with James at Paris Love Affair for a walking tour. These tours can live or die by virtue of who your guide is. So to be able to have a brief video chat with James was key in satisfying this risk. We got on instantly. :) Immediately we knew we were going to have a great tour as James was knowledgeable, unscripted, threw in anecdotes beyond the norm because he and his young family live in Paris and he clearly knows it very well. More than that it was obvious he loves this city and he did the city and this tour proud. We enjoyed the tour very much and even bought one of James's own photographic prints of Paris to remind of us this lovely memory. I have already recommended James to two friends visiting in the spring of 25.

Marais is a lovely region to explore. James, our guide made it interesting and fun. He's a great storyteller. I enjoy learning about the hidden gems, the background of some lesser known buildings and even some historical information about local cafe. This was my 2nd tour with him. We did a private tour. As a photographer he sees the world with a wondrous perspective. I highly recommend him and I enjoy his weekly newsletters about Paris. I truly fall in love with Paris more when strolling the streets with James. Even his photography tips are helpful.
