A worthwhile tour. Nino, our guide, was excellent. He was very engaging and made the tour come alive. We had a great time exploring the streets of Montmartre.
Our tour with Kevin was incredible!! He was insightful and fun and taught us so much about the neighborhood. Highly recommend his tour.
What a great time in Montmartre with Mahmoud and Do Eat Better. Heard great local stories and had delicious sweet treats. This was the perfect short food and stories tour. Gave us a taste of the neighborhood as well as the food. Mahmoud modified the tour based on our likes/dislikes and gave us great suggestions for the rest of our trip. Great time!!!
Kevin did a great job of explaining numerous details Montmatre and fascinating stories about many of the artists. However, I won’t call it a food tour. A couple of little treats don’t make it a food tour in my opinion.
We enjoyed a fantastic tour with Nino. His attention to detail and fun humour made this a great tour. His singing & dancing was second to none ! Will remember all his quirky facts & info. Highly recommend tour
