Boris’s English was impeccable. His depth of knowledge about the Gothic, Renaissance, and Greek influences in the city of Paris made me understand the iconic landmarks with ease. He took his time to answer our questions. He was very approachable which added a special flair to our tour.
Mila is the best. So nice and so informative. Great History and extreme knowledge of art. Great day she is so organized and just do nice to be with. Great Day
Nila was an awesome and knowledgeable guide and flexed our tour to what we wanted to see. The walking tour through Montmartre was the highlight!
Nila was great and guided us through Montmartre and to various Paris sights that we wanted to see. Very flexible tour and tailored to what we wanted to see and do!
We had a wonderful walking tour from Tuileries Gardens to Arc De Triumph. We were a family of four with two teens. Our guide Amy was excellent!!! Very very friendly and had thorough knowledge about the places and their history. She guided us through the iconic spots and gave loads of information that my son was able to write about the trip at school. Highlights was high tea at Laduree with best macarons in town and ice cream. Amy was very patient and accommodating, giving enough time at places for pictures. Would highly recommend Amy the tour and our guide Amy!!
Thanks for the lovely words - we are very happy to have Amy as a part of our group. She enjoyed conversation with your group a lot too. I hope we have you as a guest again soon. Kind regards, Boris, Paris in person private tours
Amy communicated early, and was extremely friendly. We were impressed by both her warmth as well as her knowledge of French history. Highly recommend
Our tour with Mila far exceeded our expectations!!! Mila’s knowledge about Paris and all of the sites that we wanted to see was exceptional!! Her insights and ability to teach us about various aspects of the art in Orsay Museum proved us with many interesting conversations during our tour and afterwards! She helped us navigate the underground and efficiently planned all that we wanted to see. Not only is she a top rate tour guide but we thoroughly enjoyed her company!! She is a gem and a very pleasant tour companion! The owner of the company helped us get fast track tickets to the museum bc our time was so limited. Book with this company. You will be very pleased with the level of professionalism and expertise!
The 6-hour tour of Paris was such a pleasure with Amy as our guide. She asked what we wanted to see, and then shaped the tour around us, seeming to know everything there was to know about French history. A car drove us from location to location, and Amy suggested a great restaurant for lunch. (Le Procope) We saw everything we wanted to see in Paris during the tour, which was handy since we only had a couple of days to spend in the city. We highly recommend this guide and this tour company.
We had a private tour with Mila. Mila showed us around Paris and was very interesting. Her knowledge of Paris history was extensive. Mila made us feel relaxed.
Barbara our guide was excellent- informative and fun and our driver Char was excellent as well. Best investment for a private overview of Paris highlights. You will not be disappointed!!
