Great to chat and walk around with a local to the area! We hit the highlights of Paris from the view of a local. Heads up, there are no tickets involved. In the description it says they are, but the inclusions does not have tickets. Kinda confusing, but it was a great time!!

Easy to book, and meeting place was easy to find. Our guide Olivia walked up to us like a long lost friend up and a quick chat about us and what we wanted and we were off. Seeing historic places is one thing but having stories told about everything you can see and hearing the past was truly immersive. It was my first time using withlocals and I will use again. Highly recommend Olivia. So much local knowledge and I could no have asked for a better tour, or tour guide.

Loved everything about this tour. Really got to feel the essence of Paris. Louis was exceptionally knowledgeable and entertaining. It is worth having a knowledgeable tour guide. There are so many hidden stories and information which one is sure to miss without a tour guide.

Iza was excellent! My kids said this was their favorite tour we took in Paris, and my husband and I agreed. We really got to see a local’s view of the city, and she gave us some amazing local recommendations too, mostly things tourists wouldn’t know about. She was friendly, helpful and super knowledgeable. We loved the insight and experience just learning from her!!

Very knowledgeable guide. A little too heavy on the history for us but it was enjoyable. He walked us all around the Latin Quarter.

We felt that the advertisement for this tour was misleading so we ended up being disappointed overall. We had really wanted to visit Saint Chapelle to see the stained glass windows so I booked this tour based on the interior photo that was shown and we didn't get to see it. Our guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant but there wasn't an itinerary like we had expected so he asked us several times where we would like to go which was awkward and puzzling. When I mentioned Saint Chapelle at the beginning of the tour, he said that he had walked by it on the way to meet us and there was a long line to get in so he wouldn't recommend going there. But that was the primary reason I booked it!

We fell in love with Olivia and her love of Paris. She is so intelligent, articulate and charming. She was able to easily accommodate an older person with walking issues in our small group and answered all of our questions - big and small. I love the concept (and execution) of WithLocals and I’ve already booked another tour after this experience.

With Locals is an excellent company that we have used before being with Olivia. As for this tour, I would highly recommend this and most definitely, Olivia. Olivia made it feel as if we were meeting a friend in Paris. The left bank and over to Ile de Cite was really special. We went to area in the Latin Quarter we never would have gone to. Olivia was engaging and really took an interest as to this tour and time with her. It made our start to Paris most special.

Bibiana was so nice and so knowledgeable, very enthusiastic about the history, and we learned a lot and saw sites we haven't seen before. It was awe inspiring if you love history and viewing wonderful Paris.

Bibiana is so kind and friendly and so knowledgeable. She lead us around the Latin quarter sharing stories of the city and so much history. She was engaging and fun and really showed us some unique and interesting things. We even got a mini lesson on ordering coffee when we took a break in a cafe to escape the rain. We had a great time!
