Your Itinerary

Place de la Republique

(Pass by)

Explore the trendy Le Marais area on the banks of the Seine, and nearby Place de la République, where three neighborhoods converge. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Le Marais

(Pass by)

Paris’s oldest market, luxurious mansions and sipping vin rouge at a pavement bistro. See the playground for Paris’s most trendy – the crooked, cobbled, historical lanes that are alive with bars, restaurants, vintage shops, and jewelry boutiques. But there’s more to Le Marais than gorgeous “I-woke-up-like-this” locals queuing for pita at L'As du Fallafel. With your host to lead the way, you’ll explore its thriving art scene at upmarket galleries, amble through Musée Picasso, and visit iconic sites like Rue de Montmorency, where Nicolas Flamel’s house – the oldest in Paris – stands. Stumble across the district’s hidden secrets, like the utterly picturesque Passage de l’Ancre, where a quaint boutique sells umbrellas and walking sticks, and relax with a coffee or a glass of wine at a classic bistro. Très chic. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalised experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Marche Aligre

(Pass by)

You might head a mile east to admire the pastel-painted houses of Rue Crémieux and indulge in exquisite regional cheeses at the district’s famous Marché d'Aligre market. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Coulee Verte Rene-Dumont

Walk through this green Haven and discover the greener side of Paris IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Jardin du Luxembourg

(Pass by)

From relaxing on the elegant lawns of the Jardin du Luxembourg to exploring secret spots like the Coulée Verte, an elevated railway track where both wild and landscaped gardens have begun to flourish, your local insider will show you a Paris you’ll adore. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Montmartre

(Pass by)

Discover Montmartre, perhaps the city’s most quintessentially Parisian district. As the city’s artistic neighborhood for centuries, perhaps you’ll discover the square where Picasso once painted, or visit Espace Dali, an eclectic collection of the artist’s quirky sculptures. Your host wouldn’t let you miss visiting the Sacré-Coeur, the stunning basilica which watches over the neighborhood, but they’ll also take you further north into Clignancourt, an overlooked area that’s home to delicious street eats and the Marché aux puces where you could while away hours browsing antique treasures. Take in the sweeping views of the whole city or sink into a chair in a classic Parisian cafe and indulge in the art of the flâneur - people watching. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Porte de Clignancourt

(Pass by)

Your host could reveal areas often forgotten by tourists, like multicultural Porte de Clignancourt, an unassuming corner of Montmartre - the famous arts district - where you’ll find Paris’s most beloved flea market. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Les Buttes Chaumont

(Pass by)

You could you’ll amble through the Latin Quarter’s meandering streets towards the historic Panthéon – or maybe you’ll head to les Buttes Chaumont for a history lesson of a different kind. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Batignolles

(Pass by)

You could experience life everywhere from the iconic districts in the heart of the city to more off the beaten path quartiers like Batignolles, an enclave in the north-eastern reaches of the city which will leave you swooning with its dreamy parks and cafe culture. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Oberkampf

(Pass by)

From the Left Bank to the street-art plastered Oberkampf, you’ll discover the neighborhoods which are known for their effortlessly cool nocturnal personalities. All roads seem to lead to Rue Oberkampf - it’s impossible to resist being drawn into the hip bar scene here. There’s always charming Le Marais, or perhaps head west for the ultimate view of the Eiffel Tower lit up in all its glory. IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Delishiya was amazing - knowledgeable, fun and she really understood what we were looking for - an off-the-beaten track tour of the Marais neighborhood, the Jewish highlights - a Temple, Anne Frank garden and Holocaust memorial, the best falafel in town, and a wonderful bakery - plus fascinating historical churches and buildings that are now museums and libraries, wonderful little cafes and vintage shops. Plus she gave us great tips for further exploring and evening activities and an app to help us get around Paris on our own. She is a gem, and really added the perfect touch to our Paris Ian experience!

Our assigned guide Sabrina was a nice person and knowledgeable on the spots we went through and we had a great 8 hours in Paris loaded with the must-see spots in a slow pace (we wanted to take it slowly). She was also kind to guide my 6 year old to make an order in a bakery in French, that was truly a great experience! She also helped us to take great photos which is also a plus for us!

Rahul was very nice and quite flexible, we saw many interesting sites and he was very willing to tailor/change the tour as we were moving.

During my business trip to France, I seized the opportunity to explore Paris during a long weekend. Knowing little about the city and lacking a planned itinerary, I opted to book a private tour. I was matched with Pascal, an exceptional guide. With his expertise, he familiarized me with navigating Paris and unveiled numerous off-the-beaten-path gems beyond the typical landmarks, places I would have never found myself. Pascal tailored the tour to my interests seamlessly, ensuring a memorable and personalized experience. Throughout our exploration, he shared his extensive knowledge of places, people, and history making it all the more enlightening and enjoyable. As our tour concluded, Pascal recommended the top attractions aligned with my interests, ensuring I made the most of my limited time in the city. Thanks Pascal!

We had a very pleasant tour of Paris. Maria G. Took us to ‘hidden gems’ that we had not found on our own. She shared fun facts and kept a good pace.

We had a great walking tour with Ewan! He communicated with me in advance to learn our interests and finding him at the meeting point was easy! He was flexible with us (which was important to us) and made adjustments as needed so when my son declared he needed to eat in the middle of the tour, Ewan took us to a charming bakery. One of our favorite parts of the tour was the elevated walkway on an old metro line!

I had an 8 hour layover in Paris and had the best time with my tour guide Sabrina! She was so knowledgeable and took me to the best spots in Paris! We even stopped at a few well known places so I could sample some of the French foods! I got to see everything I wanted and had enough time to get back to the airport! Great tour overall!

We just returned from an absolutely amazing 6 hour walking tour with Hristo. He met us at our hotel and took us on an incredible journey around Paris. We learned so much about Paris, the sites, the history and the people. Seeing Paris on foot with such a terrific guide was absolutely priceless. I highly recommend this tour and tour company. So grateful that we spent the day with Hristo!!

We did an 8 hour walking tour of Paris. Our guide was Pascal. He was absolutely wonderful. While I had been to Paris before, my wife has never been. Before our trip, we filled out a questionnaire about our interests (we are foodies and love to shop in small local boutiques. He customized our tour based on our interests and preferences, Whenever we visit a new city, we like to schedule an all day private tour with a local guide to give us an overview of the location. Pascal met us at our hotel right off the Champs Elysees. We walked the neighborhood near the Tour Eiffel then he took us on the Metro to visit a local farmer's market and shops in Marai. We had lunch together at Chez Paul, a recommendation from Pascal. The food was wonderful. He also showed us how to use the Metro, which we used during our 8-day stay in Paris. I would highly recommend the all day walking tour. We hope that you're fortunate enough to get Pascal as your guide.

Monica P

Completely disappointed by the fact that our tour guide knew nothing about any of the sights, failed to provide much as far as important stops and was admittedly only on his second tour with no training. He was incredibly sweet but was not informed or trained. Our entire group was left feeling let down and frustrated. I blame the tour company for wasting our precious little time in Paris.
