Got to skip the very long line. Wonderful conversation with the knowledgeable guide. The Opera House is worth a visit.

Dane_V

Nick was excellent and answered all of our questions with class and humor. A wonderful tour. His knowledge of art, and Paris as well as his command of English made this an enjoyable educational experience

mariedesjardins

I thoroughly enjoyed the behind the scenes tour of the Opera Garnier. The guide was very informative about the history of the famed building. This architectural gem featured statues, gold-encased frescoes, and the beautiful Cigalle ceiling. It was the perfect activity for a rainy September afternoon in Paris.

Randy_M

Friendly and knowledgeable. Knew some unique facts. Very accommodating to any requests Even took us to an added attraction outside the opera

RICHARD_K

Nick was immensely knowledgeable and friendly. The huge downside of our tour is that we were unable to enter the theater that day which was an incredible disappointment. While it was nice to learn about artwork in the grand entrance & hallways, it was all anticlimactic because we could not see or learn anything about the theater which was largely why we booked the tour in the first place. Nick was an A+ but given what we paid for this private tour and that we never even got a glimpse of the theater, it was pretty disappointing.

Mary_S

Nick was a great guide, but the tour was underwhelming for the price, and there were no “behind-the-scenes” or private entrance as advertised. It’s was an overpriced personal guided tour that you could really do yourself.

Vernon_K

Nick was an excellent and attentive guide and his explanations of, and insight into, the various statues and their meanings was greatly appreciated.

Jeff_B

Nick, the tour guide, was excellent! Very knowledgeable, accommodating and personable. Highly recommend! We will use him for other tours as well.

Nick was a great guide and gave us a detailed walkthrough of the opera house. The building itself is one of the most beautiful ones we've seen in France. Very pleasant tour, you won't regret it!
