As an American and former frequent flyer to Paris, I understand the anxieties of visiting Paris for the first time. After years of work I have created this unique tour and I invite you to join me and discover the true Paris and its past.
Come and embark on a captivating journey through the heart of Paris. We'll trace a scenic path that unfolds its historical charm beginning at Fontaine Saint Michel. Here you'll be oriented with the geography of the city and be greeted by the beautiful entrance into the Latin Quarter. After this you'll stroll along the Seine's promenade and discover the charm of the Bouqanistes that flank the river. But this tour isn't only sightseeing. You will leave the tour with stories of drama hidden in the walls of the Louvre, and learn about the layered past of Notre Dame and how it will continue to unfold into the future.

Loved his insight into the history of the various eras. Very personable and fun. We have been to Paris several times but took the grandkids this time. We still discovered new things!

It was described as a small tour, but exceeded all my expectations and left me thoroughly impressed. Throughout the tour, Ezra provided me with valuable information, making every minute count. He is very friendly and knowledgeable and makes you very welcome. It was an extremely cold day but he was still so enthusiastic talking about the history. I realised that I previously passed by some places without any knowledge and after my tour, I felt I learned a lot about the history of Paris. I highly recommend taking a tour with Ezra if you ever get a chance.

It was my first time in Paris and I was a bit nervous since I went alone. But Ezrah helped introduce me to the city with his warm personality and humor and valuable insight on the tour. One of my favorites was not even one of the major tourist spots that you would think! I had no idea there was a little garden in the middle of Paris called “Square Du Very Galants, it was so beautiful, I’m glad he included it. He also gave me some insight into things I could do in the city on my own! Will be returning with family next year and hoping to take them along on another tour with Ezrah!

First time to Paris and I could not have chosen a more genuine and exquisite tour of this city. Ezrah is an articulate and knowledgeable guide and an absolute pleasure to adventure with. I highly recommend this experience!

I wasn’t sure what to do with my extra time in Paris, until I was recommended to take the Heart of Paris Tour. I’m not much of a history person, But some how Ezrah managed to draw my interest in the rich history of Paris. Even if you are not interested in the history the sights you see on this tour are truly stunning. Definitely recommend booking a Heart of Paris Tour.
