5.00This walking tour was truly the highlight of my time in Paris! Exploring the Left Bank with such a knowledgeable guide like Yuan/Yuen felt like stepping back in time—every street, café, and hidden corner was brought to life with fascinating stories of history, literature, art, and culture. I loved how he combined historical insight with fun anecdotes, making the experience engaging and easy to follow. The small group size was perfect; it felt intimate, personal, and gave us the chance to ask questions without ever feeling rushed. Walking through the Latin Quarter, seeing the spots where famous writers and philosophers once gathered, and discovering hidden gems I never would have found on my own made the experience unforgettable. The pacing was relaxed, giving us time to soak in the atmosphere, take photos, and really appreciate the beauty of the Left Bank. If you want to experience Paris beyond the typical tourist sights and truly feel its historic soul, I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. An absolute must-do!
Thank You Ewen! Fabulous Tour

5.00Ewen’s tour was the highlight of our holiday! As we meandered through the Left Bank, not too fast and not too slow, he provided us with such rich and detailed commentary, building upon the smattering of an understanding we already had about Roman, Christian, medieval, revolutionary and modern life. I totally recommend this tour for a combination of fun, gentle exercise and knowledge building 🤗
