5.00Both the tour and our tour guide, Louise, were marvelous. We make a habit of taking a walking tour when we travel to new places, and this one felt extra special because of the specific, important historical storytelling that was woven throughout. It was a treat, too, to learn from Louise, who clearly cares about and is studied in the history of this tour and Paris. We hope to find more tours like this in future travels. Great for those who do and do not know some of the background history!
Best tour, best guide!
