5.00Natalie was absolutely amazing and made our night tour of Paris truly unforgettable. From the moment we began, her warm personality and deep knowledge of the city made us feel instantly engaged. She shared so many fascinating historical facts and hidden stories about Paris that we never would have discovered on our own. Whether we were admiring the Eiffel Tower lit up at night or strolling along the Seine, she brought the city’s rich history to life with vivid detail and passion. Her insights added so much depth to every landmark we visited. We especially appreciated how she answered all our questions with patience and enthusiasm, making the experience feel personal and tailored. Natalie’s storytelling made the city sparkle even more than the lights around us. We walked away with not only beautiful memories but also a deeper appreciation for Paris. Highly recommend this tour and Natalie as a guide!

Not a Ghost Tour

1.00This tour was not a ghost tour. It was filled with interesting facts but having gone on ghost tours around the world, I expected verified tales of the unexplained. With a different title, this tour was very good, but there were so many opportunities to add a bit of the unknown and spooky, that it just missed the mark.
No ghosts

1.00This was a history tour, we only stayed 30 minutes, in that time no ghosts had been mentioned If you want a history tour then it’s probably great, if you are going for ghosts don’t bother
Very informative
