A Delicious Welcome to Paris - This was our first trip to Paris! We just landed - quite jet-lagged and hungry when we met Sebastien. Sebastien is a user-friendly guide who warmly welcomed us and led us to a great spot for a quick, pre-tour Croque Monsieur. He is adept at meeting the needs of Paris first-timers looking for a smooth and easy introduction to the city. However, within a short time, it was clear that Sebastien’s extensive knowledge and passion for Paris also makes him a great fit for experienced travelers looking for a deeper appreciation of Parisian culture, history, food (and wine!). Sebastien made our walking tour fun, engaging and educational. He also demonstrated how to use the Metro! Importantly, this tour is in clear and concise English, a huge bonus. SLL accommodates varying ages, levels of sophistication, and interests. The tour exceeded our expectations!

Informative and Lively - Got into Paris the day before, usual nerves about “ how to find our host” the next day! I texted in a panic, Sebastien responded within minutes. The next day was a breeze to meet up. We toured the local markets, while getting the low down on the history of markets and their own quirks. We also got background history on Paris and the different sections of the city.
We ended up on a local Rue, able to walk the cobblestones and enjoy chocolates, a drink and a bite of cheese. Sebastien is full of knowledge and has a love of this area, dating back many years. Loved it!

A must-do for anyone visiting Paris - Sebastien was an amazing tour guide and made this one of the most memorable and fun tours! He was friendly and adaptable, catering to each of our food interests, and he was always willing to share fun facts about Paris and particularly the neighborhood we were in, the 7th arrondissement. I really enjoyed learning more about the history of various monuments in Paris, as Sebastien shared interesting facts that you'd never learn in school. Highly recommend!

Great food tour visit of a Parisian Sunday market with Sebastien - We started the tour by visiting an open market under the metro which is only open on Wednesdays and Sundays. After admiring the amazing array of fruits, vegetables etc we sampled some cheese, some amazing strawberries, as well as some charcuterie. We then crossed over the champs de mars and Sebastian explained the history of the Eiffel Tower. We then went to another market, which is a pedestrian Street where the market is open every day . We went to this beautiful candy store where e sampled a Baba rhum cake and finished the visit with a glass of rosé at a charming café near the market. It was a wonderful morning. Sebastien was super friendly and knowledgeable. I recommend it.
