Great tour guide! - This was a great tour. Izabele G. Was our guide and she was terrific. She was very knowledgeable about the history of Paris and each stop on the tour. Viator the website gets 2 stars because initially it billed this as a golf cart tour, however, our tour guide gets 5 stars for sure. Thank you Izabele for a memorable guided tour. We appreciate you.

Paris Latin Quarter highlights - Iza was a fun, knowledgeable guide for my first visit and tour of Paris. While many places were not open as it was a Monday, she still incorporated as many outdoor attractions as possible- gardens, streetscapes, etc, all the while sharing interesting perspectives on what we were seeing. I highly recommend Iza to anyone considering a Paris visit!

What a great afternoon! - I had an astonishingly good tour with Louis. I highly recommend him as a well informed, interesting and friendly guide. There’s no question that I got my money’s worth. I learned so much and had fun doing it!

Great time! - Great to chat and walk around with a local to the area! We hit the highlights of Paris from the view of a local. Heads up, there are no tickets involved. In the description it says they are, but the inclusions does not have tickets. Kinda confusing, but it was a great time!!

Walking and talking, Latin Quarter Paris - Easy to book, and meeting place was easy to find. Our guide Olivia walked up to us like a long lost friend up and a quick chat about us and what we wanted and we were off. Seeing historic places is one thing but having stories told about everything you can see and hearing the past was truly immersive. It was my first time using withlocals and I will use again. Highly recommend Olivia. So much local knowledge and I could no have asked for a better tour, or tour guide.

Wonderful morning walking tour in Paris - Loved everything about this tour. Really got to feel the essence of Paris. Louis was exceptionally knowledgeable and entertaining. It is worth having a knowledgeable tour guide. There are so many hidden stories and information which one is sure to miss without a tour guide.

Excellent local perspective on Paris! - Iza was excellent! My kids said this was their favorite tour we took in Paris, and my husband and I agreed. We really got to see a local’s view of the city, and she gave us some amazing local recommendations too, mostly things tourists wouldn’t know about. She was friendly, helpful and super knowledgeable. We loved the insight and experience just learning from her!!

A wonderful historic tour. - Very knowledgeable guide. A little too heavy on the history for us but it was enjoyable. He walked us all around the Latin Quarter.

Not a professional tour - Fair warning - this is not a tour with a trained guide. It’s gets three stars because I’m blaming myself partially since I probably should have read the ad and reviews better. Otherwise this was a 2 star experience and 1 star for value. We basically flushed our money away. The local “guide” guiding us really didn’t know too much history - maybe a few fun facts he googled. He didn’t give us any opinions or recommendations because he said everything in Paris is beautiful and delicious. Sometimes he’d lose his way taking us around. But about an hour into the tour, we were both ready to stop it. But didn’t want to be rude and endured the next two hours. I felt the guide was boring himself as well. Surely there are better walking tours.

Disappointed - We felt that the advertisement for this tour was misleading so we ended up being disappointed overall. We had really wanted to visit Saint Chapelle to see the stained glass windows so I booked this tour based on the interior photo that was shown and we didn't get to see it. Our guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant but there wasn't an itinerary like we had expected so he asked us several times where we would like to go which was awkward and puzzling. When I mentioned Saint Chapelle at the beginning of the tour, he said that he had walked by it on the way to meet us and there was a long line to get in so he wouldn't recommend going there. But that was the primary reason I booked it!
