Fabulous 2 hour walking tour ! - Sara was so friendly and spoke excellent English, we had lots of laughs on the way and learned so much about all the places on our walk, our 2 children aged 7 & 11 really enjoyed it too and she engaged them with all the history, and also had fun with them spotting the mosaic video game graffiti on the way. She even made a little detour to take us to see Gabriel’s cafe, Emily’s front door and the bakery from Emily in Paris. We would highly recommend this tour - she also recommend a lovely cream puff shop on route which we had time to try - delicious ! Final destination is Luxembourg gardens which has a wonderful play area (small fee) and a pond on which you can hire a wooden boat to push around. Wonderful day!

Sarah helps create magic even for non Latin speakers! - The Latin Quarter offers many hidden gems. Sarah, our tour guide, connects first with all in the diverse group & then facilitates each (even if you are not an “EMILY in Paris” faithful!) connecting with the Latin Quarter. She is animated, knowledgeable, an excellent communicator, passionate (and I believe a romantic, for sure) about classical music, history of all that she introduces AND okay with acknowledging that she might not have an answer at the moment (not prone to making things up just because)! She deserves many more than five stars!! Thank you sarah.

Latin Quarter tour with Maria - Maria was outstanding tour guide and shared little known secrets and told us about historic spots going back to Roman times. She shared her opinions and experiences freely and was really smart with an interesting life story of her own.
