A wonderful tour! Highly recommended. - Jill was the perfect guide for our family of four to tour Le Marais. She engaged with our teenage children so well and brought us all on a journey of discovery. She was passionate and fun and very knowledgeable. We were so happy with our experience we booked Jill's Montmartre tour which was equally as fulfilling. We all learned so much and felt like we were very immersed in the atmosphere and joy of discovering the richness and surprises of Le Marais and Montmartre. We will treasure these memories of Paris with Jill. ❤️

Excellent tour and guide! - Our trip to Paris was not planned, very spontaneous we booked this tour on Viator and so glad we did; it was awesome and gave us an overview of the history of Le Marais. It was our favorite tour of all, and Jill is an exceptional guide and was very interesting. We really enjoyed her passion and knowledge about Le Marais.

In the heart of Le Marais, Jill guided us with grace; her charm made Paris more luminous. Sublime! - Amid the timeless beauty of Le Marais, Jill wove a narrative as enchanting as the district itself. Her knowledge brought history to life, revealing hidden gems and stories at every turn. My wife and I were captivated by her warmth and passion, which turned a simple walking tour into an unforgettable journey. From the quaint cobblestone streets to the vibrant culture, Jill made us feel as though Paris was welcoming us personally. Her charm was the true heart of this remarkable experience.

Le Marais - The Jewel in the Crown! - Well what can we say? This activity was most definitely one of the best city walks we have ever done. Jill was our guide - a lovely lady, very knowledgeable and passionate about the subject matter. Both my husband and myself were totally immersed in everything she said. We learnt a lot about the history of Le Marais, exploring various areas of interest in the greatest of detail. Jill couldn’t have done a better job. She gave me pointers with my French (which I am currently learning but have a long way to go) and provided audio headsets that most certainly helped in areas of high traffic. The tour itself latest just over 2 hours. Definitely worth every penny.
