terrific historical walking tour! - We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Hugo this morning touring the Cite section of Paris. He was extremely knowledgeable - there wasn’t a question he couldn’t answer. He was friendly and engaging, even offering his own favorites for restaurants and other sites around the city. I highly recommend taking this tour, you won’t be disappointed!

Best Paris Tour - We love this tour! Hugo was an incredible tour guide and was super knowledgeable about the city history and other aspects of our tour. He was also extremely helpful with different suggestions about where to go for dinners and sent us additional information even after the tour. Can’t recommend him and the tour enough! Fantastic!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for François! - What a tour!! François was such a delight, and was filled with historical knowledge of Paris. Our tour group was incredibly intimate (one other person including myself and my husband) so we were able to ask every single question we could think of and get an in depth answer. It truly felt like we were walking the streets of Paris with an incredibly knowledgeable friend. François also took my special request to see a part of the city that I had wanted to explore! Worth every Euro!
