Nice Experience - So let's just say this tour was my wife's idea. We spent a week in Paris and we each chose things we wanted to do. This one was hers. I tagged along, and actually enjoyed it. Ivo was a great guide. He texted me the day of the tour to make sure we knew where to meet him. We met and walked with him for a couple of hours through the fashion district with him sharing the history of haute couture. He was very interesting and personable. My wife loved it and I enjoyed watching her. If fashion is your thing. this is a great tour.

Can't imagine a better guide for this tour! - Ivo was right on time and had connected with us by SMS the day before. He was amazingly well educated not only on the history of fashion, but on the psychology and business angles as well. We totally enjoyed what he had to share and the places he showed us and even our two exhausted teenagers appreciated his tour. Two thumbs up!

Fantastic Tour. Phenomenal Tour Guide. - Our whole family (son 11, daughter 13) loved this tour. Ivo has a ton of knowledge, tailors the trip and storytelling based on your interests, and he has such a positive energy! This is not just a tour for people that are into fashion. It is for just about anybody.

Don’t waste resources - This was presented that we would learn the background on fashion and shown how to shop vintage. We did none of that. Tremendous waste of time and money. We walked around a few windows of haute couture and he muttered a few things.
