Amazing tour guide/exceptional tour - We had an amazing time with our tour guide, Rawda. She is friendly, fun and knowledgeable. She explained every detail of the Eiffel Tower, talked about the art work in the louvre museum, including the famous Monalisa, Michael Angelo, and others. While walking, she tallied about the different neighborhoods, the Parisian life, movies connected to different places and told us about the best place to buy macaroons. The store is in the Eiffel Tower. The recipe is from a well known French pastry chef. I also learned that macaroons are supposed to be kept in the fridge 😅 (not in the USA). During our trip, there were some unexpected changes due to subway train cancellations. Rawda was able to quickly take alternative routes and shortcuts to get to the Louvre Museum without interruption of our tour. You should know that at the Louvre, you do not have to make the long line. There is a special entrance for guided tours. Overall, I would highly recommended the tour. If I have to do any other tour with The Tour Guy, I would love to have Rawda as my tour guide. Rawda also gave us a list of places to visit, restaurant recommendations for crepes, authentic French cuisine, bakeries, best hot chocolate and others. Rawda is simply, the best 🙌🏼🇩🇴. Lilly -

Great tour! - Great tour of many of the places we wanted to visit. Julie our guide was a standout - she was knowledgeable, humorous, and managed the group of 13 well (thoughtful and considerate of all). She gets a 10 out of 10 as a guide. We would recommend the tour, 8-10 miles of walking and stairs should be considered before booking.

Fabian are tour guide made this tour - The tour of Paris with Fabian - oh my goodness was fabulous. She was the perfect guide for us. What a positive outlook with a great personality. We encountered some hiccups like free entry into the Louvre, which meant it was like Walt Disney World at spring break during a parade and you want an ice cream cone or she had the occasional tour guest who wandered off. Fabian didn’t skip a beat. Smiling the whole way she moved on to keep us on schedule. All our tours were scheduled via via tour, which is part of TripAdvisor. They did not charge until a few days before the tour by the way. When the tour ended, she personally helped us buy and get on the train back to our hotel. What a gift of a guide. The Eiffel Tower created for the world fair yet now is the icon in Paris and is amazing. Right now it’s color is a yellow brown. Yet when they erected it, it was red! They were still cleaning up from the Olympics yet that did not obstruck the view from the second floor. You could see forever, every buildings architecture is exquisite and detailed, and when you viewed the city from the Eiffel Tower, it was as if you jump back in time. We were blessed with the French military parade, dressed in full traditional uniforms on horseback as we made our way to the Louvre BONUS. Prior to our visit to Paris, I did not know the Louvre was originally a castle that was torn down and a palace was built on top, There’s still a mote underneath the palace to be seen. The Mona Lisa remains the most popular piece of art. She truly stands out from the 35,000 pieces. Fabian got us up close and personal to her. I forgot at one point the Mona Lisa was stolen yet returned thank goodness for us to enjoy. Rooms upon rooms of art with a story behind each. You could spend days here. Notre Dame, wow, what a site. They have rebuilt this church from the fire with the same style equipment, tools, and skill set that created it first! No modern tools were used they said. It will reopen to the public in December this year. We were not permitted to go in yet. I encourage you to read up on the building of the roof. It is a miraculous creation of skillful genius back then and now. Off to Montmartre, high on top of the hill that looks onto Paris. What a view and what a magical place. It looks like a French countryside village. We must come back to enjoy the splendor of this hilltop town, try the food, maybe shop too. Fabian made our stop in Paris, memorable, we left educated and appreciative for the love in the heart of our beautiful tour guide Fabian. Merci!

Excellent tour - Rawda was our Tour guide and she was fantastic. She really made the most of our time and was sure to point out all the key sights we wanted to see. We spend a sufficient amount of time at each part of the tour. Did a great job keeping the group together and managing the Metro. Really had a great time and highly recommend.
