Nice relaxing enjoyable tour! Loved it! - Loved our walk around the Marais with Emily in Paris! Very nice guide, lots of history and sights to see that we would never have found otherwise. Great to take an in depth look at a neighborhood instead of running around all over the city. Had a private tour and went at our own pace. Very enjoyable.

Le Marais and then some - Our tour was guided by Andrea He isn't just a tour guide, he is passionate about Paris architecture and street art. He thoughtfully explained the history of the community's art, pointing out lessor seen works of art. He led us through quiet "private" gardens. Our tour was 2.5 hours at Andrea's request. He wanted to make sure we saw everything! Overall great tour.

Great way to see the old Paris & all its beauty - My daughter (teen) and I absolutely loved our walking tour with Clara!! What a fun way to see and enjoy a part of the city that is somehow often overlooked on your typical Parisian itinerary. This neighborhood is magically beautiful and full of history both hidden and still standing. Clara told us about kings, crusaders, builders, and merchant mayors and it never felt like a lesson but we learned SO MUCH. Thank you for a great walk and we will recommend all our friends!!

Marais with Vincent - We loved our guides, Vincent and Shakira. They were so friendly and knowledgeable. Interesting history in this district and so much to see. We loved the Red Market, the vegan bakery (yummy cookies) and great shopping. Thank you Vincent!
