A Long Walk and a Lot of Sights to See in Paris - Our guide, Mehrdad, was very friendly and showed us a lot of things. He was able to help us skip the line to go up in the Eiffel Tower, and also got us reservations to go out on the glass deck at the top of the Galeries Lafayette. If you like having pictures of yourself in front of every sight and attraction, he's ready to take them. He's not a super expert on the city sights, but he will Google anything you want to know. It's a comprehensive walking tour, but be aware that you will put in 15-20,000 steps each day, so it's not for those who don't like to walk.

Incredible 2 Day Tour with Mehrdad - Our guide was Mehrdad, and he was phenomenal. He was friendly, welcoming, and an incredible host. He reached out the day before our tour to confirm the meeting spot and answer any questions we had. Mehrdad also helped us become confident managing public transportation, which we were a bit intimidated by when we first arrived in Paris. Mehrdad allowed us to set the pace and choose what we wanted to do, which was great since we had done a couple of tours the days prior and had seen several of the locations on the example itinerary. When we weren’t sure or couldn’t decide, Mehrdad helped guide us to a decision and kept the day moving forward. Mehrdad’s knowledge of the city was incredible. In addition to taking us to see the Paris “hot spots” and sites we requested, he got to know our interests and took us to multiple other experiences that he thought (correctly) we would enjoy such 59 Rivoli, a multi-story art gallery/studio housed in a former squat. Mehrdad also surprised us by booking us reservations for the glass floor walkway to view the gorgeous dome and take pictures at Galeries LaFayette before taking us to the rooftop for an incredible view of the city. These are just two examples of the many ways that Mehrdad made the two day tour special for us. I cannot express how much we enjoyed this two day tour because of our guide. I recommend this experience over any of the other (many) tours we did in Paris. It was well worth the cost, and I’d even go so far as to say it is worth paying even more if you have Mehrdad as your guide! (Family of 4 with 2 teens ages 17 & 14)

Best trip to Paris yet - Anastasia was prompt, courteous, friendly, knowledgeable, and knows the streets of Paris. She managed our tour time so to not disappoint. It was obvious she is passionate about this job. Her demeanor was as you would enjoy a coffee with her at any of the many cafes. I thoroughly enjoyed this 2 day tour.

What better way to see... - What better way to see Paris than with your own private tour guide? And the guide to get is, Jean. Very professional, humorous, and attentive to the client's request. I had tours scheduled right after my tour with Jean and he made sure I would make it in time for the event. Not many tour guides do that. Most will just end the tour and wish you get luck in catching the next one.

One day should be good - Our first day of touring was AMAZING with Clare our tour guide, but we did not see much the 2nd day and the new tour guide was 1 hour and 15 minutes late and really focused on churches and the neighborhood that she wanted to take us to. Highly recommend you map out your locations beforehand and ask for Clare for the 2 days.

Read between the lines! Walking tour only! - Did not realize it was a total walking tour for 2 days for $500.00 plus. It should have said on the "not included portion" that there was no included transportation. It would have been worth the money if it included a driver for some parts but $500.00 was steep to walk around a big city. Our tour guide was Anastasia and she was great and told us the tour was supposed to state in it several times that it was a walking tour only (but it did not). Other than that it was a good tour and we walked over 25,000 steps both days and got to see most of what we wanted to. We had to take a metro to some further out stops. Anastasia gets a 5. The tour itself a 3 since it is not worth the money.
