Fantastic and will definitely recommend. - We did the Tour of Ile-de-Cite for St Chappelle church , Conciergerie & a quick swing by Notre-Dame (as its still closed) Adam was just phenomenal and had a great understanding of the history and how the Church came to be ? His tour gave us a different opinion on the entire French revolution and we will take that knowledge with us long after the weekend. Thank you for sharing your knowledge & making it so enjoyable !

A “drop the mic” tour! ( that means its really good) - I’ve went on many a tour, but none compare to the tour Adam provided. He is the rock star of tour guides. It is a tour and history lesson wrapped into one. It’s interactive and he keeps you on your toes with some great questions. Very knowledgeable and just a great person to spend the day with. At the end of the tour I said to my wife “ that was the best tour I’ve ever been on. What an ending … drop the mic! “

Another great tour with Violette - This was my second tour with Violette and, as expected, it was informative, fun and generally a great way to spend an afternoon. Violette’s enthusiasm for her subject matter is infectious. Looking forward to doing another tour with her next time I’m in Paris.

An exceptional experience - After 25 years in the tourism industry I can honestly say it is not often you encounter such an exceptional guide as Adam. His thoughtful, well researched and insightful tour of the Frech Revolution brought this period of history to life. J. Bruce
