Fascinating look at Paris's Latin Quarter - We highly recommend this Latin Quarter tour with Tamari. She was knowledgeable and friendly, and really gave us a wonderful tour of this fascinating area of Paris. We learned about art, famous landmarks, Roman influence, education, architecture, churches, history, and culture. She had great stories to tell, and gave us suggestions of things to do in the area after the tour on our own, as well as places to eat. Tamari was engaging, and responsive to our questions. It was a thoroughly enjoyable tour!

Great tour, Great guide - Nika was a wonderful guide. He knew kind and very knowledgeable. We loved all of the historical landmarks, especially the Sorbonne, the Pantheon and the Jardin de Luxembourg. He was especially helpful in telling us that the line to get into Notre Dame moved very quickly, although it’s very long. It took us probably 20 minutes to get into the cathedral and it was astounding.

Beautiful discovery of the Latin Quarter - A discovery tour of the Latin Quarter at the top! Our guide Peter took us on a journey for more than 2 hours to the time of the Romans and the Middle Ages... He told this part of history and its monuments with interest by punctuating it with anecdotes.
