Pleasant afternoon - great Paris activity - Nice knowledgeable guide. Recommend for all - it is France, the opportunity for a cocktail or wine coupled with soft drinks for the underage. The right amount of walking

A bright spot in a dreary day! - Aniko was intrepid! In spite of the drizzle, she made the markets and shops come alive. She combined her knowledge of the wonderful history of an important Church with the fun of meeting vendors of outdoor markets and indoor gourmet chocolatiers. And we all felt like friends as we sipped hot drinks and listened to her wealth of knowledge of Paris. She was exceptionally attentive, and very professional. I saw her again today and felt like I was seeing an old friend. Bravo!

Lovely time - We had a very knowledgeable guide who took us to various spots for tasty treats. We tried sugared chestnuts and foie gras macaroons as well viewing some of the beautifully decorated storefronts in the 6th.

We thoroughly enjoyed exploring many areas and gourmet shops in Paris which we would never have discovered on our own. Being able to choose the food items and enjoying them with a hot beverage at the end of the tour is a lovely experience. Highly recommended!!</p>

It was bitterly cold and raining, but the tour was so great we did not feel it. The venues were well researched, the tastes fantastic and the amount we learned was astonishing. Great to learn something new about how different culture celebrate Christmas with different foods and customs.</p>

My one and only problem with this tour was the "tea room” at the end. She took us to the Hotel Littre, clearly on the other side of the tour route/neighborhood. We definitely went out of our way just to go to this "tea room" only to have very sub-par, awful service. I hope the company stops using this establishment. Terrible end to an otherwise brilliant tour!</p>

Not as advertised! - As Americans we want to see the holiday markets and christmas lights and try the mulled wine! The price was not worth a basic tour trying a few chocolates at non christmas spots and spending the majority of the time hearing the history of a church, which is nice but wrong tour. Was very disappointed!
