Beautifully tailored personalised tour for a 16yo solo teenage traveller - Wow, wow and WOW. For a nervous parent organising a 2 day private experience last minute for my 16yo son from Australia, I could not be happier. Dominique was reassuring throughout, planned an age appropriate itinerary that fitted his want-to -sees, made sure to include some authentic local experiences and even made herself available to help with things I needed to know regarding outside of tour organising. I could not recommend this group and the staff any more highly. 10/10!

Family Friendly - Our tour was absolutely FABULOUS! Nathalie was fantastic. The clue game kept my son (and all the rest of us) engaged and excited to explore the Montmartre area. She gave us such great information and was so kind. It was an absolutely wonderful experience!

Perfect Way to Explore Paris as a Family - Thank you for making our first family trip to Paris so special! Our tour guide was wonderful and the kids loved these once in a lifetime experiences!!! We loved all of the special touches you were able to add which made each stop perfect!
The communication leading up to the tour date was perfect...our tour followed restrictions being lifted following COVID-19. They made the itinerary easy to follow. This tour was fantastic for our family of 5.
We highly recommend this trip along with others that Meet the Locals offers. Top notch!

Fantastic time in Paris - We really enjoyed our tours with Meet the Locals in Paris and our guides, Sebastian and Charlotte, were fantastic. Excellent english and they really tried to engage with our two boys aged 9 and 12. We did several customised tours which were all great but of the activities, the kids enjoyed the chocolate walking tour and Louvre treasure hunt the best. Sebastian was very knowledgeable about the Louvre and worked hard at telling the kids about art pieces they would be interested in. Charlotte was awesome on the chocolate tour. Definitely a great experience.

Amazing private tour of Paris! - We travel to Paris with our five-year-old daughter and booked several customized tours with Meet the Locals. Dominique and her team were amazing and took care of everything so that we could enjoy Paris stress free!
Sebastian was our tour guide and we met him at Notre Dame cathedral. This was a month before it caught on fire. We were able to tour inside as well as catch part of a Sunday service. It was special.
We then went to the Louvre and Sebastian was phenomenal at making sure our daughter had a front-row view to the Mona Lisa. We bought her a kid-friendly camera for her birthday and she wanted to take a picture of the Mona Lisa. There were so many people there that we weren’t sure was going to be able to happen. Sebastian was able to maneuver her to the very front so that she could get a picture. She still talks about it months later!
We then went to the Eiffel tower and had lunch. The views and the food were amazing! I have several food allergies and Dominique and her team made sure the Eiffel tower could accommodate them well in advance.
We ended the day with a river boat tour of the Seine. It was a nice relaxing way to end the day. We are so grateful to Dominique and her team for an amazing and special day. This tour was a great way to see Paris as a family! Spend the money, it’s worth every penny!

Worth every penny! - We had such a lovely time with amazing Edith in Paris. She was pure joy! Paris was magical as always, we will go many more times to visit.
We loved every moment of our adventure. It was a great idea to go with a car option because it was unbearably hot and we were all melting while being outside so having a car to rest between sites was an excellent idea. Edith was incredibly accommodating to one of our daughter with a hearing disability. Booking via "Meet the Locals in France" was a true pleasure, Dominique worked with us to accommodate our special needs daughter with absolute professionalism and kindness. Best experience ever! I highly recommend this site to book your unforgettable experience in seeing Paris in a day or 2.

Best vacation ever - Best vacation ever. We were a family of five.
Mom, Dad, two kids of 10 & 7, and grandma (72).
We booked several activities with meet the locals.
Day one - tuk tuk (perfect after the jet lag coming from America)
Day two - Versailles and Seina Cruise at night.
Day three - Louvre and Paris Private Day
We also added the bakery class (strongly recommended)
Day four - EuroDisney
Long story short, our tour guides were fantastic. Everybody enjoyed the tours, mainly the kids with the scavenger hunts.
I could see the human side if the company, Dominique the CEO checked with us several times to meet our expectations.
The tour guides were so nice with us.
Meet the locals also booked our private transportation from the Airport - hotel, hotel- Disney, and hotel - airport.
I strongly recommend them, if I could give them a AAA+++ on trip advisor, I sure will do that.
For my next time in France, I’ll use them again.
Our experience was more than perfect.

Private day tour of Paris, The Louvre, Eiffel Tour and chocolate making cafe! - We had a wonderful day trip from Marne Le Vallee to have a glimpse at Paris. Our driver, Wadson, picked us up on time and drove us into Paris where we met our tour guide, Gwenaelle. We had a wonderful day, seeing some of the highlights of Paris. Both Gwenaelle and Wadson were marvellous hosts. They made sure everything ran smoothly and that our kids - aged 6 to 13 - had a great day. We had a whirlwind tour of the Louvre, taking in the Mona Lisa, amazing ancient sculpture, crown jewels and a selection of Delacroix paintings. Next, La Tour Eiffel and a nice lunch and look around at the panorama of Paris. More wandering around the streets of Paris with a stop for hot chocolate and to make some chocolate bars followed by dinner. The tour was very well organized, it was very suitable for our group and gave us a wonderful introduction to Paris. Gwenaelle and Wadson could not have been nicer or have done a better job of making sure we had a great day. Our experience from booking the tour to everything about our day was first class and I would highly recommend Meet the Locals!

Amazing experience on 2 different tours - My husband and I along with our 11 year old daughter did 2 tours through Meet the Locals. The first one was the First time in Paris Full Day Family Tour and the second one was the Christmas Gourmet Food Tour. Our guide both days was Caroline. We had an amazing experience. Caroline was very nice, patient, spoke English so well, and was so knowledgeable about Paris and its history. The tours were so well organized before and during the actual event. We had the opportunity to see and learn so much about Paris through these tours especially given that our visit was pretty short. We highly recommend the company and Caroline as a great guide!
