Our tour of Notre Dame and Paris city center - Our guide Marie was excellent. She gave us great historical information about the various sites we saw and had some interesting anecdotes to keep us amused as well. The length of time was perfect. The small group was excellent as well - we could hear everything and Maria was able to connect with everyone on the tour.

Walking Tour of Paris with guide Eden Mele - My wife and I just returned from a European vacation. In the two weeks we were there, we visited 3 countries, and took part in countless tours. Far and away the best excursion we had was the walking tour of Paris with our guide Eden Mele. Her in depth knowledge of the city and its history was fascinating. Eden’s approach to the tour was not only informative but customized and personal, right down to offering to take our pictures in front of historic landmarks. Eden is best in class, thanks for an amazing experience.
