Learned lots with this tour! - Our guide Pat was friendly and knowledgeable. She handled questions as they arose. I definitely learned quite a bit on the tour even though I read a fair amount of history. There were just 5 of us in the group so we could all hear and interact. Highly recommend.

Strong women rise up! - This was my third or fourth time going on a Women of Paris tour while visiting. This time I had my 2 nieces with me and I wanted to share a little bit of history from a female perspective with them. Our guide, Pat, did not disappoint even in the rain!

Fantastic tour - Super amazing your with Emily! Truly another side of the history you'll hear elsewhere but about women you either don't know or have got mostly wrong. Super informative and made me want to learn so much more about these women. Highly recommend!

A must for anyone who wants to look at history through a more realistic lens! - My recent tour with Women of Paris Tours was insightful, inspiring, and incredibly well put together. Our guide was knowledgeable, passionate, and brought the stories of remarkable women to life in a way that was both engaging and empowering. I left with a deeper appreciation for Paris and the women who helped shape its history. Highly recommended!

Excéllent! Fascinant! - Excellent! We took the tour “Liberté Égalité Marché” tour with lovely Pat. She gave us coffee and snacks so I love her! Fascinating and fun. It’s great to look at history from a feminist angle.

No serious female tourists in Paris? C'mon! - My tout of Great Women in Parisian History was cancelled due to noone else signing up for it... No serious women tourists? C'mon women! I was offered the very fluffly alternative of a Women's Fashion Greats- Really?
