A great walk with a great guide - I had an excellent walk. It all ended too soon. Pat was informative and entertaining. My understanding of the literary women of Paris was expanded and I got some great photos. I love the "used to live here" plaques and saw a lot of them on this walk. The sweets, too, were great. Take this tour and you will be in good hands.
