Something for everyone! - This could take a full day to explore it all. A great time and our tour guide Flo was excellent. We loved all the little stores and all the vintage and antiques for sale.

Excellent Introduction to Les Puces - We had so much fun with Helen at Les Puces! I booked this as a group tour, as a gift for my Mom. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived and discovered that we were the only participants! Helen was warm and friendly, with a wealth of knowledge about the flea market and Paris history and culture. She was attentive to what we were looking for, and brought us to shops that aligned with our interests. We also gained an overall understanding of the market’s layout through the general tour. She answered our questions (can I touch items in the stalls? Is negotiating an option?), while adding colorful commentary about the history of the markets. Helen even pointed us in the direction of an excellent restaurant for lunch after the tour. I would definitely recommend this tour to others! The experience gave me the confidence and knowledge to visit the markets on my own the next time I’m in Paris!

Enjoyable time at the Marche aux Puces - The Marche aux Puces can be overwhelming for the first time shopper. Tobias did a great job in explaining the market and made the experience much more enjoyable.

Fun and time saving - This is a very large flea market encompassing multiple city blocks with everything from $5 sneakers to priceless antiques. The guide orients you and finds the sellers that cater to your interests while providing lovely commentary. They also show you a diverse range of vendors so you can focus in.

Could pass on this tour. - The flea market is more like a town of shops. Some are in a shopping arcade, some are outside, some are partially under a roof and some are like outdoor garage sales. Quality varied from antiques to junk. We enjoyed the old, eclectic areas. I don’t know that we needed a tour for this. We did hear some interesting history, but we would have spent our time more efficiently if we’d just started shopping when we got there as opposed to waiting until we finished the tour.

Disappointing - Guide was friendly and up beat. But we did little resembling the promise of the sales pitch. There was scant ‘anything’ not doable without guiding. Sorry to be disappointed but we were. Def not worth the $110 paid for the two of us. We’d advise going unguided first

Skimming a huge, old flea market. - Very nice guide, but the tour was too limited and quick. Just a taste of this enormous flea market., which is time worn.
