Outing in Montmartre - Allison showed us all the nuances in Montmartre and Sacre-Coeur area. Little Gems you would never find on your own. For an extra fee she is also available to assist with questions, reservations etc while in Paris.

Spectacular Tour - This was our first trip to Paris and had heard about Allison through our travel agent. She was so incredible on the first day we hired her for a second day! The ability to walk the city with Allison and have her tell us about the history was incredible. She doesn't miss anything, from the most popular sights to the smaller less known, she is a wealth of knowledge. She also shared so many tips and tricks during the first two days that it set us up for success on the future days when we ventured out on our own. If I go back to Paris no doubt Allison and Tour to Bridges will be on the itinerary!

In love with Paris all over again - Alison made sure we had a grand time with her soul of the city tour. My sister and I celebrated our birthdays last month in Paris. This tour made us both fall in love with Paris all over again. Our tour master knowledge and passion for the city of lights permeated our unique experience walking streets and sightseeing places we didn’t even know existed before. We were introduced to the place people go to fall in love with through the eyes and heart of an expert lover who wants the works to know WHY she is SO taken by Paris, obviously the “object of her affection” We are going back to France next April and will for sure go discover more about our beloved Paris with Alison.

A great way to see the city! - Such an interesting tour. Allison has a way to make it fun and educational. When she says ‘good walking shoes are a must’, she is not kidding. And bring a bottle of water. The 2 hours seemed to be over too soon. Seeing the Sacré-Cœur was spectacular with a view to match! The history, the artists, the eye popping architecture. We stopped at the top of the only vineyard in Paris to enjoy the panoramic view of the City. We were even able to purchase a small Eiffel Tower painting in the artist village. As we were coming to the end of our tour, we stocked up on gifts and goodies to bring home.

Surprising Tour - Having visited Paris on a number of occasions, I thought I'd seen all there was to see in Montmartre, but Allison showed me sights and told me stories that I'd never heard before. I spent a very enjoyable and informative couple of hours in her company.
