Summary: This was a delightful tour! Guillaume is very knowledgeable about contemporary Paris as well as the rich history of the city, and he relates it very well, we were enthralled for the full two hours of the tour. We saw parts of the city we wouldn’t have seen otherwise and learned background and history we wouldn’t have learned. I hope that the next time we visit Paris, Guillaume is still doing tours as we would love to engage him again!
