Traveller reviews
Juliet was a wonderful guide! Very knowledgeable and personable. We enjoyed our tour, and the great lunch recommendation.
Great tour of The Latin Quarter by Lou. She really knew her stuff and was much better experience in a small group at a pace that worked well. Note: double check the meeting point as the link on Viator was wrong and caused some confusion.
Lou was great. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and very accommodating to our group. I would definitely recommend this tour outside the typical tourist areas.
Valentine was excellent! He shared so much history in a relaxed manner. We really enjoyed our visit, he didn’t rush us and pointed out local sights as well as well known ones.
Lou, our guide, was warm and friendly - and so knowledgeable. She delighted us with history, architecture, and stories.
Lou was terrific - very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend her and the Latin Quarter tour!!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour through the Latin Quarter with our tour guide Clara! It was a wonderful surprise to discover the important Roman arena tucked away in a lovely square. We got to know the different areas/schools of the Sorbonne, the interesting Rue Mouffetard, and Clara was nice enough to show us some spots where Midnight in Paris and Emily in Paris were filmed. Ending the tour in the Jardin du Luxembourg was a special treat! The tour lasted just the right amount of time, not too short and not too long. Highly recommend.
We had a great trip through the Latin Quarter. Our guide Lou was fantastic! She was very knowledgeable and knew the area well given she went to University there.
