Our guide, Arcand, was fantastic, providing just the right mix of history, stories and personal experiences to give us a clear view of Paris. The tour was just long enough to give us a sense of where everything is, and what we wanted to revisit on our own afterwards.
Eric our tour guide was fantastic. He was helpful, and informative and made the tour a wonderful experience.
