I Lost a lot of money and Lost a lot of priceless time in Paris, No benefits at all!!!. Guide from Columbia was lost in Paris. We spend an hour in line to Sacré Coer so we said” thank you” and we made new plan ourselves. Not even visiting the basilique…. Disaster!!!

We had a wonderful tour with Jonathan. He was quite knowledgeable about both the area and history. Jonathan had wonderful stories and by the end of the tour we felt that we had a very good feel for Montmartre, its beauty and charm as well as its historical significance. I would recommend this tour, and Jonathan was great.

Anna was amazing! We have traveled to Paris many times and never experienced Montmartre! My daughter has a degree in Art History and was especially excited to see where Picasso and Van Gogh lived and worked . Anna’s knowledge of the history of the area was extensive and interesting. The Basillica of the Sacred Heart was a vantage point of greater Paris that we had never seen before and was just stunning! We had lunch at Anna’s recommendation and were surrounded by artists at work while we enjoyed an incredible meal! This tour is a must do for people who want a day seeing a unique area of Paris!!
