Overview

How lucky you are, getting to explore Paris! We don't need to tell you just how magical this city is, but we can tell that with one of our hosts by your side, you'll see the authentic side of Paris in a personalized experience created specifically according to your schedule and bucket-list. There are of course some staples you’ll want to see, like the Eiffel Tower (hello IG) and Notre-Dame Cathedral, but you could also hop off the tourist trail to discover the lesser known spots- the ones with effortless Parisian chic where the locals love to hang.

Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can change your mind about what you want to do.

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Pass By: Place de la Republique, 75103 Paris France

Explore the trendy Le Marais area on the banks of the Seine, and nearby Place de la République, where three neighborhoods converge.

IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Pass By: Le Marais 3e Arrondissement, 75003 Paris France

Paris’s oldest market, luxurious mansions and sipping vin rouge at a pavement bistro. See the playground for Paris’s most trendy – the crooked, cobbled, historical lanes that are alive with bars, restaurants, vintage shops, and jewelry boutiques. But there’s more to Le Marais than gorgeous “I-woke-up-like-this” locals queuing for pita at L'As du Fallafel. With your host to lead the way, you’ll explore its thriving art scene at upmarket galleries, amble through Musée Picasso, and visit iconic sites like Rue de Montmorency, where Nicolas Flamel’s house – the oldest in Paris – stands. Stumble across the district’s hidden secrets, like the utterly picturesque Passage de l’Ancre, where a quaint boutique sells umbrellas and walking sticks, and relax with a coffee or a glass of wine at a classic bistro. Très chic.

Pass By: Marche Aligre, Place Aligre & Rue Aligre complete. Paris 12, 75012 Paris France

You might head a mile east to admire the pastel-painted houses of Rue Crémieux and indulge in exquisite regional cheeses at the district’s famous Marché d'Aligre market.

IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Pass By: 1 Coulee Verte Rene-Dumont Gare de Lyon - Bercy, 75012 Paris France

Walk through this green Haven and discover the greener side of Paris

IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Pass By: Jardin du Luxembourg, 75006 Paris, France

From relaxing on the elegant lawns of the Jardin du Luxembourg to exploring secret spots like the Coulée Verte, an elevated railway track where both wild and landscaped gardens have begun to flourish, your local insider will show you a Paris you’ll adore.

IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences


Pass By: Montmartre, 75018 Paris France

Discover Montmartre, perhaps the city’s most quintessentially Parisian district. As the city’s artistic neighborhood for centuries, perhaps you’ll discover the square where Picasso once painted, or visit Espace Dali, an eclectic collection of the artist’s quirky sculptures. Your host wouldn’t let you miss visiting the Sacré-Coeur, the stunning basilica which watches over the neighborhood, but they’ll also take you further north into Clignancourt, an overlooked area that’s home to delicious street eats and the Marché aux puces where you could while away hours browsing antique treasures. Take in the sweeping views of the whole city or sink into a chair in a classic Parisian cafe and indulge in the art of the flâneur - people watching.

IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Pass By: Porte de Clignancourt, 150 rue des Rosiers, 93400 Saint Ouen France

Your host could reveal areas often forgotten by tourists, like multicultural Porte de Clignancourt, an unassuming corner of Montmartre - the famous arts district - where you’ll find Paris’s most beloved flea market.

IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Pass By: Les Buttes Chaumont, 55600 Quincy-Landzécourt, France

You could you’ll amble through the Latin Quarter’s meandering streets towards the historic Panthéon – or maybe you’ll head to les Buttes Chaumont for a history lesson of a different kind.

IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences

Pass By: Batignolles, Batignolles, Paris, Ile-de-France

You could experience life everywhere from the iconic districts in the heart of the city to more off the beaten path quartiers like Batignolles, an enclave in the north-eastern reaches of the city which will leave you swooning with its dreamy parks and cafe culture.

IMPORTANT: As this is a private and personalized experience, the places you visit may differ from those listed and these will be chosen by your host based on your interests and preferences


Pass By: Oberkampf, 75011 Paris, France

From the Left Bank to the street-art plastered Oberkampf, you’ll discover the neighborhoods which are known for their effortlessly cool nocturnal personalities. All roads seem to lead to Rue Oberkampf - it’s impossible to resist being drawn into the hip bar scene here. There’s always charming Le Marais, or perhaps head west for the ultimate view of the Eiffel Tower lit up in all its glory.

I had an 8 hour layover in Paris and had the best time with my tour guide Sabrina! She was so knowledgeable and took me to the best spots in Paris! We even stopped at a few well known places so I could sample some of the French foods! I got to see everything I wanted and had enough time to get back to the airport! Great tour overall!

We just returned from an absolutely amazing 6 hour walking tour with Hristo. He met us at our hotel and took us on an incredible journey around Paris. We learned so much about Paris, the sites, the history and the people. Seeing Paris on foot with such a terrific guide was absolutely priceless. I highly recommend this tour and tour company. So grateful that we spent the day with Hristo!!

We did an 8 hour walking tour of Paris. Our guide was Pascal. He was absolutely wonderful. While I had been to Paris before, my wife has never been. Before our trip, we filled out a questionnaire about our interests (we are foodies and love to shop in small local boutiques. He customized our tour based on our interests and preferences, Whenever we visit a new city, we like to schedule an all day private tour with a local guide to give us an overview of the location. Pascal met us at our hotel right off the Champs Elysees. We walked the neighborhood near the Tour Eiffel then he took us on the Metro to visit a local farmer's market and shops in Marai. We had lunch together at Chez Paul, a recommendation from Pascal. The food was wonderful. He also showed us how to use the Metro, which we used during our 8-day stay in Paris. I would highly recommend the all day walking tour. We hope that you're fortunate enough to get Pascal as your guide.

Completely disappointed by the fact that our tour guide knew nothing about any of the sights, failed to provide much as far as important stops and was admittedly only on his second tour with no training. He was incredibly sweet but was not informed or trained. Our entire group was left feeling let down and frustrated. I blame the tour company for wasting our precious little time in Paris.

I’ve visited Paris many times but wanted to see some of the lesser known but interesting places Pascal was so knowledgeable and showed me some great hidden gems of Paris - especially the arcades I had a wonderful afternoon and learned so much - even the installation of tiles almost hidden in the streets by the artist known as Invader! Fascinating! Merci, Pascal!
