My sister and I loved our Versailles experience with Thibaud from start to finish. He was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He knew all of the tricks to keep us away from the crowds and out of long lines. He also gave us tips at the end about how to further enjoy the site along with some restaurant recommendations. We'd highly recommend using Thibaud as your guide!

We toured 'The Louvre with the Mona Lisa' as our guide, Caroline, expertly covered some intriguing historical facts about the Louvre itself as well as the artwork. We saw the pyramid entrance but also walked through the actual moat surrounding the original palace. Caroline described the history of the building, taking us back through time as different sections were built and why. She contextualized each aspect. We continued our journey from the most early artworks to iconic pieces like the Venus de Milo, Da Vinci paintings, Egyptian Antiquities and, of course, the Mona Lisa. Caroline expertly alighted on each aspect with a thorough description of all. Even as there is so much to see, she was able to condense our visit to give a a great overview during our tour. Thank you! Bruce and Robin

We toured Notre-Dame and Gothic Paris with Pauline. She very effectively conveyed the history as well as the feeling and emotion of Paris. She was very knowledgeable, personable, and we got an in-depth understanding of Gothic Paris as well as the character of the population through the years. Notre-Dame became more than an amazing church. We learned about its' reclamation after the fire, incredible acts of courage and devotion, and its' symbolism and importance to the people of Paris. Pauline focused on the Gothic but she also expertly interwove the theological and symbolic architectural developments and the transitions from the Middle Ages, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Modern styles. These changes reflected the changes in the population as well, giving us a clear picture of Paris as a whole. Pauline's colorful descriptions made you feel part of the city, giving us an understanding of the Gothic Period and the people living in it. Wonderful and enlightening tour. Thank you! Bruce and Robin
