See Paris through the eyes of a true Parisian. You’ll be glad you did!

If you choose Paris Guided as your tour company you will not be disappointed . Whether your interest leans toward the history of the city, art, coffee and cafes or unique shopping experiences, Pierre Yves - the owner/guide - will make sure you have an informed and wonderful experience . Walking around the neighborhoods in Paris is the best way to feel the city. As we walked with Pierre Yves he took us back in time with the history and architecture of the area. We were also well versed in where to get the best coffee, croissants, and macrons. Our group was eclectic - made up of a grandmother, great aunt and 15 year old boy but PY was able to satisfy everyone. I strongly recommend a walking tour or two of different areas of Paris - it gives you a great feel for the city. And I don’t think you will find anyone better than Pierre Yves to be your guide.

You will love Pierre Yves. He is very knowledgeable and personable. My teenage grandson was thrilled to practice his French and Pierre was so patient and encouraging. This was our second time in Paris using Pierre as our guide. We have toured the Marais, Montmartre, the Louvre, d’Orsay, and Normandy all with Pierre Yves. I felt his rates were more than fair for the time he spent with us. Highly Recommended .
