Perfect and amazing insider tour of Mintmartre

Audrey was an amazing tour guide and resident and artist for our private Monmartre tour. Perfect English and so knowledgeable and passionate about the 18th arrondisement. Even though we started later - got to see the quiet and local hillside town before the crowds arrived

The Best Tour Company.......EVER

This November we took our first trip ever to Paris. It was a quick 4-day trip and I was overwhelmed with all the city had to offer. I came across My Private Paris from the Les Frenchies facebook group and I'm so glad that I did! After initially reaching out I was connected with a planner. I explained the type of things we were looking to do and from there the planner did the rest. Within a few days I had a very exciting itinerary laid out for our trip. We worked with the planner to make a ...read more

Paris - Off the Beaten-Track

What a Wonderful walking tour of Paris! Ludivine aka Lulu, was nothing short of amazing! Her knowledge of the history of the off the beaten-track was so insightful and entertaining, it sealed a lovely trip to France for my wife and myself. The staff at My Private Paris was wonderful and I highly recommend their services. Kevin - Western Springs, IL

Amazing Paris Flâneur Experience

We started our Paris sojourn with Marie and it was excellent - like walking through the city with a fun and knowledgeable friend. Started at the Palais Garnier and ended at the Canals with some cafes, historical sites, graffiti artist ‘Invader’, and fascinating stories and pleasant conversation along the way. It was the perfect introduction to set us off on adventures for the rest of our stay. We’ve already recommended this tour to friends on their way to Paris. Merci boucoup, Marie!

Paris walking tour with Lucien was better than the Pyramids in Egypt

We traveled for two week from Egypt, France, and England. Our kids said their favorite part of the whole trip was the walking tour of Paris with Lucien, who tailored our experience and engaged with our two teenagers. Thanks for making this the highlight of the trip, which exceeded the Pyramids, Luxor, and King Tut’s tomb.

Bonjour Robert, that is one astonishing review ! All our team has celebrated Lucien after reading it ! You are very kind and we hope to see you all soon.
