A wonderful afternoon with history and beauty combined
alice_f, Dec 2024
Yesterday was a perfect afternoon for Thai tour and Pat our knowledgeable and fun tour guide added to the weather and ambiance of the afternoon. We enjoyed Luxembourg Gardens and all her historical facts and how she presented the stories to us. She was a total pleasure and ending with Madam Curie in the Latin quarter. I loved this tour as unknown history to us. She was a considerate warm storyteller and a pleasure to have experienced this history from her. Thank you also for being a kind person to my sister who had difficulty walking. Best wishes continuing this tour.

Pat was a very knowledgeable guide and we had a very great time with her discovering a bit of the history of Paris through her famous -but sometimes underestimated - women! Thank you for a very good time!

Women of Paris Tour

A very enjoyable way to spend a morning learning about some of the great women in the history of Paris. Pat was our excellent guide on a lovely relaxed and well paced browse around the 6th arrondissement and Latin Quarter. She was a wealth of knowledge and shared insights into the many interesting and influential women who helped to shape Paris and the world. I would highly recommend booking on this tour as it is fascinating to hear about the rich cultural influence of some very important women.

Pat was very knowledgeable about Women’s history. It poured down rain and Pat was very flexible. Would have liked more 20th century Women’s history
