A unique Parisian experience

F7656WMserenas, Oct 2022

The tour was really interesting and informative; Quentin was really nice and it was easy to communicate with him. I already knew Paris pretty well but Quentin guided us to so many hidden places and told us a lot of fascinating anecdotes that i came away with an even richer vision of this beautiful city. Totally reccomended!!!

Thank you Quentin :)

Great way to discover the Latin Quarter

icbmc, Feb 2020

My husband and I visited Paris last autumn. We booked with My Paris Insider because a friend recommended it to us. The guide, Quentin, was nice and knew the area perfectly. He could answer all our questions and actually made the visit really interesting. He also showed real flexibility when we made a specific request regarding where we would like to end the visit.
