Fun Facts, beautiful and historic - Such a fun tour! The very charming Elizabeth came out even though it was a nasty, rainy day. It was a small group. Elizabeth was very engaging and knowledgeable, also enthusiastic about Napoleon and Paris. She spoke clearly and loud enough for us to hear her. She shared mini interesting details. Fortunately the weather cleared and was nice for the last hour. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in Napoleon!

- Our guide Elizabeth was terrific. We started our tour in the rain and she kept us as dry as possible and provided good detail. The only downside was the itinerary indicates passing by the Arc de Triomphe and we were probably 2 km away and we expected to be close enough to see and take pictures. I would recommend removing it from the itinerary or bore clear how far away you will be. Overall a very good tour.

I learned so much AND had fun! - We had an awesome tour with Elizabeth! She was so knowledgeable and an absolute delight. I’m an introvert but she somehow had me chatting about everything from Napoleon (of course) to politics, to broadway musicals and Taylor Swift! If I could have her guide me on every tour from now on, I would.
