10/10 would highly recommend - Lucien was awesome to work with. Even before we arrived in Paris he was very responsive, gave us lots of recommendations for purchasing tickets ahead of time and great dinner spots. Once we met up with Lucien he was full of Paris history. We loved getting to hear stories and learn as much as we did and we never felt overwhelmed it was the perfect amount of detail. We also visited a basque restaurant for lunch with Lucien and the spot did not disappoint. As our day winded down he even taught us how to use the metro. If we come back we will 100% be booking with him again.

Lucien For The Win! - Lucien was an absolutely brilliant guide. We booked two tours with him (Latin Quarter and Les Halles originally). Not only was he gracious when I made an error on both days about where we would meet, he even agreed to change the tour to fit our needs at the last minute. Lucien had a playful wit, lovely countenance and he is very knowledgeable about the “off the beaten path” history of Paris. Our first tour was in the Latin Quarter, which gave us a depth of ancient Parisian charm. I can’t recommend him enough. Thank you Lucien!

Great private tour on the deep history of the Latin quarter - Our guide, Maxime, was engaging and knowledgeable about the Latin quarter and the history of Paris, the Sorbonne, the senate and Luxembourg gardens and many many other points of interest. Our family enjoyed his tour very much and we highly recommend him.

Private customized tour in Paris with Lucien - Absolutely wonderful experience. Lucien was able to include several of the sites and museums that we were hoping to visit. He also gave us instructions on which ones were best to do on our own so that we were able to optimize our time together. Recommended an excellent lunch spot as well. My husband could’ve spent the entire week walking thru Invalides with Lucien! Overall, couldn’t have had a better day and so grateful that we found Lucien.

A great, unique experience - I had a great conversation with Gelsomina while she led me around the neighborhood, seeing a bunch of interesting architecture and getting a history lesson along the way. It was a really welcoming experience and I highly recommend it.

Well worth the time spent - We had a bit of trouble finding the guide, ad the instructions said to meet at gate 1 and all gates were numbered. Once we found our guide, it was great.

A wonderfully fun, informative and not-to-be missed tour of the Latin Quarter! - What a fascinating and informative tour of Paris's Latin Quarter! My wife and I had been to Paris on several occasions and thought we had seen and learned much about the city. But our incredible guide Wan opened our eyes and minds to many historically and culturally important (and often very charming and touching) sites and information that I'll bet most tourists would miss or not understand. What made this such a wonderful tour was the very friendly and conversational way that Wan shared her encyclopedic knowledge of Paris's history and culture. We have never had a tour guide who had such a perfect balance of personality, professionalism and knowledge! We feel so very lucky to have taken this tour and to have had Wan as our guide. It was an experience not to be missed!

Our guide was very... - Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area and showed us many off-the-beaten track locations. However, we never got the promised coffee and onion bread.
