Paris' Le Marais: Exclusive Private Charm & History Walk

Mila was a knowledgeable, friendly, and well-spoken tour guide. She was sensitive to our needs and wants and we would recommend her.

We enjoyed the historical context of our tour including the guide identifying landmarks we would not have otherwise noticed. An improvement would have been for the guide to have taken a minute at the beginning to orient us with a map as to what we were going to see. Thx

We had a great time walking through Le Marais with Boris. His creative approach to tourism, insightful information, and charisma are something quite special. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a unique experience of Paris.

Boris did a wonderful job showing us the beautiful Marais area. We toured old and new areas, learning about the history of the architecture, who worked and lived in the area hundreds of years ago as well as the gentrification of the area. My daughters and I enjoyed every minute of the tour and the interesting conversation with Boris who was very comfortable to chat with. Boris is very well educated on Paris, art and architecture - a perfect guide for this trip! We'll definitely recommend him to friends looking for any tours in Paris.

My daughter and I absolutely loved our private walking tour with Caroline! We had just arrived to Paris that morning and we could not have asked for a better introduction to Le Marais. I had indicated on the form that we were interested in learning about the area through an art history lens and that we were also curious to learn how the area developed it's LGBT community. Caroline thoughtfully instructed us on the essential monuments and architecture of the area and gave us an appreciation for Le Marais that we spent the next several days talking about and revisiting. We spent time going back to many of the streets she introduced to us to visit restaurants and shops. She also carefully traced the development and fascinating history of LGBT rights throughout Paris's history- cumulating with the controversial opening of Centre Pompidu and the area's first "Open" gay bar! We were so engaged in her story of the efforts and rationale of the church and government to intitally suppress, then begin to progressively recognize, and finally celebrate the LGBT community. Caroline brought up many interesting points that we continue to discuss. We were welcomed to Paris through this tour and we are thrilled to have met Caroline as an expert and to have made her a friend. The research and care she put into making the tour unique and specific to our interests was humbling and impressive. pam bigatel artist and educator 206-384-0026

Our guide to a walking tour of the Marais was everything one could ask: a serious and impassioned student of the subject, the ability to communicate her knowledge in an engaging manner, inquisitiveness outside of her comfort zone, and a personable, flexible and gracious manner. No once over lightly here: bring your own A game. You cannot go wrong with Isadora in the Marais.

<p>Our 2-hour walking tour with Boris was outstanding. He was incredibly knowledgeable and accomodated our requests to see certain points of interests. We would recommend this tour without reservation.</p>

<p>Stephanie was a fabulous tour guide. We had the best time where she would tell us the stories behind the sites we were seeing. She also was able to relate things to her own life. We thoroughly enjoyed her and wished that she would have been our tour guide for the entire time we were in Paris.</p>

<p>Stephanie was a well-informed and enthusiastic guide during the tour. She had carefully prepared an interesting walk with an overview of the area and numerous anecdotes relating to history and art.</p>
