France Private and Small Group Walking Tours
Birthplace of haute cuisine and high fashion
France is known for its cultural sophistication and cultivation of the intellect. Its influence on art, music, literature, science, politics, fashion, food, and philosophy—just to name a few fields—is unparalleled.
"This tour was the high point of my three weeks traveling in Europe and Iceland. I had read "A Tale of Two Cities" and the tour brought to life the history of the French Revolution. We walked the path of the revolutionary activities and were treated to a deep and insightful presentation of the context and the activities that took place in the locations we visited. Irene was outstanding in her knowledge and communication of the history. We learned so much about the history and the feelings of the French people who realized this dramatic transformation of world events. Thank you." – E. Michael

Laurent provided an amazing amount of information on not just the common tour items like Notre Dame but every aspect of neighborhoods, churches, and timelines. One of the most impressive tours we’ve ever had. Highly recommend Laurent.

The tour was exceptional, and Elise was perfect.
We booked the Louvre tour, but the lines that day were a mess, and we had to pivot. Elise didn’t miss a beat. She brought Louvre-level expertise to an on-the-fly plan that kept our whole family engaged (ages 10 to 21) and somehow made Plan B feel like the plan we should’ve picked all along.
What sets her apart is range and judgment. She can pull back to give a broader historical context, then zoom in to answer a specific question or highlight a detail you might never notice on your own. She has a great feel for the group, leaning into what sparks interest and keeping things moving so everyone stays engaged.
If this is what she can do adjusting in real time, I can only imagine how strong the full Louvre experience is under ideal conditions!
