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 knowledge on the city, Quentin took us to some of the most beautiful and unknown places in Paris (he showed me some hide cool places that no guidebook talks about). I recommend very much.

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.

I did this tour with my husband and my children. We learned a lot about Paris and the Latin Quarter. The guide is good and involves the children. We are extremely happy with the tour.
