We had a wonderful time with Blandine! She was incredibly patient with our kids and made sure we got to hit all the spots even though we were running a little long. The kids loved all the treats and we got some great history of the city along with tips for other parts of our trip. It was definitely a highlight of our time in Paris for both us and the kids!

Sonia was absolutely fantastic. She was kind and very engaging. She was good at tailoring the tour based on our kids' interests. We had a really great time on the tour and learned a ton! I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone with kids. Without this tour, we would have been overwhelmed and the kids would probably have been bored and complained a lot!

We booked the Tower of London Kids Tour for July 26, 2024. The booking experience was easy, and communication with Albane was great right from the very first click. On the day, our guide Mehru created an amazing experience for our multi-generational group of five (ages 7 to 77). We really appreciated how she was able cater the tour to our group, sometimes even on the fly when our daughter surprised us by being a little more scared of the gruesome details of history than we all expected. Mehru was able to find places for us to sit, take photos of our group at the best spots and even offered to video record us climbing up a very tiny spiral staircase. I won't spoil any of the really creative details of tour, but needless to say, more daughter loved the special touches. Even though the tour was a little on the expensive side, we could definitely recognize the difference in quality service, Mehru's impeccable knowledge of the different towers and layout of the Tower of London, the history of all the people who have inhabited the castle, and it's greater importance within the history of the City of London. We absolutely could not have replicated the experience on our own. This was definitely the best tour we booked of our entire two week trip. If I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would. We highly, highly recommend, and will hopefully have the opportunity to book another tour the next time we visit the UK or Paris.

Booking our tour was so easy and accommodating. By taking the tour with Doina I feel we recall a lot more of the magic of Versailles and this period in history. Doina’s knowledge of Versailles and French history meant our questions could be answered and the handy workbook for the kids meant they took home a special memento of their visit. Thanks to having a dedicated guide we have some very special family photos to remember the visit. We visited on a Sunday and the lines weren’t too bad but still very handy to be able to skip these on a hot day with little people.

Nathalie TRES BONNE!!!!!! Ma fille l’aimait et Nathalie est favourite! She was the perfect way for us to start our Paris and French vacation! Nathalie was great connecting with our daughter who started out quiet and shy...we learned so much about the city and spent some nice time in Montmarte, which is where I (mom) was most interested in, as I knew we wouldn't get there without a guide! HIGHLY SUGGEST!!!!

I highly recommend this company. Dominique helped organize a wide variety of tours for my family in Paris including the Louvre, the Orsay, Versailles and Montmartre. She was super responsive to my emails and calls and made sure all the details were worked out before we arrived to Paris. The guides that did the tours were great with the kids and we had a blast.

Meet the locals provided my family with the BEST tour experiences in Paris. I would recommend this company to everyone and anyone! Our children will never forget each and every thoughtfully planned out activity that MTL planned for us.

Three generations of my family enjoyed a wonderful trip from Paris to Versailles under the guidance of Yaëlle from Meet the Locals for Families. Her knowledge of local history, combined with her love of sharing that history, made for a wonderful afternoon. She did not rush her tour, and customized the timeline to accommodate feedings, breaks for the kids, and coffee for Grampa. The tour started on the train, utilizing the time to educate the adults on the timelines for Versailles and to entertain the children with activity books. We are still talking about it 3 weeks later. I would highly recommend Yaëlle as she did a wonderful job.

We had a wonderful tour with Tifenn! She was extremely knowledgeable and made learning really fun for our boys (8 & 10). We loved the clues and activity books, and our boys loved working for the ‘treat’ at the end. Thanks for a memorable tour!

Our family LOVED our Sweet & Chocolate tour with Nathalie. The tour with Nathalie was excellent. She was wonderful and we give her the highest ratings. She was so kind, nice and professional. She took us to so many food stops (more than any other 2 hour food tour our family has been on in other countries). We had a large amount of food which was fabulous as we all were hungry. She paced us well and did not rush any food stop. The tour had many/varied types of French chocolate and desserts. We would not change anything and hope many more families can enjoy this tour with Nathalie!!

We had booked multiple tours (Chocolate and pastry tour, Versailles, Louvre and a Tuk-Tuk ride that ended in Montmartre) with Meet the Locals during our stay in Paris. I was glad we had Laurine for all the tours. She was engaging with my kids and kept them interested in everything that we did. Our kids thoroughly enjoyed learning about the history of Versailles and the art in the Louvre. The chocolate and pastry tour were so much fun, and we were able to taste different things. I highly recommend Laurine and Meet the Locals. It felt more like our friend was taking us through Paris then a regular tour guide!

We had the most incredible time with both Nathalie and Sebastien. They were just wonderful people to go on the tours with and they both engaged our teenage son Zach, who speaks fluent French and mixed up the French and English brilliantly for us as we don’t speak French. When we visit Paris again we will definitely be booking another food tour. We returned to the area where we had the tour to grab more of the delicious goodies we tasted. We also did the side car tour, to the absolute delight of everyone involved, and the tour of Versailles. If you are after unique and memorable experiences, you can’t do better than Meet the Locals.

We did the Louvre, Sainte Chapelle, & Eiffel Tower Tour. Ms Cindy was great! Fabulous communication from a few days before all the way through the end. She was able to keep the attention of our 6yo and teens as well as us adults. We also had booked the Versailles tour, but it was cancelled last minute due to Versailles closing for safety reasons. Ms Cindy met us as planned, let us know the situation, but it officially closed before we made it out there. Without question we were totally refunded. I’m typically very hands on and will plan everything and buy all tickets on my own. I am so thankful we trusted Meet the Locals for these activities as I know we got more fun and less stress from going with them instead of relying on myself.

Our tour was absolutely FABULOUS! Nathalie was fantastic. The clue game kept my son (and all the rest of us) engaged and excited to explore the Montmartre area. She gave us such great information and was so kind. It was an absolutely wonderful experience!

We had the most amazing guide named Steven while we were in London! He took us around the city as well as the Tower of London and Westminster Abbey. He was sooooo knowledgeable about all things London and was so great with the kids too! 5 stars all the way!
