I did a 3 hour private tour with my guide Paul. Paul had planned a great itinerary to see everything I was interested in. Beyond that he showed me many other points of interests of which I was not previously aware. Paul was very knowledgeable about each site as well as the general history of France. He also had a deep knowledge of architecture, art, and contemporary music. He was very easy to speak with and his English was on par with a native speaker. At the end of the tour Paul revealed that this was actually his first tour! I would have never guessed based on how smoothly everything went and how comfortable he was able to navigate and speak about the various sites. I cannot recommend this experience highly enough. If you have the opportunity do not miss out.
