Wear comfortable shoes because this is a long walk. We had a fit, tall tour guide who was determined to cover it all from Pont St Louis at one end to the Ecole Militaire at the other. A really great introduction to Paris. We stopped for lunch in Tuilleries gardens as part of the experience.

A great English-speaking guide covered all of the spots, including adding on the Holocaust Memorial, which was very moving. You should add that to your itinerary.

The guide was a doll. But way too much walking and too brief looking at things. Great place we stopped at for lunch.

Our guide did not know enough about the area we were visiting. Couldn't answer questions like what kind of trees are lining the Tuileries gardens, for instance. Not great, but pleasant enough.

This company seems to hire American students, who came to Paris to learn French, to guide the tours. They are not professional guides but people who know less about Paris than you who just came. Just do not waste your money! It is better to read some books on Paris rather than take this tour.

I was very disappointed with this tour. A lot of ground was covered and there were many sites to see. However, our guide throughout the tour while very friendly, was not very knowledgeable. He wasn't able to answer the most basic questions, attach historical significance to the sites, or provide any information. He was able to tell us what we were looking at, but I could have done that myself with a self-guided walking tour and a copy of a travel guide.
