What to expect
Your guide meets you and maps out the route, adjusting for your pace and curiosity. Expect steady walking over mostly flat ground, with stops at each major site for context and photos. The guide provides commentary on architectural styles, historical moments, and why each landmark matters to Parisians themselves. You'll pass through well-trodden public spaces—the energy varies by time of day. Restaurant suggestions come with honest notes on what to expect and reservation help if needed. The tour wraps before fatigue sets in, leaving you oriented for independent exploration.
