Best Private Tour in Paris

Tri_N, Jan 2024

Absolutely love our recent trip to Paris. Milan, our Paris tour guide, was prompt, knowledgeable, and personable. Highly professional and attentive prior to, during and even after the tour. Our overall experience was excellent! Will use WITH LOVE FROM PARIS TOURS again for future trips and heartily recommend!! Thank you Milan for making our first trip to Paris a wonderful and unforgettable experience!

Paris In A Day

Stella_T, Oct 2023

My family and I went on a trip to Paris in October, it being our first time. We spent the day with Milan, our personal tour guide, he was wonderful in showing us around all of the main highlights of the city. He showed us many locations with a private driver as well. Milan was very knowledgable of the history of Paris. We highly recommend doing this tour and having Milan as a tour guide. We had an amazing time! Thank you very much! - The Thomas Family

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Merci beaucoup the Thomas Family! It was a great pleasure to share this time with you. Also, the neighborhood where you stayed was a perfect location to be more in tune with the local vibe, to see the daily routine of the French. I hope you enjoyed your whole vacation in Paris.

Fun and Wonderful Day around Paris

Maureen_S, Sep 2023

Milan was incredible. The experience was fun, educational and personal. I would highly recommend booking this trip. We saw more in a day with stops we never would have found on our own in a week

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Thank you Maureen and Joel for sharing a phenomenal time with me! Lots of fun and learning. I look forward to seeing you again on other trips, yes, outside of Paris. There is plenty more to discover :-)

Fabulous

Erin_P, Sep 2023

Our guide, Milan, was fabulous. He was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. We would go on any tour with him again.

Great day out in Paris!

Louisa_M, Aug 2023

We had a fantastic day with Milan yesterday - we never would have seen so much of Paris in one day if it weren’t for Milan (and we never felt rushed). Milan was very accomodating and showed us the main sites as well as stopped for special surprises along the way. He was also very accomodating of my mother’s sore legs post a long flight. Milan was very knowledgeable about history and was able to answer all our questions and keep us entertained along the way! Merci Milan!

Great introduction to Paris. Wonderful for families!

Richard_B, Aug 2023

Milan was a wonderful host for my family of four (kids ages 12 and 9) for our first full day in Paris. He met us at the hotel with a private driver (for an extra fee, to accommodate the five of us), with gifts for my girls. He was ver knowledgeable about the city, easily navigated around a triathlon occurring during the day, and was always attentive to when our kids were getting bored with the history and needed a little diversion. He took us to a lovely spot in Luxembourg Gardens and arranged for the kids to push sailboats across the pond for a bit, which of course my younger one said was the highlight of the trip. I would love to take another tour with Milan in the future!

Excellent

Dianne_M, Aug 2023

Milan was an excellent guide very knowledgeable and friendly, made us feel at home, would recommend to anyone

Paris best tour guide

Ashley_H, Jul 2023

Our day with Milan was the perfect way to experience the city. From starting at the outside portion of the Lourve for a history lesson to stopping into Shops at Gallery Layafette to take in a hidden view, all day was full but free form. When the kids started to have their attention wane, it was a stop for crepes or a playground in the Luxembourg Gardens to let them get out some energy and back on sightseeing. We would whole heartedly recommend Milan to anyone who wants to experience Paris from a locals point of view with the history, side stories, and culture he provides.

Highlights and special private places with Milan

Teri_F, Jun 2023

Milan is a fabulous guide. He brought French history alive with special stories and information, including diagrams. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with him. He showed us the highlights and special places that are more private. Highly recommend!!

Informative and fun

Phil_K, Jun 2023

This tour was great! Milan is a great guide. The tour is very educational and you will learn about things in Paris you did not know existed. I would recommend doing this tour early in your trip to Paris. Once you are done, you will be very familiar with Paris, the highlights, some secrets and how to navigate the city. Then you can go back to what you want to see more of. You will not go into any of the museums on this tour but you will see and learn about them.

Just wonderful!

George_P, Apr 2023

Wow! What a great time we had with our guide, Milan. He showed us the city in a such an easy, informative way. He shared so many little details and was always prepared with illustrations, articles, even videos to help us understand more about each place we visited. Perfect English. Just a wonderful experience.

Milan is the BEST!!!

Bryan_C, Mar 2023

Milan is super professional, very knowledgeable, and an overall incredible human being. He gave us such a lovely day in Paris and helped me coordinate my engagement to the love of my life. I can honestly say that Milan is now a friend to us. Booking this tour is totally worth the money and you will be glad to you chose Milan. His itinerary allows you time to see the iconic parts of the city while also not feeling rushed. Have nothing but love and respect for the man!

The best day in Paris!!

AYA_C, Dec 2022

Milan our tour guide was the best! We asked to see hidden gems and that’s what we saw!! We walked the streets of the Literary and philosophical history. Where Great thinkers and artist congregated. Luxembourg gardens, Pantheon, the life of Josephine Baker and her impact on the world up to today and we stood at the spot of the movie “Midnight in Paris” But most moving was the burial sight of a history of the Lafayette family, Napoleon and French history to it eliminate of the gUillotine in 1981. He brought it all to life. His knowledge was beyond what we’ve experienced!! And such a wonderful person. Thank you Milan for the most memorable day!!

Great Day in Paris!

Adriana_A, Nov 2022

We had a lovely day with Milan in Paris! He is very knowledgeable and was very patient with an extremely active 5 year old. We couldn’t have had a better experience! Worth every penny!!

An excellent tour and professional guide!

Karen_B, Sep 2022

Milan, was the perfect guide for our first day in Paris. By private car our tour included the "must-see" sights and special hidden gems all with Milan's knowledgeable insights and charming perspective. He made sure we were not rushed and were having every opportunity to snap pictures or ask questions. My friends and I agreed that it was a delightful day, well worth the money paid and was a highlight of our stay in Paris.

Super fun!

Tracy_K, Sep 2022

We got Milan as a guide and he was excellent! He took us all around Paris and hit the highlights by taking taxis and walking - it was the perfect length of time and amount of walking! We enjoyed the tour and Milan!

Paris literally in a day❤️

Donald_P, Sep 2022

Milan was awesome. We are history buffs so learning Paris history was so cool. Milan tailored the tour to what we wanted to see of Paris and knew everything and more about Paris. The Latin Quarter was so cool. The tour was worth every penny. Milan loved sharing his city.

Awesome Tour!!

whols22, Sep 2022

Milan was an exceptional tour guide! Very knowledgable & hospitable. I would definitely recommend Milan to anyone wanting to see & learn more about Paris.

Fantastic day out.

John_G, Aug 2022

Milan our guide met us at our hotel. He told us of the day ahead and what we would be visiting. We set off on foot and firstly came to the Eiffel Tower. We continued around Paris visiting some beautiful areas and being filled in on the history of the monuments and buildings by Milan. We also used taxis and the metropolitan during our day. Milan was a fantastic guide and we would highly recommend asking for him when booking. Our day finished back at our hotel at around 4pm. We thoroughly enjoyed our day out. Thank you very much Milan.

Highly Recommend

lori_l, Jul 2022

Milan was such an amazing tour guide! His knowledge of the area was outstanding. We showed up without a plan and ended up having an action packed day. He was very kind, funny, and willing for anything. I only had one day in Paris and he made it so I was able to see much more than I would have otherwise. I wanted to try French cheese and try hot chocolate and he was able to implement it seamlessly into our day. We visited a chocolate shop and he even purchased a few chocolates to try with us. If your looking for a tour guide who is fun and has a wide range of knowledge of the area, Milan is your man.
