Christmas Market La Defense

Michael_K, Dec 2023

It was great visiting the Christmas Market at La Defense. There are so many stalls to stop at We brought chocolates, soap, and my wife brought a change purse Del our guide was amazing, as she walked us through, allowing time to stop Enjoyed a cup of hot wine. Allowed my wife time to do some shopping. This tour allows one to plan their own agenda.

I had a great time seeing Paris during the holiday season with Daniel. We saw all the highlights and he took me to some hidden gems he knew I'd like to see. Had a blast during the 3 hours. Great guide.
