Paulina took us to many corners of Paris we wouldn’t have seen. The pastry and lunch stops were delicious. My only piece of advice is to bring a large umbrella as our ending was quick as it began to rain.

The guide did not have a set places to go. He took us some places down the street from our hotel that he had never been before. When we got to a couple of places to eat he had us pay for everything including his. We should get our money back for this tour.
