Great tour of the city center with a fun guide. My family and I really enjoyed seeing all the beautiful sites. We went by the Notre Dame, the Louvre and the Seine river. Couldn't recommend it more. We liked the tour so much we decided to take Latin quarter and Montmartre tours during our time in Paris with the same guide.
