5 stars! We saw many hidden gems on this tour. Elizabeth was awesome! She is a true historian- so knowledgeable on all things Marais, Paris, and France! She is American, but has lived in Paris for 10 years. Highly recommend!!

Paula took us all around the Le Marais district and was full of interesting information, the good and the bad. There is so much history and beauty in this area including Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis church with its iconic bright red doors. Paula was sure to give us the background on all of these. We even asked a 100 follow-up questions as we moved between sites and Paula was excited to answer them. After the tour she followed up with an email reminder of the best restaurants that she had pointed out on the tour.
