    Our tour guide Josephine did a superb and entertaining job explaining the history of the Eiffel Tower. Highly recommend!

    The Louvre Museum is one of the most amazing museums in the entire world, located right in the…read moreheart of Paris. The approach to the entrance felt significant, with the glass pyramid acting as a central anchor point surrounded by courtyards, wings, and long stretches of stone façades that hinted at the scale of what was inside. The building combines historic palace architecture with vast modern exhibition spaces. Inside, the experience unfolded through sheer size more than anything else. Galleries branched in multiple directions, each holding different periods and regions, from ancient civilizations to classical European art. I moved through long corridors and open halls, sections that shifted in both atmosphere and lighting depending on the collection. One moment I was in a dimly lit room of Greek antiquities, the next I was under bright skylights surrounded by French paintings. Even without focusing on individual works, the density of what is housed here was immediately noticeable. The layout encouraged wandering rather than a strict path, and I found it easy to lose track of time moving between rooms, staircases, and open gathering areas. Some sections felt busier and more compressed, especially around the most famous works. Other areas opened up into quieter pockets where the scale of the building became more apparent. I appreciated those quiet moments the most.

    A dream come true to finally visit the Louvre. If you want to make sure to get in, you have to…read morepurchase your tickets online, and preferably at 9am when they first open. We arrived an hour early and was second in line so we got to be one of the first to see the Mona Lisa right as they opened and were able to get as close as the public can get. The museum is closed to the public every Tuesday. We walked through the day before and it seemed that groups in conferences is what goes on during those Tuesdays that they're closed. I booked our tickets 2 months in advance, and was able to get the opening day slot for two. And just 20 minutes after opening, the room 711 in the Denon Wing where the Mona Lisa is, got packed. You can spend the whole day here and still not have seen everything. There are multiple floors filled with art work, and luckily there are elevators. There's also a small cafe, and restaurant on the first level, and then another cafe at the second. At the exit it almost turns into a mall of shops and eateries. So it might take you another hour past when you thought you'd be exiting. You definitely want good walking shoes, cuz you'll loose track of how far you walked, even after 3 hours.

    A few Saturdays ago, some very good friends asked if we would like to join them and their little…read moredog on a 2-hour guided tour of Montmartre Well, we both know Montmartre very well, me, after nearly 55 years visiting Paris...apart from anything else, it's the only place to get all your haberdashery needs! (Oh yes it is!) But this was to be a little different. Our guide would take us around, pointing out all the main places where artists, poets, musicians and writers had lived and how they lived, the bars they frequented and generally who met who, where, when, why It was an excellent visit. There were so many little side streets that I had never been to; buildings I knew as a "site", but not in terms of their history; little parks; who the statues were and why they were there; the old entrances to the metro stations and much more....also she introduced us to Flashinvader, see below*, but beware, it is addictive, though if you are bringing kids, then it's a big bonus She did not bother doing the normal sites; that was not the purpose. Rather it was about the long gone, hidden history. During my French studies all those years ago, I had read most of the books and poems we discussed; since when, I had probably seen most of the art referred to (BTW, just don't miss the Musee d'Orsay or even the little museum in Montmartre itself) and heard the music She was very patient, answered all our questions, had enlarged photos of everything so you could understand what Montmartre used to look like all those years ago ie being outside of Paris then One more thing. We all speak fluent French, but she spoke seriously good English, both in terms of vocabulary but also accent, which is just as important for understanding Oh, wear sensible shoes - if you didn't know, its very up and down We had a great time and fully recommend Elisa to you. If you look her up online you will see plenty of other visit opportunities *Flashinvader: its an app. All over the place little space invader art is dotted around; mostly you have to look up to near the street signs. And not just in Montmartre or even just Paris. There is a fan who is patiently logging a map of them all over the world. You get points; its just a bit of fun...but who knew?!

    As I have watched the news coverage of the fire at Notre Dame Cathedral I am saddened at the loss…read moreyet happy for what has been saved. I look forward to returning someday to see the restored structure. I am also reminded of a review that is long overdue. My wife and I went to Paris from the United States for the first time but were only able to visit for three days. Because of the short visit, we wished to see as many of the famous Parisian sites as possible. We arranged for a day of sightseeing to visit the Louvre, the Eifel Tour and Notre Dame Cathedral. Our personal tour guide for the day was Sylvanie. You could not ask for a more personable and knowledgeable escort for our journey. Sylvanie was absolutely amazing in her knowledge of everything Parisian as well of her intimate knowledge of the tourist locations. Not only was Sylvanie able to intelligently answer my wife's (who has studied art) questions, she was able to also answer my (no art history what-so-ever) relative simple questions. When I ask why the Mona Lisa is such a popular painting when there are so many more beautiful works in the Louvre, she tells the complete history of exactly why the painting is such a tourist draw (Actually quite an interesting story. You should ask her). When my wife asks about the painting on the opposite wall, the Feast at Cana, Sylvanie doesn't miss a beat and has a vivid story about how France came into possession of this work of art. Our trip to the Notre Dame Cathedral was equally impressive. Her knowledge of the art and history of the cathedral was astounding. I have been remembering quite a lot of my time at the cathedral as I have been watching the news reports of the fire. My wife and I were able to understand so much more of the history through Sylvanie's stories than had we simply gone on our own. Everything about our day was perfectly planned by Sylvanie and was executed seamlessly. She had arranged for car service for us and each time the car arrived shortly after our exit at each location. Our admission to each attraction was pre-purchased by Sylvanie prior to our arrival and we simply followed her into each location and felt like VIPs. It is obvious that Sylvanie worked hard prior to our arrival to make sure that our day was perfect. That sort of perfection does not come easily. My wife and I simply fell in love with Paris and will be returning soon. When we return, we will definitely use Sylvanie's services again. We could not have asked for a more perfect day and her fees were actually quite reasonable. We had a private tour with a lovely extremely knowledgeable tour guide for what it would otherwise cost for a group tour. I would recommend her to anybody wishing to see the sites Paris has to offer.

    Oh my gosh, where to start?! Sylvanie is absolutely AMAZING !! She is so kind and gracious while…read morealso being incredibly fun and genuine. Her knowledge of art, history, and local quirks is so very impressive AND entertaining. My friend and I loved our day with Sylvanie so much that we went out on a second, smaller tour with her another day. If you're going to Paris, do yourself the enormous favor and spend a day or two with Sylvanie!
