About your guide

For Meeting the French, touring the Eiffel tower is 'old school'. They don't herd you onto a bus and have you driven to the famous sights. Oh no, they focus on intimate and original experiences which celebrate the French lifestyle and culture, helping you to see the real Paris. The city they call home.

Here’s the plan…

You’ll meet up at the exit of Alma-Marceau Metro Station (sortie 3), from where your guide will take you around the President Wilson market.

There you’ll experience a busy open-air market with stalls ranging from meats and fish to flowers and bread. It’ll be a taste and sight sensation. You’ll sample a crepe (well, it’s that time of the morning!), enjoy a coffee and also not forgetting to visit a brasserie for a gourmet break. It’ll be stylish and very Parisian.

This is two hours of experiencing the Paris lifestyle. Where conversations and laughter mix seamlessly with the hard sell of goods and products. An unforgettable morning tour.
