based on 6 reviews

I’m incredibly happy that I had the perfect guide for me in Barcelona. She was extremely knowledgeable down to the small details. My guide knew all the back streets shortcuts restaurants churches architecture that your beautiful city had to offer

Must seeing when you are in Paris.

You can enjoy Versailles palace and the Gardens. Tickets come with no problem, but there may be a wait time at the security chack in the entrance, sa it’s better to be there before the opening hour.

Wonderful way to explore the city and get information on the first day

Highly recommended as a first impression! Also numerous insider tips.

Fantastic guide Catharina gave us an experience of a lifetime
