Paris, the City of Lights. It didn't get that moniker for no reason. This city is absolutely stunning. I love going to Paris; it's a whole new experience every single time. So, are you in the mood for a Parisian adventure that feels straight out of a blockbuster? With your local host guiding the way, you'll dive into the heart of the City of Light, exploring my favorite famous landmarks and uncovering hidden treasures. Let's jump into this epic experience!
First stop: the Eiffel Tower. Picture this – the iron lady of Paris standing tall against the sky, just waiting for you to snap that perfect shot. It's not just a landmark; it's a symbol of love and dreams. As you capture the moment from the outside, don't forget to spend some time taking in the view yourself. It's something that cannot be recreated.
Next, you'll hop on a bus to the Louvre Museum. Home to the legendary Mona Lisa and countless other masterpieces, the Louvre is a treasure trove of art. Your host will take you on a whirlwind visit of the highlights, sharing stories that bring the art to life. And those glass pyramids outside? They're Instagram gold. Plus, did you know this iconic spot has starred in numerous movies? Your host will dish all the behind-the-scenes details.
On Tuesdays, when the iconic museum is closed, admire the grandeur of Notre Dame from the outside. Marvel at its stunning architecture, from the intricate facade to the breathtaking rose windows. Uncover the secrets of this Parisian landmark as you stroll through the charming streets of Île de la Cité.
Feeling peckish? Just a minute's walk away is Le Café Marly, where you can lunch like a Parisian. Imagine biting into delicious French cuisine while gazing at the Louvre – it's the ultimate dining experience with a view.
After refueling, take a bus to the Arc de Triomphe. Capture the perfect shot from the ground and imagine the stunning views from its top. It's a must-see for any visitor to Paris.
From the Arc, stroll down to the Champs-Élysées, the most iconic avenue in Paris. This quick three-minute walk takes you to a shopper's paradise. From luxury boutiques to charming cafes, the Champs-Élysées has it all. Whether you're window shopping or treating yourself to something special, this avenue is a must-see.
Throughout this thrilling journey, your host will pepper in fun facts, insider tips, and personal stories, making every moment memorable. This isn't just about seeing Paris – it's about experiencing it through the eyes of a local, uncovering the city's secrets, and making memories you'll cherish forever. Remember, Paris is your playground, and I hope you fall head over heels just like I did.

One of my goals in staying in The Marais was to experience Jewish culture in the area. Elli did such a great job with this, weaving it into the larger history of the neighborhood and showing us places we would not have found on our own.
Show moreOur guide met us at the Gare du Nord and took us all over the city. Hristo knows the city like the back of his hand and has amazing insights into its history. I would highly recommend City Unscripted for any opportunity to get to know the real Paris.
Show moreI cannot say enough wonderful things about my amazing tour with Isabel yesterday. We talked several times in advance of the trip to incorporate my ideas and priorities and her recommendations to put together the perfect itinerary. We hit a few highlights of the city and some things I really wanted to see, like Notre Dame, while also spending a lot of time off the tourist path to find the hidden gems within the city. We strolled through most of the districts, exploring libraries and books, shops, and churches and bakeries and markets. We nibbled on crêpes and pretzels and sampled nougets and sugared fruits, and hot cocoa and did a little shopping. She showed me hidden courtyards and beautiful, quaint, alleyways with mosaic tiles and every imaginable architectural style within the city. We strolled and chatted like friends and just shared the most wonderful day together. It was perfection.
Show moreViator is hit or miss and not always reliable, but their subcontract to City Unscripted worked out well this time. Roffy from "City Unscripted" was an excellent guide and spent six hours with my nephew and I showing us around Paris including some of the more well known land marks along with some hidden "surprises". There were several places we went to that would never have been on our list given this was our first time in Paris so in my opinion, this tour was worth every cent to get a local perspective and see some lesser known things. Having a guide with a set route and plan also made the day much more efficient and we were able to pack in a lot. Roffy was an excellent guide. She is very knowledgeable and was fun to hang out with and the time flew by! I would highly recommend this tour (especially for a first trip to Paris)!
Show moreWe did a 4-hour walking tour with Florencia, who was friendly, knowledgeable, and fantastic! She customized our tour to the details we sent ahead of time as well as based on our interests that day. She was able to answer all the questions we asked and even made sure she got us to the restaurant we had reservations at, at the end of the tour. We did this on our first day in Paris, and it was SUPER helpful in seeing the major sights and orienting us to the city. We loved it!
Show moreWe took a day trip to Paris from London on our Honeymoon. We met the guide at Gare du Nord. He took us all over the city. Hristo was able to answer all of our questions. He has a deep and rich knowledge of the city. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to have the trip of your life.
