I am a curious soul who’s lived in the city of lights for over a decade now. I studied acting, with a focus on improvisational theatre, creative writing, and I'm also a linguist. I am addicted to Paris, in love with its history, and telling it is one of the things I love the most. Storytelling by nature, being a tour guide has been the medium I’ve found to bring my skills with my greatest passions together. These are art, comedy, people, history, languages, travel, and communication. I can't wait to meet you and take you on this journey!

La verdad es que nos ha encantado la experiencia, nos ha contado un montón de cosas interesantes que nos han ayudado a entender la ciudad, mezcla datos con curiosidades y los adereza con un par de chistes, no hay mejor forma de mantener la atención! El único contra es que éramos un grupo muy grande, más de 30 personas, y eso creo que nos ha ralentizado, hemos acabado media hora más tarde de lo previsto y nos ha tocado correr para seguir con nuestros planes.

Un poco decepcionadas con el tour. Tenemos la impresión de que París tiene que tener más historia que la que escuchamos. También más lugares por los que pasar y donde parar para contar algo. Creo que las explicaciones no están unidas entre ellas y no sacas mucho en claro.

No fue para nada lo que esperaba. El nivel de información relevante fue muy bajo. Muy pocos aportes realmente útiles como para un primer contacto en una ciudad tan rica culturalmente. Siempre al llegar a una ciudad importante realizamos los tour para ubicarnos. En este viaje por Europa el realizado fue nuestro 8° free tour y es al único que no le dimos buena valoración. Lamento de igual forma el decirlo, porque sin dudas no es grato, como el haberlo realizado.
