“Catherine is a phenomenal tour guide. Montmartre is such an interesting area to explore, but so much of the history and charm would have escaped us if we would have gone on our own. Catherine is knowledgeable, kind, and presented us with excellent food spots. This tour gave me the best understanding of French culture and history from my trip, worth every penny.”
