“Julia was very kind to take just 2 of us on a personal walk through Montmarte. We started with coffee and croissants. We were worried that the hilly Montmarte would be a challenge, but Julia knew where to pass that did not climb stairs, nor steep walkways. We got to choose some lovely cheese and wine, had a picnic in a small park while Julia talked about our surroundings. She took our photos, gave us tips on where to go, gave us a map link for our next destination. We ended in Chez Eugene at Place du Tertre, where she let us taste some delicious deviled eggs. Will definitely recommend…”
