Loved this tour, Imene was so cute! Very sweet and knowledgeable, im glad I chose to do Eiffel Tower with a guide, she knew a lot about the history of the tower and did a great job at answering questions. I am also glad I went at night, it wasn’t as crowded and it was incredibly beautiful seeing the city at night especially with the moon hanging low and glowing red. Highly recommend.
Loula was the greatest tour guide. She made several stops along the way to the Eiffel Tower to explain about architecture, about Paris and interesting tidbits. She was witty and did some little guessing games with us. All 8 participants were happy and thankful that Loula was assigned to guide our group.
My tour guides name was Imene & she made the tour 100% more enjoyable. Imene was very very knowledgeable and very polite aswell which made me feel so much more comfortable. Imene knew alot about the history and ensured all of our questions were answered. Would definitely recommend if Imene was the tour guide.
