# Paris: Your Perfect Private Customized Day Tour–Half or Full Day

**Guidekin's take:** A private day built entirely around your list, half or full, rated 4.89 by 634 travelers. The concierge option.

In our comparison: #89 of 167 in Private Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Arrange your perfect day in Paris, designed entirely around you.

Treat yourself and your travel party to a special experience focused on what you want to see and do. Move at your own pace, with a private guide by your side throughout the day.

Your guide meets you at your hotel and accompanies you as you explore Paris your way. You can include major landmarks such as Notre Dame Cathedral or the Eiffel Tower, or lesser-known neighborhoods, hidden gems, food stops, beautiful viewpoints, and memorable photo stops. Your choice.

Your guide is a knowledgeable and personable Parisian who knows the city inside out and shapes the day naturally around your interests.

To move around Paris efficiently, like locals do, we use a mix of walking, the metro, and taxis/Uber when needed.

After booking, one of our Paris specialists will contact you personally to plan your day in detail, based on what you want to see and do.
