Sorry for the late update, but Michael is AMAZING!

We were in Paris for 8 days in April and hired him for 2 - and they were our favorite 2 days in Paris :) My gosh, what a wonderful guy. I actually got tears in my eyes on the last evening when I hugged him and we parted ways. It was like saying goodbye to an old friend. He really *is* that special!

Highly, HIGHLY recommended.

PS: On day one we explored Père Lachaise Cemetery (his knowledge is mind boggling!), lunch and The Louvre (this is THE guy to take with you here.. he made the art come alive for us).

Day two we did a "foodie day" consisting of beautiful and lively outdoor markets, wine & lunch, macarons, chocolates, cheeses and pastry shops. Also a lot of fun walking, and incredible historical stops along the way on both days. He is so knowledgeable, fun and endearing.

He embodies the phrase "Your wish is my command". No request is too big or small for him.

On both days at my request, we met in the morning over coffee to talk a bit about the day ahead. Lovely way to start the day.

Love, love, LOVE him!
