My Genie in Paris
  

« The Normandy tour was great and our guide was wonderful. »

Brian and Linda Akchin, New York, 02/06/09
  

« While in Paris I booked a trip to Versailles, about which we were very satisfied. It was nice to have the guide on the train and our tour guide in the palace was informative and charming. I enjoyed the tour and the water garden event thoroughly. »

Camille, Brisbane, 29/04/09
  

« MGIP was very prompt to return calls, answer any questions and rectify any issues we had whilst there. You were great on our arrival and really co-ordinated the trip in such a way that we had the flexibility to do what we wanted but also hit the major tourist destinations essential to any first time visit. »

« I booked the gourmet tour for my friend as a gift and she described it as fabulous! She was amazed by the croissants and the cheeses especially. »

« We were extremely pleased with the baking tour. It exceeded our expectations vastly as, of course the two of you were fantastic tour guides. As for the activity, the two of you were great tour guides allowing us to ask a ton of questions and even giving us hands on fun with the bread baker downstairs and the patisserie people upstairs. The fresh croissants that we ate during our activity were PHENOMENAL and it's amazing how delicious they taste when they first come out of the oven. It was also fun shaping our own breads and putting them into the oven. Seeing the pain au chocolat and croissant making with the machines was very eye-opening and all-in-all, this was one of our favorite activities here in Paris! »

« We especially loved the market tour with Marc and the photography day with Eugenie. The Aligre market was fabulous, the history and culture, and all the wonderful gourmet delights to sample! Fantastic! Marc's passion for his heritage and the way he was able to explain the cultural significance of the various foods etc was just what we were after. He really made the tour special. As for Eugenie...what an absolute delight. Not only is she a superb photographer, but a lovely warm person who was able to help me capture images that I would not have been able to do on my own. This was a fantastic opportunity to see Paris with a professional photographer to give tips and guidance. We also have some wonderful photos of the two of us in Paris now. If we could take her home with us, we would!!! »

« Hi Stephane Writing back from Johannesburg, South Africa where we are now approaching winter and the air is getting chilly. Wish we were back in Paris! What a wonderful city! What a wonderful experience my wife and I had. And it was made all the better thanks to the service we received from our booking agent, Paris Visit Services, and My Genie in Paris. Without a doubt the smartest thing we did on our trip was booking the Paris Museum Pass through My Genie. We were a little unsure of the whole procedure but the passes were waiting for us when we checked in and were invaluable as we used them numerous times every day in Paris. We had never been to Paris before and it is a cultural overload. The museum pass allowed us to skip the notorious queues at the major attractions (I don’t do queues well) and allowed us entrance to so many of the wonderful ‘must sees’ in you fabulous city. The list is exhaustive but includes the Louvre, d’Orsay, Notre Dame, the Arc, Georges Pompidou, l’Orangerie, Rodin which must be on everyone’s “top 10 to see list” and so many more. Without a doubt, when we visit Paris again we will most definitely use My Genie. Best regards Demot & Erica »

« . We booked two trips with MGIP. The first was a trip to Versaille, which is a beautiful place, but was made so much more enjoyable by the quality of our tour guide Emilie. She was such a well informed, polite and cheerful girl that what was a great way to spend a day turned into an excellent way. Our second trip was the Champagne river trip and this again was such a lovely event. Again, the guide was brilliant, and this trip was a memorable event. I hope that anybody reading this doesn't think this is a made up account of what happened because if they are clever they will book their events with MGIP. »

Greg & Gillian Loughnane, USA, June 09
  

« Our guided tour of the Louvre was probably the highlight of the trip. All 4 of us have been to Paris many times but never had such a rich and entertaining museum experience. In fact, we had gone to the Louvre on our own the previous year and the experience was not remotely comparable. Our guide, did not just talk about the history of the art, she told stories all the way through that captured our imagination, gave us a meaningful context, and true appreciation for the building, the history, and the art. We were all genuinely engaged and had a blast for the entire 3.5 hour tour. »

Debbie Lis, Canada, 14/01/09
  

« In simple terms we thought that you guys were exceptional (fabulous my wife said) and we were very pleased with everything you did. Next time in Paris we are using my genie again. »

Nikolaos MAVRO DUBAI, 10/02/09
  

« I could not get a booking directly through the Moulin Rouge website, but it was easy through My Genie. And at the last minute too. Had a fabulous evening! Merci beaucoup »

Shirley Reaburn, Los Angeles, 30/01/09
  

« We did ask Alex to set up a Christmas Light Tour for the 4 of us. He suggested and we took 2 tiny antique cars (each couple had a car and guide). The guides were knowledgeable, personable, and spoke very good English--that was a real treat. We also had Alex arrange a 4 hour historic/architecture tour of Ile de Cite and churches in San Germaine. »

Mary Gay, New York, 21/01/08
  

« We really liked the fact that we could ask you about the non-touristy things and that you knew lots of little things like where the best french breakfast in Paris is. We liked the fact that you didn't push us into anything but were there to answer our questions and advise us on what we wanted to know. Also you took into account the fact that we had a baby who we needed to plan around. We found you very knowledgable and helpful about all that we wanted to know »

Desiree De Courcy, New Zealand – 15/01/08
  

« Your services were just what we wanted. It took all the guess work out of finding museums, restaurants and activities. We've traveled all around the world and missed a bunch of good stuff in each city because of "not knowing" the area. Even after hours of computer research and book reading, we still missed things. Hiring your company to ensure we got the "best of the best" in your city was money well spent. We'll recommend to all our friends. »

Tom P., South Carolina, March 2008
  

« I was very appreciative of the prompt and efficient communications I received from My Genie, including the follow-up telephone calls to make sure we were on the same page. It was great to know that I had some arrangements pre-arranged, and even better to have someone to call upon once we were in Paris. »

Margot Congdon, London, 10/06/08
  

« All of your arrangements were wonderful. The cheese tasting was amazing. The private tours of the Louvre and Tour Eiffel were excellent. Merci, merci. »

Tim and Debbie, Sept 2008
  

« We enjoyed every minute and were so glad we used My Genie to help us choose the things we wanted to do and book them in advance. Your patience, even when we changed plans at the last minute, is much appreciated. We will certainly contact you when we visit Paris again. First of all, you were very responsive to me in my planning phase, which helped alleviate my anxiety about the tip enormously. »

James Stuart, Connecticut, 08/12/08
  

« Days, weeks, months have gone by since our summer trip and we still remember how you managed to make our stay special!! We got personalized treatment that can rarely be found anywhere and we surely can't wait till your services are provided to cover other cities. We wish you continued success and good luck. »

Reem, Jamal and Hamad, Saudi Arabia 07/11/08
  

« I want to thank you for arranging our visit to the bakery. It was truly one of the highlights of our time in Paris. I hope to visit later this year with some of my staff so they can see the working of a great french bakery. you are very personable and it is apparent that you enjoy your job. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us. »

Sue Johansen, Toronto, 14/05/09

Jill Bryan, Illinois – 04/04/09
  

« Thanks for all the great advice and guidance. We had a WONDERFUL time, and we'll be back, for sure. We found Paris gracious and very welcoming. My french got better as the week went on, but everyone we encountered was wonderful about it!. »

« We are back in Holland, but I wanted to thank you for your kind efforts to assist us while we were visiting Paris last week. It was a wonderful trip and we look forward to returning soon! You offer a terrific service and we hope to work with you in the future! Take care and thanks, again! »

« Your service is a great one, in particular to people who may not have seen Paris before. It is a nice personal touch when you show up at the apartment with computer in hand and print out, while we wait all the best places to see and eat. Thanks, »

Lesa H, September 2007
  

« We just arrived home and I wanted to tell you that I thought your service was great. We really appreciated your professional and helpful visit and we did use a lot of the info. You gave us, It was really good getting the map and the brochures and also the printed itinerary you proposed for us - we managed to pack quite a lot into our visit and had a fabulous time. So thanks once again, and I will recommend you if we know anyone coming over to Paris. »

Carolyn & Michael W, October 2007
  

« We wanted to let you know that our day trip to Chantilly and the lunch was very good, and we also enjoyed the day when Remi showed us around the city. Bateaux-Mouches was very nice, but cold because we chose to sit on top to get pictures. Even with the cold, it was a great way to see a bit of the city without having to walk.We appreciated your assistance with everything. Best regards, »

Holly M, USA, November 2007
  

« My decision to travel was influenced by My Genie in Paris as I had very little notice and decided to go only because you took care of my itinerary and made my trip so much easier. My sincere thanks and appreciation. »

Jane H, USA, July 2008
  

« We were glad to have found you. Our challenge was to maximise our short time availability and with your help we managed to squeeze in all that we wanted without any of the problems of trying to do it all by ourselves. We will certainly use your services again and will tell our friends of you. »

Brian H, Australia, June 2008
  

« I had a wonderful experience with My Genie in Paris. The idea was excellent - providing us with places to visit and surounding restaurants, etc. I absolutly recommend your service and have already done so to a few friends. Everyone was extremely kind and helpful and accommodating. When I needed drivers, you guys provided me with excellent drivers. I was very impressed and would not recommend you change anything about your service!! »

Ragida A., Texas, July 2008
  

« You certainly made some of the things we wanted to do in Paris, and surrounding area, simpler, especially providing us with the museum passes without us having to queue for them, and arranging the special tour of the Cathedral at Chartres. Regards »

Margaret B, London May 2007
  

« Greetings from Chicago! We had a wonderful trip to Paris! It was certainly convenient to make the plans at our apartment. Thank you for meeting us there upon our arrival in Paris. We were happy to have the 4 day museum pass. I lost track of how many museums/monuments we visited. We are looking foward seeing you again »

Steve and Helen Anne K, Chicago, July 2007
  

« Your service was perfect and the advice too! We loved the trip with fat tyre to Versailles, it was the best we have done so far. Many thanks, »

Rosaura P., February 2007
  

« Your service was excellent - we were really glad to have had such a good talk to Emily on the first day, and to get the museum pass and batobus passes from her then, plus the very useful suggestions, most of which we followed - having an itinerary really helped to structure the days and make the most of our visit. We were also very glad of the car service to the airport, which had us there in plenty of time! We will certainly be recommending your service to friends and family. »

Alison B, October 2007
  

« You really made our stay in Paris so easy and definitely helped us to avoid some potential problems in bookings for events and trains.

This is the sort of service that one expects from tourism in Paris! Three cheers for them Hip Hip Hourray! Hip Hip Hourray! Hip Hip Hourray! »

« Your service is a great idea and your suggestions quite valuable »

Stefen and Loredana L, December 2006
  

« The information you provided was invaluable, although a bit much to process at first. However, once we started walking around the city and popping up at various metro stations, we gathered our footing and your lists/guides/maps were extremely helpful. It was also very comforting to meet with someone on our first who spoke perfect English ... that was fantastic!! We will certainly contact you when we return to Paris!!! »

Ryder H, USA, December 2006
  

« the My Genie In Paris services that you all provided were very helpful in making decisions on what to do when during our brief stay. It was difficult trying to coordinate for such a diverse group, but having the highlights pointed out, and the detailed itinerary were great. We would definitely use this service again, and recommend it to others we know who may be visiting Paris in the future. »
