Continue with your guide towards the river Seine and see many famous sites, including the imposing Conciergerie, where Marie Antoinette was imprisoned before her execution.

I wish we could remember his name, but his honesty was the cutest. The guided tour part with him is outside. There was some confusion on that. You do the inside by yourself. Just be aware of this. Over all a great tour.

Paula was so friendly and made the tour fun and interesting. She was very helpful, giving lots of information and recommendations

NICE BACKGROUND INFO ABOUT FRENCH HISTORY AND LOUVRE SURROUNDINGS.
