This was probably one of our top experiences. I thought Marie did a fantastic job of putting Montmartre into context as promised. I love that she brought along reference materials and managed to fully engage the kids. It would be nice, when discussing an in depth topic, for the docents to find somewhere where we can sit, e.g. A bench or stoop.

Sophie did a wonderful job and was good company. My daughter and I spent the night before our walk in an airplane crossing the Atlantic so she was taking a couple of sleep deprived zombies on a tour. It went well for us any way. I will definitely look at Context tours when I return to Paris with my wife (and try to make our schedule more flexible as well)!

This walk was unfortunately not great at all. It was neither interesting, nor fun, and not even really informative. But seeing that I had pushed for the art session with the kids, I was okay with dealing with the disappointment. We just quit it before it was due to end, since the kids just couldn't take it anymore. Additionally the docent had a cough which she said was a viral she had just recovered from. I just wish this hadn't been at the end of our trip :(
