    Best Paris tour guide
    Where do I start, Celia is an awesome tour guide. Celia was very flexible, organized, and super knowledgeable on all stops along our one full-day tour. Celia was even able to accommodate transportation to and from our airbnb. It’s hard to find honest tour guides in general, let alone ones who speak fluently in English/French/Cantonese. I highly recommend her for all your Paris needs. Our tour took place during the winter and it was awesome due to Celia’s knowledge of Paris and her recommendations. She even provided us with food recommendations after our tour and it made our stay in Paris that much better. Lastly, Celia went above and beyond when she was able to accommodate two young children and a passenger bound to a wheelchair. What an amazing human, and the best tour guide we have ever had the privilege of using for our private tour. Thank you Celia for everything and we hope to see you in the future! - David, Winnie, and Family

    Best Tour Guide
    I found Celia on Google and hired her after reading the excellent reviews. My whole family were so very please with her professionalism, knowledge and planning of the whole tour. We had a tight schedule and took a 1 day trip and informed Celia of our interests to see in Paris. Celia organized the trip with perfect timing spent of each stops and were so informative on the details of each attractions. I highly recommend Celia as a tour guide if you are to visit Paris and wanted a personal experience with a well qualified tour guide.

    Memorable Paris Private Tour
    Celia is so knowledgeable and professional. She knows the best of Paris in all aspects. Not just those common touristy attractions, but also places and restaurants that only a true Parisian knows. Celia was also very thoughtful in looking after all the detail arrangements. Definitely the best private tour that I have ever had.

    Awesome travelling with a local
    It was worth paying a little more to take a private tour around. The pace was great. We gained a better insight into Parisian life after we heard stories from our guide, Celia So. I recommend this tour to both first-time travellers or travellers who have visited Paris multiple times.

    Celia was very knowledgeable and professional
    Our guide, Celia So, was very good. She guided us to the most significant exhibits in the Louvre and gave a very good explanation about the history of and what is special about each exhibit. The tour was not rushed & we had ample time to take lots of photos.

    An excellent and knowledgeable guide
    Celia knows the place very well and guided us through Louvre with the shortest route. She told us all the stories of the major art pieces. She is very interactive so my 2 teenagers can keep focus during the tour. She also knows how to avoid the crowd. Definitely worth every penny spent.

    So knowledgeable!
    Celia was not only knowledgeable, she was gracious. She even helped me practice French! She met us promptly at our hotel and showed us how to take the Paris Metro and train to Versailles (something else we needed to learn). Her knowledge of history was amazing,, and she patiently answered all our questions. We were able to skip the lines, which were long. We went right through to the first rooms. We highly recommend her.

Took the earliest slot. Fantastic slow pace with clear explanations of Overview, History and the artistes during the creation of artworks. Celia had a left earphone with her too, all prepared for my partially impaired friend. Very well prepared.

Celia is great! A professional and friendly tour guide I’ve ever met. This is in fact my first time having a professional guide touring me in a museum - Museum Louvre.

Thank Celia, it is a great experience. I am impressed by your professional knowledge about Paris and Louvre! Without you, my wife and I would sure have got lost in Louvre and missed a lot of stories and information about all these treasures. We have learnt so much about Louvre in limited hours! Who says museum is boring? I can’t thank Celia enough. I enjoyed the time in Louvre. I miss you, Louvre. I will be back!

By the way, thank Celia for recommending the French restaurant to us! Excellent food and wine, value for money as well!

Thank you very much Derek. It is my mission to let people falling in love with Paris. A visit to Paris without visiting Louvre is like looking at a painting with sunglasses. It was my pleasure to guide you. Hope to guide you soon in Louvre again or other places of Paris. Celia SO

Celia So is well-versed in French art and French history. I would highly recommend her as a tour guide for your visit to Paris museums and to countryside trips like the Loire River Valley and Mont Saint-Michel.

We had an amazing personalized tour in Paris in Aug 2018.
From planning to the end of the trip, Celia understood our needs and preferences. She provided great recommendations for what to see/experience and what to eat.
We love hearing history and commentaries along the trip. We had many private tours in the past years, and this is one of the best we ever had.
