The services and insights you provided exceeded my expectations and provided the foundation of research I was hoping for. Thanks so much for everything you did for me&#8211;and for overextending to ensure I gained as much benefit as possible. Rachel: I will be recommending you and your team to anyone I know who plans a trip to Paris. I will always cherish the memories of the hours we spent together.<\/p><p><strong>George Hirthler (2011)<\/strong><\/p><hr class=\"shortcode hr red\" style=\"width:50;\" \/><p>With Rachel, we ate our way around Paris, starting in\u00a0Les Halles, \u2018the belly of Paris\u2019, on the &#8220;Foodie Tour&#8221;. The tour incorporated a stop at the beautiful church\u00a0St. Eustache, to see the mural expressing the historic exodus of the food sellers from this area of Paris. Our food experience continued with chocolate, eclair, bread, wine, tea, cheese and many other tasty stops along the way. Snacking your way around Paris with an experienced guide is definitely the way to go!\u00a0 We hope to be back and enjoy more of this fabulous city with our friends at French Links!<\/p><p><strong>Angela Peterman (2014)<\/strong><\/p><hr class=\"shortcode hr red\" style=\"width:50;\" \/><p>Rachel, fantastic trip! Your guides and driver were simply outstanding. We had an amazing time. Thank you to you and your team for making our trip in Tuscany so memorable. We look forward to doing it again with your organization soon.<\/p><p><strong>Steve Lister<\/strong><\/p><hr class=\"shortcode hr red\" style=\"width:50;\" \/><p>Thank you for all of your help with our trip to Paris.

Rachel, with French Links Tours, expertly handled everything for us. We visited Normandy, the Loire Valley, and Paris. Our accommodations, transportation, and meals were just what we asked for. All of our guides were very knowledgable and personable. We especially enjoyed our time with Steve in Normandy and the Loire Valley. All of this made our trip hassle free, educational, and enjoyable. This service made all the difference for us in our trip.<\/p><p><strong>Todd and Jennifer, Provo, Utah, United States<\/strong><\/p><hr class=\"shortcode hr red\" style=\"width:50;\" \/><p>Our family recently took a full day tour in Paris with French Links Tours. Thank you for the fabulous time! Rachel was knowledgable, energetic and responsive to our every need. Rachel took time in advance to identify our individual interests and designed a tour tailored specifically for us. Our tour not only covered all of the major sites, but Rachel also took us to out of the way markets and cafes that enabled us to experience the richness of French life and culture. Rachel has a deep knowledge of French history, literature, politics, culture and geography that she ably emparted on a variety of levels to both the children and adults in our party. We learned and experienced more <span data-term=\"goog_1865793577\">in one day<\/span> than we have encountered in week long trips.
