How Do We Find Your Office?
Are reservations needed for Classic Walks?
Yes, reservations are required for all walking tours. This is a new policy in 2012 as we are improving all of our walking tours! We have implemented a capacity to all tours to ensure the best private and personal experience for our guests. Why walk with groups of 20+ people and struggle to hear your guide speak? Unlike our competitors, we ensure a small group for all tours so book in now (reservations can be made here)!
How can I pay for a tour with Classic Walks?
We accept either cash (Euros only please) or pre-paid vouchers from our website at the time of the tour. Sorry, no credit cards, travelers checks or other currencies please.
If I make a reservation via the Classic Walks website, must I come on the day I requested?
Guests with pre-paid reservations via our website for the The Classic Walk, The Da Vinci Code Walk, The World War II Walk, The French Revolution Walk, The Montmartre Walk and The Latin Quarter Walk may come on any day they like. Guests with pre-paid reservations for The Wine Tasting Experience and The D-Day Beaches Day Trip must come on the day for which they reserved.
How do I know who the guide is?
All Classic Walks guides will be wearing a Classic Walks shirt or visibly holding our brochures for you to see.

The Classic Walk: 3.5 hours
The Da Vinci Code, World War II, Montmartre, French Revolution and Latin Quarter Walks: 2 hours

Highlight of our trip
Just wanted to extend a HUGE thank you for all the kindness that I received from you & your office staff while I was recently in Paris.
I came to the office on Saturday morning, very stressed, and frustrated due to the problems I was having in Paris with my hotel (Citea) and with payment. It was so comforting and nice to find such wonderful caring people. You definitely helped in making me feel better.
I subsequently returned on Sunday and took the classic walking tour, which was amazing, and a highlight of my trip. Again, words cannot express the positive impact you and your office made on me. I really appreciate finding such a fabulous and caring group.
