Having visited Paris on a number of occasions, I thought I'd seen all there was to see in Montmartre, but Allison showed me sights and told me stories that I'd never heard before. I spent a very enjoyable and informative couple of hours in her company.

I was disappointed by the fact that the presentation was so impersonal. While it was well done from a audtio-visual aspect I wanted to be able to interact with real people, to ask questions on Calvados, origins, apple types, how it was made and so on. Instead there was this standard simple presentation with strong PR overtones. Even in the tasting room staff pured a sample then moved away and it was not easy to get the information I wanted. By the last sample one staff member was beginning to warm to the task but really I had hoped to see the actual production process, not just a static dispaly of some equipment and a film on the orchards etc. I still bought a bottle because it is rather good Calvados.Perhpas I was expecting too much. I enjoyed the tasting.

This hassle-free tour with private transportation ended up being a Godsend with the transportation strike and train schedules to Versailles being seriously "iffy." Who knows if we'd even made it there without Gustavo picking us up in his comfortable van? Once there, skipping the enormous line also proved worth the extra penny as Paris and sites like Versailles are growing in tourist numbers. Gustavo was interesting, polite and willing to answer all questions related to history, French culture and attitudes. He even set up a private tour of the apartments per our request. It's a long day, but Gustavo didn't overwhelm us with information overload and by the end of the tour, we felt we had made a new friend.

My walk was led by Camila - she is very passionate and has deep knowledge about the history of the city. During the walk, she shared several anecdotes with me about the city, told me interesting facts about the place and we had good question and answer rounds. I would recommend this trip if you want to appreciate your visit to the city more !
