How do the guided tours work ?
Reservations and tour schedule
1.
Customized tours are designed entirely around your interests, your pace, and the type of experience you are looking for. You can choose the themes, museums, or neighborhoods you wish to explore.
2.
Each itinerary is carefully prepared in advance, with a clear meeting point and schedule agreed upon together. The content is adapted to your profile, whether you are travelling solo, as a couple, with family, or in a small group.
3.
Tickets for museums or monuments are generally not included in the tour price and may need to be purchased separately. In some cases, I can take care of the booking for you, especially when advance reservations are required or when it helps ensure access at the scheduled time. All practical details are arranged beforehand so that you can enjoy a smooth and stress-free experience.

Before your visit, you will receive all necessary information, including meeting details and any logistical recommendations, to ensure everything runs smoothly.

On the day of the tour, we meet at the agreed location. The visit begins immediately, guided throughout with clear explanations and a personalized approach. Depending on the venue, audiophones may be provided.

At the end of the experience, you are welcome to ask questions and exchange further insights. Your feedback is always valued and helps refine future experiences.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can you offer me an off-catalogue tour ?
It's possible, but we need to discuss it. Either I create it for you and it will be in the catalog, or I can't and I'll put you in touch with my fellow tour guides.
Can a shared tour be made into a private tour ?
It's perfectly possible ! The shared tour is certainly presented in the "private tours" section of the website, but if this is not the case or if you would like more information, please do not hesitate to contact me directly by telephone, via the form or my e-mail address helene@marbretpastel.com.
How far in advance of my visit should I make a reservation ?
Private tours should be booked as early as possible. Guides must reserve speaking rights with museums or monuments, and this can take time (sometimes 1 month in advance!). For shared tours, if space is available, you can register up to 2 hours before the tour.
Are shared tours suitable for children ?
Shared tours are for adults. However, children aged 12 and over with an aptitude for the site or the theme of the tour are welcome to join in. Please note that it is necessary to purchase a place for the guided tour, as well as admission for the child.
Who can attend a shared tour ?
All ages are welcome for a shared visit, but I'd advise you to invite children over 8, or even over 10, so that they can enjoy the visit. Please note that you'll need to buy a ticket for the guided tour, as well as a museum entrance ticket for all the children (which is sometimes free).
Is it suitable for people with disabilities ?
Private tours are accessible to people with disabilities. However, depending on your disability and the location of the tour, it's best to inform me in advance so that I can make the best possible logistical arrangements. Shared tours are not always suitable, depending on your disability and the location. I am available to discuss your requirements and do my utmost to adapt.
