We had to be at the office 15 minutes earlier. We followed our quide, we skipped the lines and then we went directly to the second floor with the elevator. The maximum persons in the elevator were 52, so we were all together since our group was up to 15 persons. The guide was amazing, he was smiling, he was friendly, he showed us the Paris, he told us about the history and he gave us many information (I think he is from Argentina and he speaks Spanish too) We spent us much time as we want on the tour.

tour ben organizzato. quando ci siamo recati in ufficio per il ritiro dei biglietti, ci hanno proposto la guida in italiano (anziché quella in inglese precedentemente selezionata). abbiamo accettato la proposta; la ns. guida, la sig.ra Salima, oltre ad essere estremamente preparata è stata gentilissima e molto cortese.
