Fun with Fay's walking tour of the Latin Quarter!
For those looking for a personalized tour in Paris, look no further than a tour with Paris With Fay. I was lucky to have enjoyed the Latin Quarter tour with Fay as our tour guide. Fay clearly enjoys sharing her knowledge of the history and culture of Paris. I learned about historic sites where Roman gladiators competed all the way to where newer transplants to Paris offer delicacies from around the world. Fay has a great personality and communicates easily with those of us who speak English. I would highly recommend Fay for any tour of Paris she does. I look forward to taking another look at Paris through her eyes and experience. She is a delight! ❤️
Response from the operator: Hi Christopher! Thank you so much for your review! I love this area of the Latin Quarter and am glad I could show it to you. Please let me know when you come back to Paris, I will show you another neighborhood with pleasure!

Great time in Paris:)
I booked a custom tour with Fay. She was amazing and showed us beautiful places. She also recommended great restaurants. I would definitely tour with her again. She was very kind and helpful.
Response from the operator: It was a pleasure to meet you Alisson! I am glad you liked the tour. See you soon in Paris!

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Latin Quarter Off the Beaten Track: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.
How much does Latin Quarter Off the Beaten Track cost?
+
Prices start at $58 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Paris usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Latin Quarter Off the Beaten Track take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Paris is not rushed.
Is Latin Quarter Off the Beaten Track worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Latin Quarter Off the Beaten Track?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Latin Quarter Off the Beaten Track suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Latin Quarter Off the Beaten Track?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Paris can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Paris and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Latin Quarter Off the Beaten Track start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Paris within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Paris?
+
Paris rewards travelers who book ahead. The headline museums sell timed entry weeks out, the best food walks cap at eight people, and the Seine cruises that are worth doing are the ones that leave after sunset. Everything below is scored by the Outty Ranking so you can tell a genuine local favorite from a coach-tour filler in a single glance. On Outty we rank every Paris experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX, Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Paris?
+
April to June and September to October, when queues thin out and terraces stay open late. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Paris?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
