John Baptiste could not have been more charming and helpful. He picked us up at our apartment and dropped us off us off where we requested. He was full of information and made our trip very memorable. I would recommend to anyone. Thank you.

This was my 10 year old granddaughter’s first trip to Paris and what a fun way this was to give her an initial overview of lots of the main sights, and also for us all to acquaint ourselves with the many different areas of the city and their individuality. Jean-Baptiste was a wonderful guide, we learnt lots of details along the way that we would never have known about otherwise. If you’re considering booking one of these tours, don’t hesitate! I highly recommend
This was the highlight of our trip! JB is absolutely so knowledgeable and sweet and we had a wonderful day with me and my daughter. We got to see all the major attractions in the 3-hour tour. I would definitely recommend this to anybody. He allowed us to get out of the car, get some pictures, stop and get treats, whatever we wanted. JB is his own company and is very reliable.
Picked up from our hotel Jean Pierre was an excellent host and very knowledgeable Highly recommend well worth it
highlight of my 14 year old’s birthday trip. Loved it!
Jean Pierre and his classic Citroën CV2 is a delightful host. He’s knowledgeable, friendly and very accommodating. He handles the streets of Paris with grace and ease. His classic car with open top is eye catching and was a big hit when we sent photos back home. Can highly recommend this tour for a first day overview of the city.
Jean-Baptiste was amazing!!! He was extremely knowledgeable of all the streets in Paris and very knowledgeable on the history of buildings in Paris. He was a great communicator and extremely friendly!!! His 2CV was immaculate and well maintained! The vehicle looked like it just rolled off the showroom floor. If you were thinking of doing this type of adventure, you need to book it with Jean-Baptiste!!
Wonderful tour that was entertaining and informative. J-B is so relaxed and adjusted the journey according our our knowledge and experiences in the city. Highlight was multiple turns around the arc de triomphe
Very knowledgeable and friendly, fantastic way to see the sights of Paris with great photo opportunities
A brilliant experience. Jean Baptiste was great, showing us all the main sites and entertaining us with his stories and knowledge of Paris. Highly recommended! Merci beaucoup Jean-Baptiste.
A dreamy ride in a dreamy convertible with JB! He was very knowledgeable, kind, and made this tour very special! Anyone that wants to see Paris in its splendor at night should take this tour! 100% recommended
Incredible!! This was our favorite tour!!! I highly recommend it. We went at 9:00 in the evening and it was perfect!
Jean Batiste was just amazing and the car is beautiful! Such a fantastic experience! Highly recommended!
JB is a wonderful guide. Very knowledgeable. Communicative even prior to the booking. He helped us make the most of our 15 hour Paris layover. I recommend booking with JB
This was the perfect way to start our trip to Paris! JB picked us up at our apartment and took us all around the city. I can’t recommend this car tour enough!!
We really enjoyed this. JB was a fantastic host and the car was a lot of fun. We saw all the sights we wanted to and he adapted the route based on what we'd already seen. We did a lot on our trip and this was definitely one of the very best activities. I would highly recommend. We toured at night, which was a fantastic way to explore. Only wish we hadn't done it on our last night, as it gave us many more ideas on where to visit for a night out!
Tour was great. Car is awesome. Recommend
Súper experience! Really enjoyed it. You get to see a 100 times more then when you book a hop on hop of bus. Experienced driver, great communication.
J.B. Did an awesome job! It was a blessing for us that he knew English. He was very knowledgeable about about Paris and its history. He took us to all the big sights. Would recommend him to everyone! Loved his CV-2 Convertible!
Wonderful tour! JB was very knowledgeable and took us to all the great places to visit. We had a wonderful trip.
JB did a wonderful job showing us Paris- we loved driving the streets with someone who wanted to show us his city. He did a great job taking and staging pictures. He was easy to reach in WhatsApp and flexible with pick up and drop off changes. Fun way to see Paris!
JB was a wonderful guide and driver! The car was top notch vintage cute, and we learned a lot of history along the route. Seeing the icons of Paris like the Eiffel Tower and L’Arc de Triomphe in the iconic 2CV was an experience of a lifetime!
JB’s tour was excellent. He was very communicative and made the tour very easy to plan from abroad, including providing champagne and macarons. The logistics were seamless the day of the tour and he provided great historical knowledge of the city during the tour. Plus answering all of our specific questions and providing restaurant recommendations. I would highly recommend this business!
A fantastic private sightseeing of Paris with route of choice. Friendly and professional guiding by J-B and strategic photo-stops! All in the classic 2CV.
Amazing experience in the perfect little Citroen! Sunset , amazing weather ,and the perfect Paris evening in an hour.
Jean -Baptiste is a great advocate for his city. Very knowledgeable and generous with the information. A fantastic, comfortable tour with a difference . Much appreciated the pick up options. Thank you
We had the absolute pleasure of spending the day exploring Paris with our wonderful guide in his iconic red Citroën 2CV, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we met, RJ was warm, friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about his city. His insights into Parisian history, culture, architecture, and hidden gems brought the city to life in a way that simply isn’t possible from a guidebook. Every stop felt thoughtfully chosen, and he was more than happy to tailor the experience to our interests. The red Citroën itself was a delight — charming, quintessentially French, and guaranteed to turn heads wherever we went. It added an extra layer of magic and authenticity to the experience, making us feel as though we’d stepped into a classic Parisian film. What truly set this tour apart was our guide’s personality. His enthusiasm was infectious, his stories fascinating, and his attention to detail impeccable. He made us feel completely at ease and ensured we saw both the famous landmarks and the lesser-known corners of Paris that many visitors miss. If you’re visiting Paris and want an unforgettable, unique, and thoroughly enjoyable experience, I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Five stars simply don’t seem enough. Merci for such a fantastic day and memories that will last a lifetime
Jean-Baptiste was great. His car was awesome. It turned a lot of heads driving around. Unfortunately we did too much driving and not enough stopping to get to see things up close. We covered a lot of ground and traffic slowed things down. We hit the highlights but mostly from the car. If you want to "see" a lot of things in a short period of time this works. Else, you may want to get around yourself and take more time to visit things.
We had an excellent time with Jean Baptiste, who has been doing this tour for many years so knows his way around the crazy Paris streets. He totally customized the tour to accommodate out pick up and drop off spots. He even went a bit overtime with a smile on his face. This is by far the BEST WAY to see Paris!
Our tour with JB was excellent. He was very informative about the city of Paris. JB took us to all the important landmarks for our 2 hour tour. His automobile made the trip even better . Driving around France in an older model Citroen was enjoyable.
Traveling around Paris in a C2V with a retractable roof... wonderful! Having an engaging guide like Jon-Batist, who is a walking Wikipedia for everything Paris, makes it really enjoyable. He knew exactly the best spots to get great pictures... not just the primo spot for the Eiffel Tower sparkling at night. We thoroughly enjoyed this 2 hour tour.
We had the best time touring Paris with JB in his awesome Citroen 2CV! It was a beautiful day and driving around the city for two hours with the top down was a delight, as was JB himself. He was friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating, and kind. It was the perfect way to kick off our week in Paris. We have such a better sense of the layout of the city as well as the history behind both the famous monuments as well as the hidden gems. We cannot recommend JB and this tour enough! Definitely one of the best experiences we’ve had while traveling. Thanks, JB, for everything!
What an absolutely unforgettable experience JB gave us! From the day I contacted him he was professional, kind and wonderfully communicative. It was my Niece's 12th birthday so JB picked us up at our hotel for an evening tour of Paris. When he arrived he had balloons attached to his (immaculate) 2CV and a box of Macarons for her. JB was so informative and gave us an in depth tour of Paris, ending at 9pm at the Eiffel Tower just in time to see it sparkle. I forgot my bag in his car, so message him and he returned straight to the hotel that evening to get it back to me. I’d say look no further if you want a unique, safe, memorable experience of Paris. JB is your person.
Such a truly unique and personal way to travel to different parts of the city while viewing iconic landmarks. JB was friendly and very information rich.
We had an exceptional experience in Paris thanks to Jean-Baptiste’s tour. The tour is very well organized, as Jean-Baptiste picks you up in his Deux Chevaux at a prearranged meeting point and takes you to all of Paris’s beautiful major sights, as well as the small charming side streets in between. Jean-Baptiste is also a very friendly guide who knows the city inside out and shared lots of interesting facts. The tour is perfect for people just discovering Paris, but also great fun for those who already know the city a bit better. I highly recommend this tour.
An excellent start to our Paris adventure. JB was friendly, flexible and extremely knowledgeable. Being new comers to Paris we relied on his suggestions and spent 2 hours exploring the sights and districts of Paris. Thank you JB for a fantastic intro to your city.
JB could not have been more polite, professional and helpful, what a great guy and great tour. Definitely to be repeated when we are in Paris. Highly recommended.
Super evening spent with J-B - my teenage daughter loved the experience, lots of fun facts and interesting stories about the sights. As well as suggestions for the rest of our trip. Would highly recommend and is "very french"!!
Outstanding experience. Communication could not have been better what a very decent chap. Highly recommended and we will contact again next time in Paris.
Our first trip to Paris! This was our very first tour to kick off our stay! JB was wonderful. He is helpful and very knowledgeable. We enjoyed riding around the city for two hours in his vintage car.
We had a 1.5 hour tour with JB and he’s amazing 2CV, the car and commentary was amazing and a really special and authentic way to see Paris, we stopped at the Eiffel Tower right on 9-00am to see the lights and have some amazing photos and memories. HIGHLY RECOMMEND ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
JB was a great tour guide with loads of knowledge of Paris… his great little car turned heads everywhere we went! Has to be one of the best ways to see Paris… Thank you for your local knowledge of cafes where he stopped to let us buy some filled baguettes for lunch- they were delicious! Thanks JB, would recommend him to everyone who wants a tour of the iconic landmarks with very good knowledge of all things Paris!
Jean-Baptiste was the best driver and tour guide we have had in Paris. I would recommend his 2CV Tour. We will do it again next time we are in Paris.
J-B does a fantastic job navigating around Paris and sharing history and culture. As a native Parisian, he has a vast knowledge of the ins and outs of the city. He is also very friendly and warm. Don't hesitate to book this excursion with J-B!
My kids loved this! My son is 21 and my daughter is 13. They are traveling together and they learned so much from this experience!
It’s a great way to familiarize yourself with Paris and learn some French history. JP is a wonderful tour guide!
Jean-Baptiste was great, and it was loads of fun to ride in his Citroen with the open roof. We could pop up at stop lights and take photos. We saw parts of Paris rich in history and culture that we would not have seen otherwise as well as some of the great monuments. JB was very knowledgeable as well as personable and flexible. He told us that each tour was different depending on the pick-up spot and traffic pattern.
Personal and intimate glimpses of Parisienne sites accompanied by an experienced guide. Jean has an incredible knowledge of the interplay of architecture, history and cultural influences that make Paris a favorite destination. Ask a question...get the answer. Can we stop to get a better picture? Of course! Do we have time to go there? He will give options based on time and traffic. Will he be recommended? Without question!
We did a three hour morning tour of Paris with JB in his blue Citroen. JB was punctual, attentive and flexible. He was very knowledgeable about the places that we visited and very good company. We really enjoyed our tour of Paris with JB. We heartily recommend this tour.
We loved this evening ride with Jean Baptiste. He was a very safe driver and had some great information about the beautiful city to share with us. Highly recommend taking this ride through Paris in the evening
