Alexander was an excellent instructor/guide for this tour. He met with me first to discover what background my photography experience stemmed from, and what I hoped to accomplish with the tour and customized it from there. When I discovered I'd left my tripod plate in my hotel he had one to loan me, and saved the night, literally!! He was professional, entirely knowledgable, and it was well worth the money and time. I think if you are looking to clinch "that one shot" while you're visiting Paris, booking this tour with this group is the way to ensure that happens. I will, without hesitation, refer any of my other friends travelling to Paris to this tour and Alexander and his colleagues. Thanks again Alex for a great photography experience- I came away from this feeling not only had I learned something, but also to be coming home with images I am proud of. *****HIGHLY RECOMMEND**
