Wine of the Month

J. J. Vincent Pouilly-Fuissé Marie-Antoinette, 2008

The cooler temperatures of September hit me like a wine wake-up call. When you find yourself reaching for sweaters, it is a cue to start reaching for different wines as well.

Special Paris Tour by Paris Herself!

Recently we met up with a lovely lady who offers tours to Paris that she will design around you and your needs. And her name is Paris—no, we aren't kidding! A six-year resident of the City of Light who now divides her time between there and Key West, Paris offers extremely reasonable rates (beginning at $1,500) on tours to Paris, and she is a docent at Notre Dame, so she can take you behind the scenes. That's very special indeed.

She has designed some tours especially for us (which you can customize of course) that revolve around a few of the incredible women who've made Paris their home throughout history. You’ll enjoy tours with themes such as the queen, the empresses’ day, ladies of the court and famous lovers in Paris—all rounded off with a good dose of the flea markets and shopping (from vintage to haute couture), as well as tea, macaroons and chocolates. Paris will treat you and your party to lunch, and by the end of just a few days, you'll consider her a friend. If you'd like to have Paris help make Paris a reality, simply send us an email at info@girlsguidetoparis.com, and we'll put you in touch with her.

Shhh . . .

We are unveiling our new and improved site next month, which will have an easier-to-use Book It page solving all of your hotel and touring needs, and we hope you'll find it simpler to navigate and even more fun to visit! Also, we'll be announcing a new membership opportunity that will give you huge savings on hotels, tours and GG2P merchandise. Don't worry—we'll send you an announcement when it goes live.
