I booked a photoshoot through Klook and had a great experience! The photographer was very accommodating and professional. He even assisted me to change outfits at a nearby coffee shop, which I really appreciated. The photos turned out nice, and I didn’t feel rushed at all. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a stress-free photoshoot experience.

Recommended for those who bring children to Paris but don't know where to spend time. You can stay there for a whole day. There are animals and birds in the park, and it is convenient and fast to buy tickets!

Highly recommended to book this package to capture the special moments while in Paris. We had an amazing experience with George(Giorgi) today. He is very professional and patient with us. He shared many ideas how to pose in front of camera. We will make another appointment with George again when we visit Paris. Merci beaucoup! 😃

A hidden gem in Paris! Musée de l'Orangerie is small but breathtaking—home to Monet’s iconic *Water Lilies* displayed in two oval rooms designed just for them. Standing in those serene, light-filled spaces feels like stepping into the paintings themselves. The lower level’s Impressionist collection (Renoir, Cézanne, Matisse) is equally impressive. What I loved: No crowds (unlike the Louvre!), intimate setting, and the way natural light enhances the art. Spent an hour here but could’ve lingered all day. Perfect for art lovers short on time.
