Alvins Paris Arrival Orientation Service

Paris Orientation Service with Alvin $350 AUD — 3 Hours | $650 AUD — Full Day (Morning to Evening)

Arriving in Paris and feeling a little nervous about navigating it alone? Alvin will sort you out. As one of Petite Paris's most treasured hosts, Alvin has spent years quietly transforming anxious arrivals into confident, independent city explorers. Solo women in particular leave his company feeling like they own the city. That's just who he is.

Your service includes:

• Meeting you at your Petite Paris home at a time that suits you

• A hands-on metro and bus orientation — tickets, tapping, navigating, all of it

• A Vélib bike system introduction including safety tips for Paris traffic

• A local café stop with a proper introduction to ordering like a Parisian

• A neighbourhood walk covering everything you'll actually need — toilets, water fountains, chemists, post office

• French cultural insights, language essentials and etiquette woven throughout

• His personal do's and don'ts for staying safe and relaxed in the city

• And beyond the service — a friendly local contact in your corner for the rest of your stay

The Full Day Option adds lunch and an optional dinner stop, monuments, metros and an organic flow through the city with no set agenda.
