Alvene's Paris Arrival Orientation Service

$85.00

Alvene is a loyal Petite Paris B&B host who over the years has formed some of the strongest and beautiful relationships with his guests that I have ever seen. This is an attribute to his absolute kindness, sincerity, and most gracious hospitality. A true gentleman and gentle soul by nature he has assisted so many Petite guests over the years to navigate the city confidently. So many, especially solo women guests have achieve a sense of self empowered-ness conquering the city alone after having Alvene ‘show them the ropes’ even for just a few hours. It is something he finds truly inspiring because he is always in awe of guests who bravely take themselves to Paris to begin with, even if they are nervous and he loves nothing more than to help you get a sense of the city with confidence. So he is now offering to all Petite Paris guests, not only those staying in his Paris home, a Meet & Greet Arrival Assistance service to any first time travellers to Paris who may be nervous about navigating the city alone.

In this orientation Alvene will happily:

  • Meet you at your Petite Paris B&B on the date of your arrival at a time that suits you after settling into your home.

  • Walking you to the closest Metro and Bus stops and showing you how to buy tickets and use the metro and bus system, in person he will guide you to ‘do it yourself’.

  • How to use the Velib bikes to enjoy bike riding in the city. With Safety hints and tips about Paris traffic. And the often found quirks of the bikes - what to look for before you jump on a bike, regular vs electric - batteries not charged etc (if you want a bike guide or Tour, Alvene offers this as a separate service too - you can select this at checkout as an add-on if you wish).

  • Take you to a local cafe near your Petite B&B for a friendly chat and get-to-know one another where he will share some basics of ordering drinks and food at a Parisian Cafe or restaurant.

  • He will walk around the surrounding streets of your B&B and neighbourhood and point out all that you need and show you how to use - public toilets if needed, water fountains to replenish your water bottles rather than have to buy bottles.

  • He will point out post office, chemists etc and will happily assist you to post or purchase any essential items or medicines you need for your stay. All of this will come with so much insight about the French culture and how shops and systems work, some language essentials and French etiquette know-how.

  • Offer you general pointers and tips, do’s and don’t to keep you efficient and safe in the city.

  • Any other specific assistance you many need or request that you feel you will need to know in the coming days when you are alone in the city.

  • Genuine kindness and friendship

  • Someone to text and communicate and keep in touch with in the city should you have any questions or get stuck. For an urgencies even if Alvene cannot get to you, he will help to find or suggest a solution for you.
