has anyone ever used the free service of a city greeter in Paris? i see that there are other cities across the world that have this program as well. According to the website, you can sign up for a greeter a few weeks before your trip. People who live in Paris volunteer to do this, and take time out of their day to show you around (your choice of location) for a couple of hours. Almost sounds too good to be true....does anyone have experience with this? thanks
