I want to say these were walking tours, but that can't be correct. My wife would never care for this stuff, so I'll drop her off at Lafayette Galleries next time and go on my own. Bring your wallet. Man, Paris is expensive. I saw 1 litre mugs of Stella for 30 Euros ($39). French beer SUCKED and was crazy expensive. Our "average" quality lunch for two at a Chinese place with two TingTaos was 57 Euros.

Where the heck did you eat? There were tons of cheap places in Quartier Latin (I'm talking 3 course meals for like 13 Euros). These were dinner prices.
Trust me, Paris can be done on a budget.
