Hello there! My name is Anne. Born and bred in Burgundy, I moved to Paris to attend university and never left again! I settled "Rive Gauche" (Left Bank of the Seine river) 25 years ago and after a career as a financial analyst for large international companies, I resumed my studies in History of Art at Paris' famous Ecole du Louvre. After graduating in 2014, I decided to become a private tour guide to share with international visitors my passion for Parisian culture, art and history. Just like Paris welcomed me all these years ago, I will welcome you to Paris as I know it: the City of Light but so much more indeed! Whether you're a first-timer or a regular visitor, I will take you off the beaten tracks and unveil the secrets of Paris' major and lesser-known landmarks. Together, we will stroll the streets just like a group of friends and I will be your very own guide as my tours are exclusively private. Each tour will be tailor-made to match your personal interests, at your own pace and with time to stand and stare. Just tell me what your idea of a dream trip is and I will make it happen! I offer half-day and full day tours which consist of cultural visits, relaxing walks and gourmet breaks in trendy places. In addition to the numerous must-sees, I will introduce you to my favorite hidden spots and we will wander Paris' secret nooks and crannies. Your tour will start and end wherever you fancy: your hotel, a café… Just let me know and I will be there! We will get around by foot and public transports as they are ideal for discovering Paris without getting stuck in traffic jams! *** IMPORTANT NOTICE: please make sure you double-check my availability calendar before sending me a request for tours less than 2 months away. If I am down as unavailable, my calendar will already be set which means I will not be able to offer you a tour. However, for tours more than 2 months away, I might have some flexibility. -BA in History of Arts from the Ecole du Louvre -BA in Oriental Languages and Civilizations I specialize in city walking tours (by foot or public transport) so I CANNOT offer: - Tours outside of Paris (Versailles, Giverny, Normandy). - Tours with a driver. - Airport pick-up. - Catacombes tours

My 10 year old granddaughter and I had an absolutely incredible day in Paris with Anne C We took the Eurostar from London to Paris and met Anne at Gare de Nord and began our day by exploring Montmartre.

Anne is delightful! My husband and I both loved our tour of the Latin Quarter with Anne. She showed us the lifestyle of the current times and shared many interesting facts of the past. We both learned a lot about the Latin Quarter and had lots of fun. She customized the tour just for us and showed us the areas and sights we really wanted to see.
