My name is Carine.

I am a parisienne, born and raised in Paris, with a passion for this city and its history that I love to share with a "slight" french accent. . .

I discovered, while travelling around the world, that there is no such things as meeting new friends and visiting with them, so I am really committed to offering your group more than a simple visit with a guide, an experience with a parisienne friend !

I have studied History of Art at Ecole du Louvre so you will be visiting with a parisienne friend crazy about museums and history of Paris.

Your tastes matter a lot and I will always try to tailor the visits to your interests and that the visits are fun and participative.

Describing my personality is not easy so I just can say that I was very touched by this one comment I received :
"if more art historians were as knowledgeable, enthusiastic and engaging as Carine, there would be many more art lovers in the world".

See you soon in Paris to visit together the most beautiful museums and become art lovers if you are not already.

I have been a french official guide (guide conférencier) since 2018.
I graduated in Art History from Ecole du Louvre, a University attached to the museum, giving me a good knowledge of occidental art from Antiquity to Modern Times.

As a licensed guide, I have no restrictions for guiding.
At Versailles, I am accredited for the small appartments.

I am not accredited to be a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Let's discover together the incredible museum of Louvre. I consider it a bit like second home as I did my studies of History of Art there at Ecole du Louvre and I am happy to share the secrets of the place and collections.

We will start the visit in the most ancient part and discover together the 800 years of history of the palace of Louvre, former residence of French kings.

At same time, we will enjoy the palace, looking at the beautiful rooms and ceilings (throne room, moat, gallery of Apollo, Marly courtyards, . . . ) and discover the most interesting masterpieces and understand what make them so special(Mona Lisa, Venus of Milo, Winged Victory of Samothrace, Michelangelo's Slaves, the Egyptian Sphinx, and many more that will surprise you . . . )

This will always be fun and informative thanks to many anecdotes, collected over years.

Of course, the program is fully adjustable depending on your to your tastes and we can absolutely focus on Egyptian or Mesopotamian Art, French, Flemish or Italian School.
