Guide #59824
Hello and welcome! My name is Rayan, and I’m a private guide based in Paris. If this is your first time visiting Paris, you’re in the right place. Choosing the right guide can truly change your experience, especially in a city as rich, beautiful, and sometimes overwhelming as Paris. My goal is to help you see the highlights, understand the history, and enjoy the city in a relaxed, comfortable, and well-organized way, without stress and without rushing. I’ve been working in the tourism industry for more than ten years. I began my guiding career in the south of France before focusing my expertise on Paris, where I now specialize in private tours for first-time visitors, families, couples, and travelers who want to make the most of their time. I’ve guided many international travelers and understand exactly what first-time visitors are looking for: clear explanations, good pacing, flexibility, and a friendly guide who makes everything easy. My tours focus on the must-see sights of Paris as well as beautiful viewpoints, charming neighborhoods, and fascinating stories that bring the city to life. Rather than overwhelming you with dates and facts, I explain history in a simple, engaging way, so everything makes sense and stays memorable. Many guests tell me it feels like exploring Paris with a knowledgeable local friend. I speak fluent English and French, ensuring smooth communication and a comfortable experience throughout your tour. Each tour is personalized to your interests, energy level, and schedule, whether you want a classic highlights tour, a relaxed introduction to the city, or a scenic day trip outside Paris. I also offer private excursions such as: • Versailles (half day) • Normandy D-Day Landing Beaches • Normandy Highlights • Mont Saint-Michel • Champagne region • Loire Valley Castles • Giverny, Claude Monet’s home and gardens If you’re looking for a professional, friendly, and experienced guide who truly cares about your experience, I’d be delighted to show you Paris. I look forward to welcoming you and helping you create unforgettable memories in France.

Cannot say enough about how great Rayan was on our tour to Giverny! We were picked up at our accomodation on time (he was actaully a bit early and kept us informed of his arrival). During the drive out of Paris, he told us a lot about the sights, and the history of the city. At Monet's home, he was very helpful and solicitous of the mobility challenged member of our...
Our full-day, eight-hour tour of Normandy with Rayan was the absolute highlight of our trip. He spent the entire day guiding our group of six—ourselves and two couples who are our closest friends—and kept us thoroughly comfortable, engaged, and entertained from start to finish. Rayan’s polite, energetic personality perfectly balanced the deep solemnity of the region with...

An unforgettable Paris experience thanks to Ryan. We recently returned from a family vacation in Paris and the absolute highlight was our time with Ryan.

His personality made the day incredibly fun, and...
