Don't visit Paris without Montmartre

Bonjour! I am your private guide in Paris and Versailles. I specialise in customised, private tours for travellers who value authentic experiences and storytelling over ticking off landmarks. With over 15 years of experience, I design itineraries that focus on slow-paced exploration, uncovering the history, art, and hidden corners of Paris and Versailles at a comfortable rhythm. Originally from the Netherlands, I moved to Paris after completing a Bachelor degree in Tourism and Leisure Management and a Master’s degree in Political Science. What began as a short stay quickly became permanent — I fell in love with the city, its culture, and its neighbourhoods. I combined this passion with formal training and earned my official French tour guide licence, giving skip-the-line access to museums and monuments. Whether you want cultural walking tours, skip-the-line museum visits, family-friendly experiences, or hidden gems, I create a personalised, engaging journey that is immersive, memorable, and truly yours. Send me a message or book one of the existing tours directly via the tour pages! NEW in 2026: - First time Paris tour by car - Half day Versailles by car - VIP behind the scènes Versailles with a visit to the private apartments of Louis XV and XVI. Also write me for full day versions or requests for groups over 6 persons.
