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. Qualifications: Official Licensed and Certified Tour Guide for France (Ministry of Culture and Tourism) Member of the National Association of Licensed Tour Guides in France (FNGIC) Master’s Degree in Political Science International Relations (University of Amsterdam) Bachelor of Arts in Tourism and Leisure Management (NHTV University of Applied Sciences, Breda) PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor

We had a fantastic tour with Susanne in the Montmarte district in Paris. Susanne was very knowledgeable in the area and the artists who spent time there. She exposed us to paintings and their origin stories and took us through time. Definitely recommend taking her tour.
Thank you for a lovely tour of Montmartre. It was a pleasure meeting you and your knowledge of the area made it such a memorable day. Best, Kathleen
Susanne was fantastic! Highly recommend! She had lots of fun facts/stories to share about Montmartre. The walk was a good pace for everyone (including an 11-year-old). She had a keen eye to warn us about pick-pocketers around Sacre Cour. And gave an amazing recommendation for lunch at a creperie at the end of the tour.
Suzanne provided my husband, our 12 year old grandson, and me two tours on our recent trip to Paris: the Louvre and Montmartre. Both were exceptional. Suzanne is knowledgeable, high-energy, solicitous, and thoroughly professional. She led us through the crowded Louvre efficiently: we saw several of the "biggies" and several other notable works as well. With each, her narrative was interesting and thorough. On the Montmartre tour she led us through the basilica, the artists' square, the old section of town. She shared stories and insights about this unique part of Paris. We give Suzanne highest marks. marymn
A very enjoyable walking tour of Montmartre. Susanne was professional, informative and very accomodating. We very much enjoyed our afternoon with her as she led us on our exploration of Montmartre.
We had a great tour of Montmartre with Susanne. She was very knowledgeable on a large variety of topics and her great presentation made her tour both informative and entertaining. By the end of our tour, we felt we had a very good sense of the spirit Montmartre, past and present. She was also very accommodating of our group's wishes. I would highly recommend her tours.
