Discover Paris with a guide who combines deep cultural knowledge, strong organization, and the ability to adapt every visit to your interests. More than 1400 tours on ToursByLocals & more than 500 reviews almost all of them 5 stars. I have been working as a professional guide since 2012 and I truly enjoy sharing Paris through clear, structured and engaging explanations. I have a very synthetic mindset and know how to highlight what really matters, making complex topics easy to understand and memorable. I am highly organized, especially when it comes to timing and logistics. My tours are designed to run smoothly and efficiently, allowing guests to make the most of their time. I am also a skilled and confident driver, used to navigating Paris efficiently and driving on day trips far away in the french countryside. Rather than focusing on a single specialty, I offer a broad and solid cultural knowledge — a “Swiss army knife” approach — which allows me to adapt quickly to a wide variety of interests and expectations : French history & Revolution, monarchy, gardens, architecture, religion, gastronomy, wine, urban development, real estate, monuments, museums and small talk too … I am particularly passionate about painting and sculpture, and I enjoy revealing the context, symbolism and hidden meanings behind artworks and doing so helping visitors better understand the masterpieces. I adapt easily to each guest’s pace, curiosity and level of knowledge. Whether you are looking for a structured historical overview, an interactive discussion, or a flexible and personalized itinerary, I adjust my guiding style accordingly. I genuinely enjoy communicating my knowledge and making cultural content accessible, clear and engaging. If you are looking for a reliable, well-organized and adaptable guide who can cover a wide range of topics while offering clear explanations and smooth logistics, I will be happy to design a tour tailored to your wishes. Contact me with your interests and I will design your perfect Paris itinerary !

I will meet you at your hotel and from there just let you carry in Paris to discover the City of Light ! The tour is combining driving, short walks and well-chosen stops, designed to show a great deal without losing meaning. This full day tour is the perfect one to make you maximize your time spent in Paris. Within 8 hours you will have a perfect overview of the city. As a resident and an historian, I will show you and explain the backgrounds of the major monuments of Paris. Throughout the day, clear explanations and well-chosen anecdotes help connect places, events and ideas. I'm also very flexible so do not hesitate to ask me if you have a special request : make a stop in an old bistrot, in a pastry shop or any site at your convenience. The Tour also includes individual tickets to the Eiffel Tower (second floor) and a 1 hour river cruise. Try to book it far in advance because it's sometime hard to get tickets at the Eiffel Tower
Romain provided an unforgettable experience. He paid close attention to the preferences I expressed prior to the tour and delivered exactly what I had requested. His careful planning assured that we did not have to deal with excessive crowds, even during tourist packed July. Our tour was a wonderful mix of major sights and out of the way corners. Thank you Romain - highly recommend!
Romain was wondering. We told him we wanted to see everything and I truly believe he took us down every road and made sure we saw every spot that made Paris, well Paris. We truly enjoyed our day with Romain and would absolutely use him again.
Our group included six adults aged 65 - 74 years of age. We had a great time with Romain. My wife and I used Romain in 2022 so we had knowledge of his excellence and professionalism. Romain has a very nice van that easily fit our group of six adults. Romain asked us first thing if had any special interests that he could show us. As four of group of six had never been in Paris we allowed Romain to set the agenda. We had a wonderful day hitting as many of the top spots as possible. We did a boat tour and a ride up the Eiffel Tower . . . and hit many other great spots. Romain helped us with a recommendation for dinner later that night. Romain is a professional and very personable. Everyone in our group loved our day with Romain.
Romain was such an amazing tour guide. His depth of knowledge and enthusiasm was incredible. His love of art and architecture really showed. We were constantly amazed with the information he provided. He definitely made our trip to Paris memorable.
We had a great day with Romain as our tour guide. He showed us all over Paris, toured the Eiffel Tower and took a boat trip on the Seine River. The weather was perfect and the sights were great.
We thoroughly enjoyed meeting Romain and being introduced to several of the main tourist sites around London. We ate at several different local restaurants and experienced the culture. Romain provided an informative perspective on the art, architecture and history. We learned a lot through both the driving and walking portions of our two days spent with him. Would recommend him to first time travels to Paris.
