Hi, I am Patricia, Born in Paris, and definitely in love with my town, I am an official Licensed guide registered with the Paris Tourist Office and National Tourist Federation since 2004. I love my profession, feeling happy to share my passion and knowledge with my guests. Initially, graduated from the High School of Interpreters and Translators in Rome, I worked for over 20 years as a translator in a French state company. , fluent in english, italian and spanish. A further degree in Art and History obtained in 2004 allowed me to start a new professional life, working as a licensed guide and found my own tours and event company. Through the streets or monuments of Paris, I enjoy reviving with my guests great historical figures and secret places, as well as touring through all Paris main museums, such as the Louvre, Orsay the Orangerie, or Versailles, but also those less known, skipping the lines, which I expect you to enjoy as I do! I can customize half days or full days Tours with private car with driver, or just walking tours, to discover the highlights, among which my favourites are Versailles, Malmaison, Giverny, Fontainebleau or Vaux le Vicomte, not forgetting the Normandy beaches and Loire Valley Castles. Of course, upon your request, I can tailor my tours to include various extra activities, such as : - A lunch in a typical Parisian "brasserie" -a wine or cheese tasting session in a restaurant, or a funny relaxing shopping walk through the pedestrian streets of Les Halles, or St Germain des Près, or Le Marais. . . . Just rely on me, you will be safe and feel happy ! Either this is your first time in Paris or you wish to deepen your knowledge of the French culture I will take care of every moment of your trip to really match with your wishes and sharing with you my passion. Official Licensed guide graduated from Marne la Vallée University, registered by the Paris Tourist Office and French National Guides Federation.

We had the most wonderful tour with Patricia. She was welcoming, kind and informative. We couldn't have asked for a better half day experience.

We very much enjoyed our time with Patricia and the driver Yung. The tour was quite arduous and the weather very hot but she was always mindful of our needs. We took in a wealth of information and our knowledge of Chatres and Versailles increased immeasurably. We spent the day with this charming lady and would recommend that others use her services.

Patricia did a terrific job of guiding us through Chartres Cathedral. She explained beautifully many of the Medieval stained glass windows . Most of the windows have been there since 1150 and are magnificent. Patricia and a driver picked us up at our hotel in Paris. There were 6 of us and we road in a comfortable van. We drove to Chartres (about an hour from Paris) and after the tour we enjoyed lunch in the town. Patricia picked a great restaurant. It was a wonderful day. I highly recommend the tour.

Memories are made when traveling with family and Patricia made out trip special and one we will not forget. We would not hesitate to recommend or go on another private tour with her. Thank you Patricia for making our trip to Paris so special. Jess and Joan
