Hello everyone, I am Caroline and I am a French tour guide from Paris! I have a passion for history and the city of Paris, that is why I decided to be a tour guide in 2010 after having my license. What are my other passions? I love good food (of course I am French!), fashion and traveling all around the world to discover other cultures! If you want to discover museums, monuments and quarters of Paris, follow me! I will be very happy to share my knowledge with you and I will give you explanations about French culture and history. Before being a tour guide, I worked in a school, so I am used to working with children and I adapt my speech to them. See you soon in Paris! - master of history 2004 - licence of tour guide 2010 I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Paris tour

Come with me and discover the beautiful La Marais, the famous aristocratic playground filled with stunning "hôtels particuliers", private palaces built by the aristocracy and wealthy social climbers. Join me and experience one of the historic districts of Paris and one of the highlights of any trip to Paris. Le Marais is one of the most popular neighborhoods in Paris known for its old world charm, picturesque narrow cobbled streets, hidden courtyards and peaceful gardens, a multitude of palaces, a vibrant Jewish community and a thriving culture ofof galleries and cafes. This iconic neighborhood will make you feel like you've stepped back in time and as many say, here you can expect to find the closest resemblance to life in medieval Paris. Join me and let's explore this wonderful part of eternal Paris.

Caroline was fantastic. She had a hard task as our group age ranged from 11 years old to 86 years with different levels of interest and understanding as well as walking speeds. She was attuned to all participants and engaged them at their different levels with her comments and questions. She was knowledgeable and very nice.

Caroline gave our family of four the best tour of Le Marais! She was engaging, knowledgeable, and had a delightful personality. And, we always appreciate the willingness to adjust course to account for the interests of our group, particularly the teenagers. It was a perfect amount of time and we really loved ending the tour at the Marche des Infantes Rouges! 5 stars for Caroline!

Caroline was a pleasure to have as a guide for our Marais tour. She was very knowledgeable and tailored the stops mid-tour to our informally-commented interests, including making a stop at a great local macaron shop. Would highly recommend!

We very much enjoyed our tour of the Marais with Caroline. There were many interesting and varied things to see including churches, gardens, historical buildings. Caroline's historical knowledge and friendly personality ensured that we had a great tour. Thank you!
