Bonjour, et Bienvenue à Paris ! Whether it's your first time in the capital or not, whether you are traveling alone or with your family, for 2H or a week, let me welcome you and be your guide in my beautiful city. --About me-- My name is Simon, I was born and raised in Paris! I am a very curious person, and passionate about History (French and World), Art, and Sciences. As a student, in 2013, I co-founded my school's Arts Bureau and started giving city tours. I continued this activity on the side for several years, until Covid happened. I decided at this time to become a full-time guide, and have never been happier! I pursued another Master, and a professional licence to become a qualified guide ! Today, I have the privilege of doing what I love every day : uncovering fascinating stories, exploring hidden corners, designing customized tours, and sharing Paris’ magic with visitors from around the world. Do you want to visit a particular monument? Discover secret photo spots? Taste an authentic French croissant? Or simply enjoy a coffee while chatting about Paris? I’ll take you to the city’s best-kept secrets and iconic highlights alike. Every tour is fully customizable, built around your interests and your schedule, so you get the perfect Paris experience. We will build the tour together, to make sure you and your family will have a great time during your time in Paris. --Professional highlights-- ○ Professional licence : Tour guide (2023) ○ Master in Cultural & Scientific communication (2022) ○ Engineering degree (2017) ○ Continuing education in history of art from French guiding associations and the School of the Louvre. In 2025/26, I'm taking the following classes at the Louvre : Egyptian epigraphy, Shadow & Light in art, Life & Death in Egypt, Mesopotamia, and a focus on Medieval times. --Booking info-- Please contact me before booking any tour to discuss your plans. I can guide you through many areas of Paris, including those not listed on the platform. Whether it’s Sainte-Chapelle, Montmartre, Le Marais, the covered passages, Versailles, or niche museums, let me know your interests and I’ll craft your perfect itinerary. Tours are generally limited to 6 participants, mainly due to ticketing constraints. Please get in touch if your group is larger. (Some tours are currently on hold, as tickets rules changed in 2026 (Louvre, Sainte-Chapelle), and became quite expensive.. If you are interested, of course you can contact me !) Let’s create your unforgettable Paris experience together. Share your dreams for the trip, and I’ll make them come alive. Be my guest, Simon
