Bonjour! My name is Oxana, and I am a National State approved French tour guide. I was born in Moscow, Russia, from where my family moved to France in 1998. I have been living in Paris since, and now know this city like the back of my hand. After finishing secondary school, I first studied fine arts at the Sorbonne University and then joined the school for professional guides from which I graduated, in 2009, with a diploma and a national tourist guide license issued by the French Ministry of Culture and Tourism. Since then I have been working as a tour guide in Paris and its nearby regions with people from all over the world. I myself am a passionate traveler. I have visited over 20 countries in Europe, Asia and Latin America. I speak four languages: English, French, Russian and Spanish, which helps when I am travelling, discovering new continents, people, their history, their culture. As well as visiting other countries, I like to travel inside France, whose regions have so much to offer in terms of cultural heritage, landscapes and, of course, local cooking traditions. However, in spite of there being so many other amazing places on Earth, I truly believe that my city is the best one. Come and discover why! - National Tourist Guide License issued by the French Ministry of Culture and Tourism - Sorbonne University degree in Art History

BEFORE BOOKING MY TOUR please contact me first to enquiry what kind of tickets to book as the Louvre requires special reservation and tickets for any guided tour. PLEASE NOTE that my tour is made for children from 9 years old. Many parents would love to bring their children to the Louvre but are not sure that they would appreciate it. Sometimes museums tours seem too boring and art history is probably not the most passionate subject for children. However, this museum tour will be an entertaining adventure full of quizzes to be solved. Both children and adults can participate in this game while discovering some of the greatest masterpieces in the Louvre: Ancient Greek and Roman art, Ancient Egyptian civilization, the Italian Renaissance paintings and, of course, the famous "Mona Lisa" by Leonardo da Vinci. As a result, during this tour, both children and their parents will have fun. Believe it or not, adults are often just as passionate about the game as their children.

We took this tour in July 2025 (sorry this is so late). We very much enjoyed the tour and the kids enjoyed it as well. Oxana was very patient and more than happy to help with a couple curveballs that came up. Thank you for making our trip to the Louvre terrific!
Oxana was an exceptional tour guide for our Louvre family tour, bringing boundless enthusiasm and deep knowledge to the experience. Her captivating storytelling about the Louvre’s history left us in awe. She connected wonderfully with our 10-year-old daughter, keeping her engaged and sparking her curiosity throughout. Oxana created a warm, welcoming atmosphere, encouraging questions without ever making us feel intimidated. We wholeheartedly recommend her services for an unforgettable tour!
Wow-Oxana was simply amazing with my 8-year-old granddaughter at the Louvre! We did a 3-generation trip to Paris and although both my daughter and I had been to Paris and the Louvre before it was the first time for my granddaughter. Oxana would squat down-so she was at my granddaughter's eye level and explain all about statues-paintings-whatever we were looking at-asking her questions and making a game out of some of the activities. It was such an interactive experience for her that she came away saying " I love museums" which is what I was hoping for. Oxana is so bright and personable-answered all our questions and then added information to it. Thank you for such a great tour-you're the best!
Thanks to Oxana we had a wonderful experience in Louvre. Our difficult to impress two 11 year old girls were engaged, learned some history and gained some valuable insights during the tour. My friend and I couldn’t be more happy. As a bonus, we also escaped long lines to enter the museum. The only comment, the tour was too short. We could have easily spent another hour with Oxana guiding us through the treasure trove of Louvre. Thank you!
Oxana was a wonderful guide and provided a meaningful experience for our visit. Even after the Louvre opened an hour late after a morning labor strike she still got us in and was able to complete her tour in full. Her knowledge is complete and she gave wonderful context to the works we saw. Despite the crowds she took us easily through the museum without us having to navigate at all, which is a real challenge as busy as the Louvre can be.
During this tour you will discover the Medieval Louvre, the Egyptian sphinx, the Greco-Roman section including the Venus de Milo and the Winged Victory of Samothrace, the Italian Renaissance section including paintings by Botticelli, Ghirlandaio, Rapahel, Leonardo Da Vinci (not only the Mona Lisa but much more). According to the Louvre rules you can stay inside the museum for up to three hours which gives an extra hour to discover the rest of the museum after my tour.
