Hi, I’m Thomas, born and raised Parisian. For over a decade, I’ve been passionate about uncovering the stories behind Paris’s rich historical and artistic heritage. Every street, artwork, and monument here holds layers of meaning, and my fascination began right on my doorstep. Since the age of seventeen, I’ve traveled extensively across Europe and Asia, deepening my understanding of art and history. I love sharing these insights with curious visitors eager to explore Paris and its global influence. Over the past eight years, I’ve dedicated myself to becoming a licensed tour guide, earning university degrees in History, Art History, and Guiding. After years of experience as a heritage interpreter and museum educator, I now lead tours in both English and French, helping visitors, whether first-timers or seasoned travelers, discover the many facets of Paris and France. As a local, I know the city inside out, past and present. My goal is to bring Paris to life through engaging stories, entertaining anecdotes, and informative tours that reveal the city’s best-kept secrets.

Overview of your Paris tour

"There is more of Montmartre in Paris than Paris in Montmartre", a famous local motto that reminds us that this iconic hill was once a small town separate from Paris, only becoming part of the city in 1860. The French village atmosphere still is in the air, making the area truly one of a kind. Let’s take a walk with a born-and-raised Parisian who knows the past and present of the hill. We’ll step inside the Sacré-Cœur Basilica and wander through the surrounding streets. You’ll see how Montmartre’s influence shaped Paris through historical events and as the home of many famous artists...
