Private Paris Tours — Highlights, Museums & Versailles with your Local guide, Celia S. Bonjour et Bienvenue! Planning a trip to Paris? Whether it’s your first visit or a return journey, I would be delighted to help you discover the city in a meaningful and enjoyable way. I have called Paris home for over 30 years. Born in Hong Kong, I fell in love with this city through both its history and its everyday life, and I continue to enjoy sharing it with visitors from around the world. As a French government-certified Guide-Conférencier with over 10 years of experience, I offer carefully designed private tours that combine iconic landmarks with authentic Parisian atmosphere. My experiences include Paris highlights tours, charming neighborhood walks, and museum visits such as the Louvre and Musée d’Orsay. I also guide day trips to Versailles, where I am specially qualified to offer the Private Apartment of Kings VIP tour as well as longer excursions to destinations such as Normandy or Mont Saint-Michel. My approach is structured yet flexible: each tour has a clear design, while remaining adapted to your pace, interests, and travel style. I enjoy bringing history to life through storytelling, while also including simple pleasures such as café stops, bakeries, and local discoveries. My goal is to offer you a relaxed, enriching, and beautifully balanced experience of Paris and beyond. French government-certified Guide-Conférencier Member of FNGIC (Fédération Nationale des Guides Interprètes)

Overview of your Paris tour

Discover Impressionism on this private 2-hour guided visit of the Musée d’Orsay, one of Paris’s most beautiful museums, housed in a former railway station. This tour explores the artistic revolutions of the 19th century, from Realism and the Barbizon School to Impressionism and Post-Impressionism. Together, we will discover how Monet, Renoir, Degas, Van Gogh, Gauguin, and others transformed the way we see light, colour, and everyday life. More than an art visit, this is a storytelling experience. I will share the lives behind the masterpieces — friendships, rivalries, struggles, and inspirations — to bring the artworks to life. Ideal for first-time visitors, art lovers, and families. The visit can be adapted for children with simple explanations and engaging stories. Museum entrance tickets are not included. Please purchase in advance from the official Musée d’Orsay website.
