Bonjour! I am your private guide in Paris and Versailles. I specialise in customised, private tours for travellers who value authentic experiences and storytelling over ticking off landmarks. With over 15 years of experience, I design itineraries that focus on slow-paced exploration, uncovering the history, art, and hidden corners of Paris and Versailles at a comfortable rhythm. Originally from the Netherlands, I moved to Paris after completing a Bachelor degree in Tourism and Leisure Management and a Master’s degree in Political Science. What began as a short stay quickly became permanent — I fell in love with the city, its culture, and its neighbourhoods. I combined this passion with formal training and earned my official French tour guide licence, giving skip-the-line access to museums and monuments. Whether you want cultural walking tours, skip-the-line museum visits, family-friendly experiences, or hidden gems, I create a personalised, engaging journey that is immersive, memorable, and truly yours. Send me a message or book one of the existing tours directly via the tour pages! NEW in 2026: - First time Paris tour by car - Half day Versailles by car - VIP behind the scènes Versailles with a visit to the private apartments of Louis XV and XVI. Also write me for full day versions or requests for groups over 6 persons. Qualifications: Official Licensed and Certified Tour Guide for France (Ministry of Culture and Tourism) Member of the National Association of Licensed Tour Guides in France (FNGIC) Master’s Degree in Political Science International Relations (University of Amsterdam) Bachelor of Arts in Tourism and Leisure Management (NHTV University of Applied Sciences, Breda) PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor

Biking is the best, most comfortable and fun way to see the city and to get a good orientation. With an experienced local bike tour guide who knows all the bike lanes and backstreets, it's definitely a must do! In a short time we can cover most of the famous sites and also cycle into 'Paris behind the scenes'. * Start and end at the bike rental near Pompidou center in the heart of Paris. * combine walking and biking when using the city bikes. Below: itinerary options.
Susanne was an amazing tour guide. She was incredibly flexible and knowledgeable. We had some weather issues (rain, hale,etc) but she worked around that and came up with other ideas on what to see when bikes were not used any longer. We started out time in Paris with Susanne, and we were so glad that we did. Highly recommend any tour with her!
Susanna was amazing! Very accommodating! Was happy to adjust our plans for the desired of our 16 year old girls! Kept it interesting for both them and us! Also helped us navigate public transportation and gave us wonderful recommendations for our picnic!
Susanne was VERY accommodating with us needing a tandem, bike!! THANK YOU!! We enjoyed seeing sites and learning the historical relationship in this area.
Susanne customized our bike ride to our interests. We had so much fun that our tour went a little longer than expected. She was very flexible in allowing us to see more than expected. Thanks for a great day!
We took a private bike tour through Paris with Susanne the day we arrived. It was a great way to start the trip a get a feel for Paris. Susanne was very informative and pleasure to tour with.
Susanne was such a pleasure. She made our day so memorable. Thank you Susanne!!!!!
