Bonjour! I am an Italian art historian Parisian at heart and a licensed tour guide in France. I fell in love with Paris a long time ago, when I visited this incredible city for the first time. When I moved here I decided to learn everything about its history, culture, art but also legends, traditions, food, lifestyle, boutiques. . . I read all the books I could; I visited every single museum, art collection, monument and historical place I could, including the closed ones (good guides always have great connection); I walked along (almost) every street, garden, square and I consumed some many shoes you cannot even image. I ended up being a French licensed tour guide, a professional personal shopper in Paris and I am still learning! I make new discoveries every day and I love sharing my knowledge with travelers who are curious to learn something more than what you can read in tourists' books. In my tour, I love making the past lives again, following unusual paths even in the most touristic areas and letting you experience the authentic Paris, feeling like local. I like the idea of a sustainable tourism, even in a city like Paris. If you like walking around, let's take it slow and enjoy the city and its secrets addresses. . . Sun or rain it will be spectacular! I am smiling and flexible: if you are looking for a truly taylormade Parisian tour in a very friendly atmosphere feel free to contact me and I will organise it for you: from walking tours in the city to high-end shopping experiences, from Skip-the-line Museums visits to thematic itineraries to enjoy Parisian cultural or gastronomic heritage. . . all my tours are studied to be fun, informative and safe (including headsets that I personally and carefully sanitize after every single use). I have a strong historical and artistic background (graduated with honours in History of Art in Venice, Italy) and I've been working in tourism for more than 9 years. I have 3 different tour guide licenses, including the official French Tour Guide License (Carte Professionelle de Guide Conferencier n. 1475034P) so I can guide you in all French museums and monuments, providing a Skip-the-line service for almost all of them. I am not a driver but I can arrange for you private transfers with fully licensed and professionally insured drivers in Paris and outside the city (day excursions to Versailles, Loire Castles, Chartres. . . ). I've been working with schools for years (and I have 2 children) so I know what you are looking for if you are travelling with kids. - MA degree in Art History - Graduated with honours in Conservation of Cultural Heritage and Art History (Ca' Foscari University, Venice, Italy) - specialized in XVI century art - Former art history teacher - Carte Professionelle de Guide-Conferencier (number: n. 1475034P) - Member of FNGIC (Federation Nationale Des Guides Interpretes et Conferencier) - Member of Paris Historique, a national association dedicated to the protection and enhancement of Parisian cultural heritage - Viking Local Guide Certificate of Excellence (Oct. 2016) I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car or minivan and driver

Picasso is the greatest artist of the XX century. His mastery in different artistic disciplines, his technical skills, his prolific production are unique. His art never leave you indifferent: some people love it and some people hate it. But what is the meaning of his artistic universe made of strange shapes and colors? How Pablo, a young Spanish artist, son of an Academic painter, became Picasso, one of the most famous artist of all the time? Let me answer to all these questions - and many others! - during a private tour in the magnificent Hotel Sale', a former 17th Century mansion, now the Pablo Picasso museum in Paris. We will admire together paintings, drawings, collages and sculptures, masterpieces and lesser famous works and follow Picasso artistic life to understand his formal experimentation. Are you ready to have your own idea about Picasso?
- Meeting at the Museum entrance (on request I can meet you at your hotel/apartment in Paris city center if possible) - little introduction to Picasso's life - visit to the Picasso Museum - end of service in Picasso museum where you can visit the temporary exhibition (if any), do some shopping in the bookstore or enjoy a coffee in the caffetteria. Would you like to personalize this tour adding a visit to the temporary exhibition or a walking tour in the Marais district where the Museum is? And what about discovering other places related to Picasso or Avant Guard artists in Paris? Just let me know and I will create the perfect tour.
