Paris has been my home for over twenty years, and curiosity still guides me every day. I’m someone who finds joy in small, meaningful details: baking for friends, spending time with horses, practicing calligraphy, painting, and recently exploring medieval miniature painting. These quiet, patient arts shape the way I see the world — with attention, care, and pleasure in taking time. My path to guiding began years ago while I was training to become an antique expert at the auction house Drouot. One day, a professor brought us to the Louvre and showed it to us as if it were his own home. That moment stayed with me. It inspired me to pursue professional museum guide training and eventually become a licensed guide. Since then, museums — especially the Louvre — have become places I truly enjoy making welcoming, clear, and approachable for others. I believe a museum visit should leave you with more than memories. One of the most rewarding parts of my work is helping visitors understand how to look at paintings, using Louvre masterpieces as examples, so they leave with confidence and skills they can use in any museum they visit afterward. My tours are conversational, adapted to your interests and pace, and designed to make art feel accessible rather than intimidating. With my long local experience and professional background in art history and museums, I guide Paris with both depth and warmth. I would be delighted to welcome you for a personalized visit and to help you experience the city — and its museums — in a thoughtful, relaxed, and memorable way.

Overview of your Paris tour

This private Louvre tour offers a clear and unhurried introduction to the museum’s most important masterpieces. Through a thoughtful selection of works, I help you understand the Louvre without feeling overwhelmed. Rather than trying to see everything, we focus on quality, context, and meaning. Using stories, historical background, and close visual observation, I explain paintings and sculptures in an accessible way, even if you don’t have an art history background. This tour is ideal for first-time visitors or travelers who want to experience the Louvre with clarity, confidence, and enjoyment — leaving with more than just photos.
