Hello, I’m Dasha. I’m an art historian, licensed guide, and long-time Parisian—I’ve been living in this city I love for over 22 years. I studied at the Sorbonne, where I completed my Master’s degree in Art History, with a focus on painting and the history of both public and private art collections. Over the years, I’ve worked with auction houses such as Christie’s and Piasa, as well as contemporary galleries, and I’ve also been involved in curating exhibitions with emerging artists. These experiences have deeply shaped the way I see and share art today. But beyond my academic background, what I truly love is sharing my passion. For me, guiding is about creating meaningful and personal experiences—helping you not only discover masterpieces, but also understand them and connect with the spirit of Paris. I’ve always been passionate about travel. I’ve explored many countries across Europe, as well as India and South America, and I also lived in Dublin for a year as a Trinity College student. These experiences have made me open-minded, curious, and attentive to each traveler’s expectations. Today, I live in the Bastille area, right in the heart of Paris. I’ve also had the chance to live in beautiful neighborhoods such as Montmartre, Saint-Germain, Le Marais, and Versailles—experiences that allow me to guide you not only as a professional, but as someone who truly knows and loves the city. Alongside my work as a guide, I’m also a musician and DJ, passionate about electronic music, sound healing, and Vipassana meditation —another way for me to connect with people and create meaningful experiences. I enjoy helping travelers design their stay—through museum visits, walking tours, and personalized recommendations. My goal is always the same: to make you feel at ease, inspired, and truly connected to Paris, as if you had a local friend or even a family here. All my tours are flexible and tailored to your interests, because every journey is unique and deserves care and attention. I look forward to welcoming you to Paris. Anatole's France quote reflects perfectly my credo: "With science and love we made the world."

Paris is the capital of France and known as the most beautiful and romantic city in the world. The past and the present are full of historical and cultural things around. That is why walking from one district or historical monument to another allows us to travel in the time and imagine how the city have been settled in the past by the kings and royal families as well as by intellectuals, writers and bohemian artists. This tour offers you the best way to learn the Main highlights and hidden places of Paris by car with a French local driver and me as an experience tour guide. If you wish during our tour we can have a break for lunch at highly recommended French restaurant.
We will pick you up from your place and bring you to the most beautiful spots in Paris such as the area of Montmartre with Sacred Heart, Trocadero with Eiffel Tower, The Avenue des Champs-Élysées with Triumphal Arch, Big and Small Palaces with bridge of Alexandre III and les Invalides, Louvre with Tuileries Gardens, The Palais-Royal and Notre Dame de Paris. We will continue at the area of Quartier Latin with Luxembourg Garden and Sorbon University and we will finish our tour at the area of Marais.
