Hello and welcome! Since 2015, I’ve had the pleasure of guiding travelers from all over the world through the magical streets of Paris. Born just a stone’s throw from the Palace of Versailles, I’ve always been passionate about French history—and Paris in particular. I know this magnificent city like the back of my hand and love sharing its hidden stories and secrets. After spending a few inspiring years in Spain, I returned to Paris to study Literature at the Sorbonne. Alongside my studies, I also pursued my other great passion: music. Today, I’m proud to call myself both a professional singer and a licensed tour guide. I offer a wide range of historical tours in Paris and beyond. Whether you’d like a relaxed walking tour, a journey using the city’s excellent public transport, or a premium experience with a private driver, I can tailor each visit to suit your pace and preferences. So come along as we explore Paris together—its iconic landmarks, lesser-known corners, and timeless charm. I’ll take you to all my favorite spots, and maybe even a few places only locals know. À bientôt in Paris! Marc Candes - Official Licensed Guide-Conferencier - Bachelor degree in French Literature and History at Sorbonne University, Paris - Guide in Paris since 2015

Marc was a delightful and most informative guide. We started with coffee and a croissant on a sunny park bench watching children play. Then off through the neighborhood to the market for a fabulous lunch street side of local oysters, meats, cheeses, and wines. Truly delightful! Additionally, he gave us wonderful recommendations for our time in Paris!

We had such a fun time with Marc! He is a true foodie and it was such an enjoyable tour. We learned so much about French meats, breads, cheeses, and wine and had a wonderful picnic in the Latin Quarter. This was our most memorable moment in Paris!
Robert J.United States
Marc knows Paris, especially the Latin Quarter. We had such a fantastic time: eating, shopping and sipping our way around the Latin Quarter. Both Parisians and other tourists were jealous of us at every stop. Marc allowed us to change the pace and if we wanted to loiter a little longer, we did. We could walk with Marc everyday for a week and always learn something new. The gems we learned to visit and the personal interactions with the shop owners was priceless. If you want to eat, shop and sip your way thru the Latin Quarter, Marc is your guy!

We will be walking in the Latin Quarter and stopping in some of the best shops to prepare our tasting that will take place in my favourite wine shop. Then we will continue on our way to see all the beauty of this neighborhood.
