Have you always dreamed of jumping behing the curtain of History? The one that your textbooks have ignored? This is timely! My experience as a licensed professional guide has taught me that you always take away the most intriguing facts from a visit. I want to share with you the little secrets that you won't find anywhere else, and that took me years to collect. What I love above all is to immerse my groups in the heart of history to truly "experience" these details as if you had lived then. With good humor and sometimes a little too much excitement, I am happy to share my passion with you! Degree from the Sorbonne University Several years experience for touring companies Excellent level at TOEIC exam in English I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle.

Discover the macabre stories of the old Paris
Overview of your Paris tour
Join me on a tour at dusk to share some of the lesser-known and macabre anecdotes of le Marais and of l'Île de la Cité. Let us travel back in time to bring these terrible events back to life, as in a real thriller. Be ready for torture, historical facts, and secrets, all while discovering emblematic places of Paris. From the small alleys to the main roads, they all bear the marks of a fascinating past. Step in the shoes of Marie-Antoinette just before she gets guillotined, learn about the mysterious curse of the templars knights, or even about the witches that were poisoning Louis the Fourteenth!
Your Paris tour itinerary
On that tour, we will take a five kilometer walk that will lead us from the Place des Vosges to the wonderful Rue de Rivoli, passing by the Hôtel de Ville and its gloomy square, all the way to Les Halles, le Louvre and finally l'île de la Cité to end right in front of Notre Dame.
