Bonjour and welcome to Paris les amis! :) My name is Marie Diane, and as a Parisian tour guide, I have a passion for sharing the rich culture, history, and beauty of my stunning city with travelers from around the world! Born and raised in Paris, and with years of experience leading tours, I have developed a deep knowledge of the most iconic landmarks, hidden gems, and charming neighborhoods that make Paris truly unique! When you book a tour with me, you'll discover the secrets of the City of Light through the eyes of a local: from the winding streets of Montmartre to the grandeur of the Champs-Élysées, I'll take you on a journey through the city's fascinating past and vibrant present! But my tours aren't just limited to Paris! I also offer excursions to the surrounding countryside, where you'll experience the beauty of France's rural landscapes as the Loire Valley Region, Giverny, Normandie, the vineyards of the Champagne region, or even explore charming towns and villages that most visitors never get to see. Don't worry! I won't bore you with a long-winded lecture :) No, I'll take you on a journey through Paris, sharing my city's best-kept secrets and avoiding the tourist traps: I've got you covered! Do you prefer a customized tour? As your guide, I'll work with you to craft a customized tour that perfectly suits your interests, preferences, and schedule. Whether you're a history passionate, a foodie, an art lover, or simply looking to soak up the beauty of this incredible city of Love, I'll do my best to create a tour that exceeds your expectations and leaves you with memories to last a lifetime :) And while I may be new to the site, if you trust me, be sure to book with a guide who will do her best to create an unforgettable French experience! à Bientôt, Marie Diane *SOME TIPS * - Versailles: what if Versailles is closed (Mondays) or fully booked? —> We are lucky to have many castles around Paris, I can suggest a tour of the magnificent Castle of Chantilly, or the spectacular Castle of Fontainebleau. - Ubers are less expensive than cabs in Paris. (Public transportation is reliable too) - If you need assistance for booking tickets (Louvre, Orsay, Orangerie, ....) feel free to contact me :) My credentials: - Master's degree in history and art history from La Sorbonne - Art and History Expert - Official Licensed tour guide since 2016 - Member of the French Federation of Guide-Lecturers - Museum Lecturer - Art Restorer
