Bonjour! I grew up on the coast of Britanny - Western France, near the famous Normandy. I used to live in Paris for many years and moved not long ago to Versailles, the capital city of the french monarchy where the famous Sun King's Palace is. I guess it was meant to be because I've been fascinated by the royal history of France since I was a child… Later on, I discovered a special interest for foreign languages and lived in several countries to work on that (US, Spain, Mexico, Italy and Brazil). And if you add the fact that I love driving, then it's been the perfect recipe for me to become a driver-guide and take you all around France to share my love of this country. I have worked as a guide for a decade and specialized in private tours because I want to be able to share with you more than historical information. You actually really get to meet the people you greet only in private tours. It is definitely the best option to discover at your own pace and I'll be happy to offer flexibility, as this is what I look for when I travel myself. The region of Paris is usually the part that people first discover, there is so much to see! However it is also really worth to do trips outside Paris, to the WW2 landing beaches of Normandy, the Champagne vineyards, the Castles of the Loire Valley, and more. I can take you to all those places and you will experience the variety of the wonders of France, whether it comes to landscapes, architecture, food or wines. I look forward to hearing from you, knowing your expectations and getting started for a beautiful trip!

Overview of your Paris tour

If you would like to visit the famous Palace, its Gardens AND the Queen's Estate, this is the tour you've been looking for! You will see more than what you get to see with the typical half-day tour. Come tour with me and I'll give you a complete visit. I'll meet you in Paris at 1:00pm and we'll drive to Versailles. We'll go to the Estate of Queen Marie-Antoinette to visit both Petit Trianon - her favorite private residence - and her quaint private Hamlet. After that, we'll take a walk through the Royal Gardens heading to the Palace. Versailles embodies the french absolute monarchy that the Sun King imposed, which ended with the French Revolution. This tour will make you travel through the 17th and 18th centuries when this Palace was the center of a world that has now disappeared.
