Hello everyone !!! My name is Steeve and I will love to be your guide for your next trip to Paris. Let's start off with a bit of my own experience in the Tourism Industry. Born in Paris near Montmartre, I grew up on the left bank of the city in St Germain where I graduated from high school. I decided to study in the Travel University in San Diego in 1997 and 1998 before specialising in the Tourism Industry for two more years in Montpellier, south of France, and then becoming a licensed guide in Paris. I am also graduated from the French Wine University of Suze-la-Rousse and worked as a sommelier in Paris, before specialising in leading wine tours around France. I am very flexible, a real history buff and love guiding people. Of course wine and food !!! we are in France. I love my country . . . I only operate private tours in deluxe minivans with pick-up and drop off to and from your hotel. Before starting the tour, I love taking a few minutes to discuss the tour itself with you, so that I can better understand your expectations and make the best choices for the day, all personalised towards your interests and desires. My tours are never the same, because people who book my tours are regarded as individuals, so my first goal is always to customise your tour based on your wishes. I love to personalise my tours, share small anecdotes so everybody can enjoy the trip. You are not just buying an excursion somewhere, but rather a full French experience, where the guide makes all the difference. Hope to see you soon. . . - National Tourist Guide License issued by the French Ministry of Culture and Tourism - Professional Sommelier Diploma from the French Wine University of Suze-la-Rousse - Travel University International in San Diego - CA Could you please ask me directly by e-mail for my availability before booking with me, especially during high season from April 1st until October 31st. Thank you !

Discover the American sacred place of Belleau Wood and the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery
Overview of your Paris tour
The best introduction of WW2 in my opinion !!! I always say on my tour that you cannot understand WW2 if you don't understand WW1. . . It is the same war actually and certainly the best tour from Paris to prepare your next trip to Normandy. Every Americans who come exploring Normandy battlefields during WW2 should have visited first the place where Americans fought during WW1 to have a better understanding. The United States formally entered World War I on April 6th, 1917. By the time the war finally ended, on November 11, 1918, more than 2 million American soldiers had served on the battlefields of Western Europe, and some 50, 000 of them had lost their lives.
Your Paris tour itinerary
I will pick you up from your hotel in Paris at 8. 30 am in a deluxe private vehicle and you will depart immediately to the Pays de Meaux, just an hour east side of Paris. Upon your arrival, I will give you an introduction to the Great War. You will begin your day with the visit of the famous museum of the Great War, then discover the town of Chateau Thierry, the impressive American monument of the Hill 204, The Aisne Marne American Cemetery and Memorial where 2289 American soldiers are buried and the famous battlefields of Belleau Wood where the Marines got their nickname Devil Dogs. Cannons, vestiges of trenches and shell holes still remain in Belleau Wood !!!
