🌏 Welcome to Switzerland ! Based near Bern, I am a local medievalist art historian and archaeologist with broad cultural interests and over 30 years of guiding experience. I started guiding for Swiss, French and Spanish universities, museums and international congresses in 1994, then entered the tourism field in 2018 and became a licensed guide in Bern … and an official smile dispenser! ✨I am passionate about heritage: my tours are built on over 20 years of scientific research and publications in international peer-reviewed journals and exhibition catalogues. I love my job, because it gives me the opportunity to bring history to life for others. Guiding visitors through monuments, landscapes and traditions allows them to experience heritage as a living expression of the people who created it — as a three-dimensional illustration of history. I hope you leave not only with beautiful images, but also with a deeper connection to the places you have discovered. And in my opinion, this is possible only if knowledge is shared in an accessible, lively and fascinating way. A memorable journey is not only about what you see, but also about how you experience it. Every traveler is different. Whether you are interested in history and architecture, Swiss craftsmanship, mountain landscapes, roaring waterfalls or Alpine adventures, I create flexible itineraries designed around your expectations and pace, balancing sightseeing, stories, relax, and the simple pleasure of enjoying the moment. My goal is that you make meaningful discoveries and create unforgettable memories. 👉 Are you ready to uncover the Switzerland that most visitors never get to see? Pack your curiosity, I’ll take care of the rest. See you soon in Switzerland ! 📌 Qualifications: • City Guide Certificate, Bern Tourist Office • PhD in Art History, University of Lausanne • MA in Art History, University of Poitiers • MA in Archaeology, Pontifical Institute of Christian Archaeology, Rome • MA in Humanities, University of Geneva I am not a driver, but if you need one I can arrange a chauffeur for you.

EXPERIENCE A UNIQUE MULTI-PERSPECTIVE EXPLORATION OF BERN
Overview of your Bern tour
Discover Bern through an expert multi-layer journey combining medieval streets, city highlights, archaeological layers, and panoramic viewpoints. This immersive walking tour reveals the UNESCO-listed old town like the Zytglogge, Bern’s cathedral, Bern’s Federal Palace and more, offering a deeper understanding of the geological, geographic and historical forces that shaped the city over time. The shift between street level and elevated perspectives with an helicopter flight over Bern, creates a richer and more powerful perception of the city, both intellectually and emotionally. It opens a final aerial dimension over the old town, the Aare river loop, and the Alpine horizon seen during the tour. A unique way to understand the whole picture of Bern from below, at street level, and from above in one continuous narrative.
