"My husband and I only had a short amount of time to visit Paris. I reached out to Lucien about a custom tour and he had great suggestions. He is extremely knowledgeable, and a good conversationalist. My husband and I loved the time spent on the tour. I feel like we got a better insight and feel for the city than we ever would have walking around sight seeing on our own. Thank you again Lucien for the fantastic tour. "
"We enjoyed our day with Lucien immensely! He was flexible in our meeting time and place and created an itinerary that worked with the rest of our plans in Paris so that we didn’t have overlap. After meeting us and chatting for a while, he also took us to some spots not originally discussed because he thought we would appreciate them. It was a great day, good pace, with time to stop to explore shops, appreciate the sites, and ask questions. Highly recommend him!"
"Lucien was awesome to work with. Even before we arrived in Paris he was very responsive, gave us lots of recommendations for purchasing tickets ahead of time and great dinner spots.
Once we met up with Lucien he was full of Paris history. We loved getting to hear stories and learn as much as we did and we never felt overwhelmed it was the perfect amount of detail. We also visited a basque restaurant for lunch with Lucien and the spot did not disappoint.
As our day winded down he even taught us how to use the metro. If we come back we will 100% be booking with him again."
Step into a world of royal fantasy at the Palace of Versailles! Imagine walking through golden halls and lush gardens where kings and queens once ruled. A private Versailles tour with a local is unforgettable!
History of the Palace of Versailles
Originally a humble hunting lodge for King Louis XIII, his son, the Sun King Louis XIV, transformed it into the magnificent Palace of Versailles. It became the ultimate symbol of absolute monarchy in France.
The Dazzling Hall of Mirrors at Versailles
The most famous room in the Palace of Versailles is the Hall of Mirrors. Imagine the lavish royal parties held under its 17 arches and 357 mirrors, reflecting the light and gardens. A private tour makes it magical.
Marie Antoinette's Private Versailles
Queen Marie Antoinette escaped the pressures of court life at her private estate, the Petit Trianon. A tour of Versailles can reveal this more intimate, personal side of the infamous queen's life at the palace.
A World-Changing Treaty at Versailles
Beyond royalty, Versailles played a crucial role in world history. The Treaty of Versailles, officially ending World War I, was signed in the Hall of Mirrors in 1919. A guide can show you the very spot.
The Magical Gardens of Versailles
The Gardens of Versailles are a masterpiece designed by André Le Nôtre. Discover hidden groves, classical statues, and spectacular fountains. Exploring these vast gardens is a key part of any Versailles tour.

Personalized tour of Paris with Lucien
"Absolutely wonderful experience. Lucien was able to include several of the sites and museums that we were hoping to visit. He also gave us instructions on which ones were best to do on our own so that we were able to optimize our time together. Recommended an excellent lunch spot as well. My husband could’ve spent the entire week walking thru Invalides with Lucien! Overall, couldn’t have had a better day and so grateful that we found Lucien."
"We took a 6-hour tour with Lucien. He was as good as advertised. We saw what we wanted, heard a good historical perspective of each site, learned how to use the subway system, etc. It was a lot of walking, but unavoidable, of course. I would recommend Lucien if you are on a short trip to Paris or just want to get oriented with the city."
"We received an excellent tour of the districts closest to where we were staying. Lucien was highly informative and clearly interested in helping us learn about Paris. "
"Lucien was a great tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about his city and had great stories to share with us to connect the dots of the history of Paris and what he was showing us. He showed us a lot of great areas that we wouldn't have otherwise seen and was flexible to cater to our needs (we had a sick kid with us), so that was appreciated. I would definitely recommend this tour to others. "
"We had such a fun and informative time with Lucien, can’t recommend him enough. Such an interesting person and presents his city with such insight and passion, truly time well spent! Thanks Lucien!"
"Lucien is an awesome guide!!! He is very passionate about what he does!! It was such an amazing experience, I just can’t say enough good things about this tour and our wonderful guide Lucien! I would highly recommend. We went off the beaten path and truly got to experience Paris like a local!!! Thank you !!!"
"Lucien is very knowledgable and informative. Without his guidance we would have Been stuck with all of the other tourist. He took us off of the beaten path through sidestreets and small neighborhoods that were less crowded and more interesting. He took us to a local restaurant for lunch that was so delicious. Not only did he know everything about the major sites, he was so knowledgeable and all of the fables in history. Hi been stuck with all of the other tourist.
