Julie was an absolutely informative, charming guide on two separate adventures. In the morning she guided us through a two hour tour of the Louvre (our request to keep it manageable but still see some of the most impressive highlights). She was very sensitive to our needs and was everything a couple needs to get some insights about the museum without being overwhelmed. Thanks Julie for taking such good care of us and helping us see the museum through the eyes of a proud Parisian! (Hint: Ask her to show you the underground excavation of the ancient castle that began the development of the Louvre) :-)
In the afternoon Julie guided us through the Passages Couverts which we had heard about but never understood the development of Parisian commercial and social life in these beautiful little gems developed over the last 200 years. It was an adventure we'll bet few people get that allowed us to see how Paris worked for the average person.
Merci beaucoup Julie!

I went on a school trip to Paris and Julie was an amazing guide. She gave us lots of information while still being fun. Everyone became very close during this trip we were so sad to leave her! If you're planing on taking a trip to Paris choose Julie, you won't regret it!!!

I went to Paris on a school trip and Julie was our guide. We were one of her first groups she had for an entire week and it couldn’t have gone better. She was AMAZING. She knew so many historical facts about every place we had visited. She had become a great friend by the end of the week and none of us wanted to leave her. I totally recommend Julie if you are planing on touring Paris.

Our family visited Louvre with Julie in June 2018. She was recommended to us by Justine (Justin' Paris). Julie is very knowledgable and showed us several interesting aspects in Louvre. We spent about 2h in Louvre and got to see amazing things. She explained the historical aspects very well. Wished we had more time to explore Louvre. We highly recommend a visit to Louvre with Julie.

Julie was an amazing guide who really just felt like a close friend showing us around Paris. We had a great day and saw more of Paris in one day than we ever thought we would! Julie was extremely knowledgeable, and funny. She was also flexible with our schedule and interests and helped make sure we were knew where we were going even after the tour. We will definitely be calling her again when we go back to France!!

We can't recommend Julie enough. We booked her on the advice of Justine (Justin' Paris). She met us at Versailles and took us through the interior. She is completely fluent in English. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her. Price was reasonable and totally worth it.

Julie was really incredible. We started with a 1.5 hour tour of the Louvre. She was extremely knowledgeable, detailed and understood our group well. She gives perfect blend of history and practical information. Julie also adapts to the group well, meaning she doesn't take a one size fits all approach. She has great perspective and share it well. we were so impressed with the Louvre tour that we asked her to take us to Montmarte. that was an incredible experience. we really got to understand the deeply rooted history of this area and truly got an insider's look. a couple days later we felt like we wanted to truly see Notre Dame and Saint Chapelle. So we called Julie and she again took us on an incredible journey.
We really had a great time with Julie. We learned a lot and appreciated her sense of humor and perspective.
We look forward to the next tour on our next trip to Paris.

Julie was FABULOUS! She met us at the Louvre for a 1&1/2 tour . Unfortunately we were stuck in traffic so we lost some of our time with her ( she had to be on a train for another tour ) . Julie maneuvered us through the massive crowds that day to get us to spots were we could both view the art work and hear her ( not easy as I am 5' tall ) .
We had emailed her points of interest and she quickly moved us from piece to piece without sacrificing any information. But it was her passion for the art that was so exciting and contagious. 1&1/2 is not long enough to enjoy all that Julie has to teach !!!!

Best way to see the Louvre! Julie was a wonderful guide. We were able to skip a huge line and go directly into the museum. Julie is extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. She was able to show us all the must see masterpieces and keep 2 teenagers thoroughly entertained.

Julie was a fantastic tour guide for the Louvre. She came recommended and we gave her what we needed. She respected our requests and showed us all the hotspots in a quick 90 minute tour. Our children were engaged the whole time and culminated with the Mona Lisa. Highly recommend her regardless of if you have children or not.
