All Paris Private Tours: Classic & Unique – Paris by Emy
Customized private tours in Paris and unique programs tailored for:
I’ve lived in Paris for more than 20 years, but my connection to this city runs even deeper. My mother was born here, and my grandmother was a painter who graduated from the prestigious Beaux-Arts de Paris before moving to California to marry an American. Growing up with this Franco-American heritage and spending 5 years in the US myself, I understand both cultures intimately, allowing me to bridge French and American perspectives naturally. This unique background combining Parisian roots, Art History credentials, and cross-cultural fluency means I reveal must-see landmarks, world-class art museums, and hidden gems that only insiders know, all while understanding exactly what American travelers seek in an authentic Paris experience.
