About the Guru

Hello Travelers ! I'm Diane, Parisian since 2005. I am a fashion designer with a passion for History and Art, and I love to take people around my city and share my love for the French capital and its cultural background. I offer tours in English or French, focusing on themes such as fashion history or contemporary art, to discover Paris with a new eye.

About the Tour

Paris, an open-air art museum!
Of course, Paris is known for its extraordinary museums, but do you know that you don't need to enter an exhibition to see works of art made by the greatest artists? Paris is filled with major contemporary art pieces, you just have to know where to find them!

A different way to visit Paris, through the prism of contemporary art, while strolling through the historic heart of the city, and learning more about some emblematic figures such as Maillol, Niki de Saint Phalles, Jeff Koons, and many more.
Tour will start in front of the Centre Pompidou, and end in front of the Grand Palais.
During the walk, we will see important landmarks, such as :

Centre George Pompidou
Palais Royal
the Louvre museum
Place de la Concorde
the Grand Palais

I’ve been to Paris many times and most of the places and things we saw was for my first time. Fascinating. Diane spoke to you as a friend and not a lecturer, making this tour very enjoyable.
