I'm a Dutchman with French Culture, local in Paris since 2002, raised in France in a very international context. In short, it seems like I was made to be a tour guide! I'm an active, passionate and dedicated tour guide since the summer of 2013. I have given thousands of Eiffel Tower tours, almost as many Versailles tours and Paris walking tours. I can happily say that I still enjoy meeting, entertaining and informing anyone who comes to visit my gorgeous City of Light. As a matter of fact, I've never lost my passion and have therefore decided to be an independent tour guide so as to dedicate myself even more to making your visit of Paris an unforgettable one! I can give tours in English, French and Dutch.

No approval and no response from a guide. That’s very disappointing 🥲

The tour with Maarten was great! You can tell that he's an experienced Guide. He can give tons of advice on what to do. We also enjoyed his manner of telling Stories. He is super fun!
