About Tour Guide Hannah H.

I have lived in Paris since 2019 and am passionate about sharing the history and secrets of the City of Light! I lead private tours for families and small groups to help them feel at ease in the city. Drawing from my experience working in museum education, my routes are based in the rich history of the area and are easily adaptable for families with children of all ages. My tours include the history of the sites, a peek into Parisian everyday life, and activities for kids when applicable.
