After a law degree in Italy and Austria, I worked as a journalist for nearly 20 years, first in Italy and from 1995 to 2014 in Paris. I started guiding in 2014 and followed a new education for my national French guiding license. With my wife Kristina, an architect and historian of art, we created a guiding agency in Paris in which by now work a dozen highly qualified and licensed guides. All of us are driven by love for art, passion for history and eagerness of showing the French beauty to our guests. We provide private and group city tours as well as visits in the main Parisian museums as for instance Louvre and Musée d'Orsay. We manage also excursions to the Palace of Versailles, to the mansion of Monet, to Normandy and so on. During the academic year, I still give lessons for journalism in the Parisian university HEIP.
On the days of week I am available or busy according to the seasons. During the academic year (October to May) I am teaching in university. However, in my company MSP SAS we have a dozen guides who all fulfil the guidelines of quality and expertise I put on myself and my wife Kristina with whom I manage the company. Our guides a available each day of the week.
All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!

“Top-shelf Guide”
I hired Christian for a second German-language tour for my friends. He speaks several languages very well. He is also masterful at providing concept for the building and the artworks. You will learn so much. He is kind and flexible, as well. Highly recommend.

Dear Ginger, Thank you so much for the great review. I was more than happy to guide you and your friends at Louvre and Orsay Museum. All of you were great listeners and highly interested in my tours. Hope to see you back soon in Paris for more explorations of the treasures in the City of Light. Best wishes, Christian

“An Excellent Guide”
I hired Christian for my German friends and they reported back to me that he was absolutely fantastic! His German was perfect and his the context he gave for the building and the artwork were very easy to understand, but also very complete. I highly recommend this guide without reservation.

“Louvre with Christian ”
We had a great time with Christian who managed to show us the Louvre and its highlights in a very limited time. He gave us a perfect overview of the museum and showed us all the highlights. He had very interesting stories to tell and we enjoyed the time with him. He was very flexible and responded to our requests. Thank you Christian for some wonderfull insights!
