About

I am a licensed tour guide in NYC and Washington, D.C., and have over 15 years of experience in tourism.  I specialize in private, made to measure tours for individuals and small groups, opera/cultural tours, incentive & corporate travel, and medical conventions.  Born in Switzerland, I am French and studied philosophy, comparative literature, and opera in the U.S. and Germany before coming to New York.  I speak French, German, Spanish, Italian, and English fluently.  I emphasize architecture, history, and culture in my tours which are meticulously prepared and researched.  I enjoy people and travel and also act as tour manager/tour escort on trips of 7-14 days in the U.S. and Canada.  Recent destinations include:  East Coast from Washington, D.C. to Boston and New England; Ontario and Quebec; Canadian Rockies; National Parks of the Southwest from Yellowstone to Mesa Verde; Cowboys and Indians in the American West; and Jazz & Blues from New Orleans to Chicago.  I am always excited to learn about new regions of the U.S. and open to all destinations.  I am professional and dependable, creative, and very flexible.
