Your Experience

Step inside a stunning converted luxury train station and discover one of the world's finest collections of modern art. This private tour is designed to cut through the museum noise and focus on what truly matters to you—whether that’s the revolutionary brushstrokes of the Impressionists, the vibrant world of Van Gogh, or the remarkable architecture of the building itself.

Rather than overwhelming you with dates and endless names, your guide will bring the art to life through compelling stories, scandals, and practical visual tips that help you truly "read" a painting. Because this tour is exclusive to your group (up to 6 people), the tempo is entirely yours to set. Need frequent breaks at the best bench spots? Looking for accessible routes with minimal stairs? Want to spend extra time taking photos at the famous giant clock face? Your guide adapts on the fly.

From the rebellious works of Manet to Degas’ intimate backstage dancers, experience Paris’s most charming museum in a way that feels seamless,
engaging, and personal.

Highlights

  • The Impressionists — A clear look at the big names (Monet, Renoir, Pissarro) and why their style actually changed everything
  • Van Gogh — We’ll head to his self-portraits and the *Starry Night* (subject to museum rotations)
  • Degas’ Dancers — How he captured the messy, moving reality of backstage Paris
  • Manet & Renoir — The 'rebels' of their time. I'll show you why these paintings caused such a scandal when they first appeared
  • The Giant Clock View — The best photo spot in the building (and a great place to see the city through the glass)
  • Architecture — The story of how a luxury train station became an art museum
  • How to 'Read' a Painting — I’ll share a few simple tricks to help you see things you’d normally walk right past
  • Hidden Gems — A few pieces I love that don't always get the big crowds
