Hi there! Nice to meet you

I am an artist originally from Ireland and arrived in Paris almost seven years ago. I planned to make it a one year stay, but I'm still here, so we can say that Paris is a super magnetic place!

My father and I spent a wonderful three hours meandering through Montmartre, as Olivia talked us through the history and food of the area. Highly recommend to really dive into Paris and the culture and the cuisine. A brilliant afternoon in Montmartre

We had the best afternoon in Montmarte with Olivia. We had a fantastic tour, learned so much, and every food choice was delicious and fresh. The three hours flew by! We felt that we spent the afternoon with a dear friend, not just a tour guide. Olivia is amazing!!!!

We were so impressed with Olivia's tour - her knowledge of history as well as recommendations for restaurants and dancing! The tour was paced just right with a mix of buildings, gardens and neighborhood offerings. We could not have been more pleased.Wonderful 3 hours!

Olivia was great. Friendly knowledgeable and good to talk to. This was much more than a food tour. There was history art and local secrets. Even though we ended up at the top of the hill it wasn’t strenuous. The pace was just right and the food was good too Wonderful Montmartre

Four of us - all in our 70’s and one with a bad knee - thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon walk through Montmartre with Olivia. Ostensibly a food tour, it was so much more than that. While we walked, and between and during our tastings, Olivia introduced us to the history and art and culture of the neighborhood. Since she lives there herself, she also had personal information and anecdotes to share that brought life in Montmartre today alive for us; and we were grateful for the suggestions she offered for further explorations of the area. Because Olivia slowed down the pace of her tour for us, and because we told her we were as interested in history as in food, we didn’t stop - by our request, not hers - at all of the ordinary food tastings she offers on this tour. However, what we did taste was all wonderful and plentiful (bread, pastries, cheeses, oysters, wine, and the best quiche we’ve ever had); we were so full that we carried home with us what we just couldn’t eat. Olivia is so easy to spend time with - within moments of meeting her, it feels like she’s someone you’ve known for years. She is articulate, knowledgeable, professional, patient, accomodating, and so engaging that the time with her seems to fly by. We could have spent another couple of hours with her. If you are considering a tour with Olivia, don’t hesitate - just book it!Lovely afternoon with Olivia

Our walking tour with Olivia exceeded all my expectations. It was well planned, great fun and very informative. I'm a very keen photography and Olivia seemed to always have this in the back of her mind as we wondered the streets of Montmatre. I would highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking to discover Montmatre.Montmatre Revealed

Olivia was the perfect hostess for our food tour. She was professional and charming. She provided the right amount of history, pop culture fun facts, and interesting information about the places where we ate. The food was abundant and the walk was very easy, even though we were going uphill the whole time! I would have never found the places on my own. Could not have been better for my family of two adults and three young adults.A Taste of Paris with Olivia

The Tour with Olivia was great, as we saw a lot of different areas around Montmartre without seeing a lot of the crowded Tourist places.Montmartre tour without Tourists

We had an amazing time, walking around the Latin Quarter of Paris with Cathedrals, parks, Palaces and ending up at an amazing jazz club Caveau De La Huchette (shown in a scene in the movie La La Land) Olivia or “Liv”was so knowledgeable, friendly and so easy to talk to, connecting us to the best seats in the jazz club ….even without waiting in line. An amazing show and we will always be so grateful for the personalized adventure!! Thanks again Liv!!Amazing Paris and Jazz Experience
