Bonjour! I am a professional tour guide and learned with one of the best, Rick Steves. His company hired and trained me when I left the United States and relocated to my homeland in 2019.
After a two-year hiatus, I happily returned to European roads in 2022. During that busy season, I took over 250 North American travelers around Paris and France.
Life gets busy during the touring season. I am often out of town, leading tours for Rick between May and September. Currently, I work on two of his best-selling itineraries: “Best of Paris in 7 Days” and “Paris and the Heart of France” (11 days.)
Life is busy, yet I do return to my home-base, Tours between guiding assignments where I lead neighborhood tours in my city when I am not on the road. Join me?

Book an In-Person Tour: Tours & the Loire Valley
Tours is a beautiful mid-sized city, the gateway to the Loire Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage site. It’s also under-rated and there’s a lot more to discover in town than meets the eye.
I’ve spent hours walking the streets of Tours and researching the area’s cultural, historical and gastronomic heritage. You know how much I love it here if you follow me on social media where I share Tours and my French life daily.
Join me on a half-day tour (full-day tours also available) and let me introduce you to my favorite neighborhoods in Tours. Together, we will travel from the past to the present, as we explore medieval streets and lively squares and discover the lives of locals, then and now.
Tours can be run in English or in French (Higher Intermediate or Advanced speakers only. Please request when booking).

Take a Virtual Tour: Join Véro on YouTube
In 2020 and 2021, while international travelers couldn’t come to France, I brought France to them. As a virtual tour guide, I focus on doing what I do best: sharing quality, original content on Paris and France, via live streamed events (YouTube, Facebook, Instagram) and video tours.
How often do you get to look at France and French culture through the eyes of a native who immediately feels like a friend, according to many viewers?
Meticulously researched, France with Véro virtual tours offer a blend of history, architecture, and scenes of daily French life. Expect lively commentary, no loud music or crazy camera moves! I never rush as viewers enjoy sights and stories.
In the mood for some armchair travel until your next trip? Head to France instantly and tour with Véro on YouTube . Over 200 guided walks around Paris and the rest of la Belle France await. That's hours of virtual travel fun and it's all free!

You really brought St. Jean de Luz (Basque Country) to virtual life for me. You expertly mix historical background, architectural details, and the joie de vivre of the local community for us. Merci, as always, Véro!

History, culture, language and food all presented by a knowledgeable English-speaking French native who allows us to travel with her. Goodness, what’s not to like? Merci for all of this and for making 2020 more positive! (…) For many of us who are eager to visit France again, your content provides so much enjoyment (plus an ever increasing travel bucket list!).
