Emma
Highly recommended Professional Tour Guide for the Museums of Paris
Speaks Perfect English & French
Emma holds qualifications in Art History from University College Dublin and La Sorbonne. Her innovative masters research focused on how Egyptian themes were used as propaganda in the public art of Napoleonic Paris.
One thing her research highlighted is that art, architecture and historical events don’t happen in a vacuum and it is only when you start looking at them in context that they really come to life.
She is a great story teller and communicator
Treasure Hunt in the Louvre
Emma has a passion for storytelling and so stories are central to the way she talks about history.
She is amazing with kids, she grabs their attention during her Treasure Hunts that she developed herself.
Kids learn better and retain the stories and the knowledge during the treasure hunts of the Louvre
I recommend her vividly for Treasure Hunts with Families !
