Hello! My name is Mohamed. I’ve been living in Paris for 4 years, in the 19th arrondissement (a neighborhood I’ve completely fallen in love with). I am passionate about travel, discovering new cultures, history, and electronic music. I am also a big fan of free walking tours, and always join one whenever I visit a new city!
Being a curious person, I love meeting new people, hearing different stories and experiences, and seeing atypical places and this is why I decided to create this tour. I am very excited to share the unique and rich history of my local up and coming Parisian neighborhood (the 19th).
I want to help you see Paris in a new, different way, by taking you through what used to be Paris' industrial and working class areas, and seeing their transformation to vibrant neighbourhoods where daily flourishes away from the center.
Mohamed is passionate and an excellent guide to an off-the-beaten-track part of paris. For all those that are interested in understanding the transformations a ‘real’ part of paris went through, its a must do!
Mohammed is enthusiastic and very knowledgeable about his part of town and conveys this in a charming and clear manner. We really enjoyed learning about the 19th arrondissement. Highly recommended!
I have been doing free walking tours in 20+ countries over the past few years and Mohamed is probably the most knowledgeable and engaging guide I’ve ever met. Having already seen the touristic parts of Paris, I wanted to learn more about this less known part of the city. And I LOVED it! The combination of fun facts and historical events was impressive. I would book it again in a heartbeat!
New unexpected take on the history of Paris in the 19 th, 20 th en 21st century!
