Free Tour Latin Quarter: from the Roman Coliseum to the Guillotine

2,000 years ago, in this very place where we will begin the tour, thousands of people attended combats, executions, and shows in a Roman amphitheater that still stands today.

This is how it all begins. Nothing like the Paris most people imagine.  

Throughout this tour, you will discover how this neighborhood transformed from a city of brutal spectacles to becoming the intellectual heart where ideas that would change France forever were born.

📍 We will visit:

∙ 🏛️ The Arenas of Lutetia, the hidden coliseum of Paris  

∙ 🛒 Rue Mouffetard and the Place de la Contrescarpe, the oldest and most vibrant soul of the neighborhood  

∙ ⚖️ The Pantheon, where the Revolution turned its figures into eternal symbols  

∙ 📖 The Sorbonne and the chaotic life of the students  

∙ 🛁 The Cluny Museum, the bridge between Rome and the Middle Ages  

∙ ☕ Le Procope, where Voltaire and Robespierre changed history  

But this is not just a tour of monuments.

It is a story of gladiators, rebellious students, philosophers, and revolutions.

💡 Perfect if you're looking for more than a typical tour and want to discover the Latin Quarter in an original and different way.
