Tour description

Through my eyes as a Parisian in love with my city, I invite you to discover a thousand and one anecdotes about the Latin Quarter and Paris. And most importantly: have a great time on my tour. Time will fly! Whether you're passionate about literature or history, have the soul of a revolutionary student, or are fascinated by the rhythm of the nights in the vaulted caverns of jazz clubs, your thirst will be quenched as you walk through the streets of this neighborhood.


An entertaining tour with interesting and entertaining stories about Paris's legendary Latin Quarter. During this two-hour tour, we'll travel through the history and characters who animated this area of Paris located between the 5th and 6th arrondissements. Together, we'll discover Saint Michel Square , the ruins of Cluny , the Sorbonne , the Pantheon and many other fascinating places in this neighborhood, merging with the hectic pace of the inhabitants of Paris and its student life.

Your photos with the book makers along the Seine will bring Paris back to your memories for years to come. Browsing a book on the terrace of the Café de Flore, some postcards bought at a kiosk, a glass of water quenching your thirst from a Wallace fountain, meeting Shakespeare , communicating in Latin with students from another era in front of the Sorbonne , or demonstrating in the middle of May 1968 shouting "be realistic, demand the impossible," a date on the Place Saint-Michel... Perhaps the beginning of a love story.
