Tour description

📚 Did you know that the Latin Quarter is the oldest area in Paris? This is where it all begins: the origin, the history, and the evolution of this great city.

Its name has a fascinating history. In the year 52 BC, the Roman town Lutetia Parisiorum was founded here, and centuries later, the University of the Sorbonne was born. For generations, this neighborhood was the meeting point for students and thinkers who spoke Latin; since then, the Latin Quarter breathes knowledge, art, and rebellion.

In this Free Tour of the Latin Quarter, we invite you to discover the most authentic and vibrant soul of Paris: hidden alleys, mythical bookstores, and monuments that encapsulate more than two thousand years of history.

We will visit churches of different architectural styles, Le Procope —the oldest café in the city—, the iconic Shakespeare and Company bookstore, the charming Luxembourg Gardens, and the majestic Panthéon, where some of the brightest minds in French history rest 🇫🇷

💜 An essential tour for those seeking to understand Paris from its roots, where history blends with university life, bohemia, and philosophy.

👉 Come with curiosity, leave with inspiration. Let's go together!
