Île de la Cité and the 1st Arrondissement


Start your tour on the Île de la Cité – the historic heart of the city. Learn about the history of Notre Dame cathedral and discover the stories behind the iconic Sainte-Chapelle and the Conciergerie- once a prison where Marie Antoinette was held before her execution. You will cross the famous Pont Neuf and learn about the bloody and dark history of Paris through the middle ages. We cross onto the Right Bank and journey through the Louvre courtyards whilst seeing some hidden gems. Find evidence of Napoleon and Louis XIV’s contributions to Paris before finishing the first part of the tour at the Tuileries Garden. On the way we will stop a local Parisian café for a morning coffee and croissant.

Eiffel Tower


You will take a Metro ride to the Trocadero where you will catch arguable the most spectacular sight of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Great for photo opportunities and you will also learn about the history of the tower. We will walk towards the tower and you will be given time to get some atmospheric snaps from underneath it and in the streets nearby. From here we will take the RER to the Latin Quarter.

Latin Quarter


Walk in the footsteps of Hemingway or Emily in Paris though this amazing neighbourhood. Home to the Sorbonne and the Panthéon, it is steeped in history. Stroll the cobbled streets and see evidence of the birth of the city Paris- from its Roman ruins through to it’s early churches. There are some real hidden gems and stories here. You will be given some recommendations for lunch and will have some free time to explore the atmospheric area around Place de la Contrescarpe.

Montmartre


Finish your day in one of the most beautiful neighbourhoods in Paris. You will wander the cobbles streets and make your way up to the iconic Sacré-Cœur Basilica which affords spectacular views across the whole of Paris. You will discover a vineyard, see artists paint in the Place du Tertre and learn about the artistic, bohemian and sometimes bloody history of this ‘village’ within Paris. You will stop for an alcoholic or non-alcoholic drink that is included in the ticket and you will be given a metro ticket to take you back to the city centre from the deepest Metro station in Paris.
