Trace Medieval Paris with a local
Discover the medieval heart of Paris on a walking tour led by a local guide. Explore hidden streets, ancient churches, and forgotten stories that reveal the city long before Haussmann and the boulevards.
Your journey begins by the iconic Notre-Dame Cathedral, the crown of Gothic architecture (currently under restoration). Hear tales of kings, queens, gargoyles, and the great fire — and discover secrets most visitors never learn.
Walk to the Conciergerie, once the royal palace of the Capetian kings and later the feared prison of the French Revolution — including Marie-Antoinette. Continue through medieval lanes to see Paris’ oldest tree (planted in 1601!) and stop at Odette, home of the best choux à la crème in the city — a delicious taste of Parisian tradition.
Cross into the intellectual heartbeat of the Left Bank: Saint-Germain-des-Prés, where philosophers, poets and jazz legends changed the world. Then visit the Panthéon, the monumental resting place of France’s greatest minds.
