Historical Central Paris + Latin Quarter
Highlights
Guided tour of the historical Heart of Paris, including the Latin Quarter
Description
After meeting your guide at 09h00 at Palais Royal, you will then be taken on a fascinating walking tour of numerous Parisian landmarks located in the Louvre area, St Michel and Latin Quarter.
Starting with Palais Royal and its garden and renowned Buren Columns, this work which has always courted controversy, you can make up your mind.
You will then head off to I.M.Pei’s iconic Pyramid, commissioned by President François Mitterand, another construction which initially caused controversy is principally made of panes of glass, it serves as the main entrance to the Louvre Museum.
Crossing the the Pont Neuf bridge (ironically the oldest existing bridge across the River Seine), we will walk past the very first Royal Palace in Paris: The Conciergerie, known morbidly as the last residence of Marie-Antoinette, where she was imprisoned for the last few months of her life before being guillotined. Your guide will then take you past the Sainte Chapelle, a 13th century Royal Chapel, with its magnificent stained-glass windows, so precious to the French patrimony that they were removed for protection during the second World War.
Passing via Notre Dame you will pass through the historic St Michel area and continue to the Latin Quarter (Pantheon and La Sorbonne) and Luxembourg Gardens, ending with a guided visit inside the St Sulpice church.
For clients staying in St Germain area (Hotels: Aubusson, Bel Ami, Relais Christine, Esprit St Germain, etc…) this tour can be provided ‘the other way around’ starting at St Sulpice Church and finishing at Palais Royal
