How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
See the playground for Paris's most trendy – the crooked, cobbled, historical lanes that are alive with bars, restaurants, vintage shops, and jewelry boutiques. But there's more to Le Marais than gorgeous "I-woke-up-like-this" locals queuing for pita at L'As du Fallafel.
With your host to lead the way, you'll explore its thriving art scene at upmarket galleries, amble through Musée Picasso, and visit iconic sites like Rue de Montmorency, where Nicolas Flamel's house – the oldest in Paris – stands.
Stumble across the district's hidden secrets, like the utterly picturesque Passage de l'Ancre, where a quaint boutique sells umbrellas and walking sticks, and relax with a coffee or a glass of wine at a classic bistro. Très chic.

I told my guide my main interest is architecture. Abi made a point of focussing on architecture for me.

Our guide was remarkably knowledgeable about the history, architecture and culture of Le Marais. She reached out before the trip to find out our personal interests and designed the tour around those interests.
