Latin Quarter Guided Tour - Semi-Private
What your day looks like
Don’t blame us if, after our walking tour of the Latin Quarter, you decide to follow in the footsteps of writers like Hemingway and Fitzgerald and move here. Join us as we explore this charming and vibrant neighborhood. On this 2.5-hour tour, we begin at Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris before making our way through the lively streets of the Latin Quarter, uncovering the fascinating stories and history that have made this one of Paris’s most beloved districts. With small groups of no more than 12 visitors, you will enjoy a personalized and in-depth experience with one of our expert guides. From ancient Roman ruins to the prestigious Sorbonne University, the Latin Quarter best represents Paris’s 2,000-year history. Alongside its grand monuments, such as the imposing Panthéon, you will also discover iconic film locations from Before Sunset and Midnight in Paris. Literary heritage is everywhere, from the legendary Shakespeare and Company bookstore to stories of famous authors who once slept among its bookshelves. By the end of the tour, you may even feel inspired to write your own novel.
