Paris: Tour with Private Guide – Paris, France

EXPERIENCE:

Meet your private guide at a centrally located meeting point, such as your hotel or a public square. After introductions, talk to your guide about your interests and preferences to customize the tour to your liking.

Begin your tour by traveling to the heart of Paris – Île de la Cité. You’ll visit the iconic Notre-Dame Cathedral, one of the city’s most recognizable landmarks. From there, your guide will point out other landmarks of the island such as the Conciergerie, once a palace and now a prison.

Next, wander to the Right Bank of the Seine and explore the charming Marais district. As you walk down the cobblestone streets, your guide will reveal historical detail of the area as well as showcasing famous sights including the Place des Vosges, one of Paris’ most elegant squares.

Continue on to the charming Saint Paul neighborhood. The area is known for its amazing street art, although in places it is also still possible to see evidence of Medieval Paris. You’ll also notice beautiful mansions from the 17th and 18th centuries along the way.

The tour also includes a stop at the Pompidou Center, one of the best examples of modern Paris. The center is home to a modern art museum, but you can just explore its unique architecture and ethos right on the street in front of the building.

Another important stop along the way is the vibrant Les Halles district, the markets and shopping center of Paris in the Middle Ages. Nowadays it is a vibrant, bustling part of the city that has something for everyone.

Finally, wrap up your tour in the historic Place de la Bastille square, location of one of the most significant events in French history. Your guide will share with you the significance of the square as well as help you navigate your way to the next destination if desired.

This itinerary is just a suggestion; your tour will be fully customizable based on your interests and preferences. Your guide will provide insight into the history and culture of Paris along the way, and can also offer recommendations for restaurants, shops, and other attractions in the area.
