Overview

Uncover the heart of Paris like never before on our exclusive small-group tour of Île de la Cité. With a maximum of just 8 participants, this unique journey unveils the city's hidden stories and historical treasures.

Our adventure begins in the vibrant Châtelet neighborhood, where we delve into the mysteries surrounding the demise of a French king. Strolling along the riverbank, you'll hear tales of a medieval castle and other captivating narratives, setting the stage for our island exploration.

As we step onto Île de la Cité, you'll be enchanted by the charming narrow streets of old Paris. Discover the authenticity of the city's historic core as your guide shares enthralling stories. And finally, the tour reaches its pinnacle as we stand in awe of the iconic Notre Dame Cathedral, a true masterpiece of Gothic architecture. This is an unforgettable journey through the heart of Paris, where history and culture come to life in the most authentic way.
