Itinerário

1. We start the tour in the heart of the Left Bank's bohemian quarter. We discover his early days before arriving in Paris. Then we will see Hemingway's1st flat - a cold water flat with no running water, shared toilets in the hallway & a mattress on the floor. Despite his poverty, he loved Paris & opened himself up to discovering a new city, a new life.

2. Next stop, the place where James Joyce finished writing his masterpiece novel Ulysses. The two men were good friends, perhaps a "Literary Odd Couple" given their differences !

   10 min

3. We will visit the original location of the famed bookstore, Shakespeare & Company, on the rue de l'Odéon. Hemingway was a close friend of the owner, Sylvia Beach, and he shared many happy memories of the store & the woman in his novel about Paris, A Moveable Feast.

4. Hemingway's last flat in Paris was located nearby - the rent was paid by his 2nd wife's family and it was far more posh than his previous digs. We will hear about his friendship with Fitzgerald & discover the behind-the-scenes story of his 1st novel, The Sun Also Rises. It was a divisive book, that cost him the friendship of several close acquaintances, but it catapulted him to fame.

   15 min

5. Le Select was popular with all the Lost Generation writers. We end the tour here. Guests can also choose to end the tour in one of the other famed 1920s cafés of Montparnasse (La Rotonde, the Dome, the Closerie de Lilas), at Harry's NY Bar near the Opera, or at the Hemingway Bar in the Ritz Hotel (advance notice required for this option because dress attire is obligatory to enter the bar). Drinks NOT INCLUDED in the tour price.

About Paris

Paris alia grandes avenidas e monumentos à beira do rio a esplanadas de café, coleções de arte de fama mundial e bairros que parecem aldeias.

O Sena atravessa o coração da cidade, passando pela Île de la Cité com Notre-Dame e a Sainte-Chapelle, pela longa fachada do Louvre e pelo Museu de Orsay, instalado na antiga estação de comboios. Rio abaixo, a Torre Eiffel ergue-se sobre o Champ de Mars e o Arco do Triunfo coroa a Avenida dos Campos Elísios.

Top-ranked sights in Paris: Louvre Museum, Eiffel Tower, 4th Arrondissement.
