Destaques

This tour is an immersion in the literary and philosophical past of Paris’s celebrated Latin Quarter as well as the history of the neighbourhood that goes back to Gallo-Roman times. Your guide will be a local expert—a graduate of The Sorbonne in philosophy who also lives in the neighbourhood. In the space of a short time, key periods from the 2000-year history of the Latin Quarter come alive. It all starts with a lively exchange over coffee: you will meet with your guide at a charming café on an Ancient Roman road just steps away from where René Descartes would live on his stays in Paris. After a short introduction and some time to get to know one another, guests set out to explore the hill that includes the Panthéon, The Sorbonne and the childhood haunts of Jean-Paul Sartre, the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés and more. Prepare to be completely immersed in the history of Paris!

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.
