Description

We are local guides from Paris, not transplants. We introduce you to the Paris that we love.

Our tours are intimate by design, so we stay engaged and attentive to everyone individually. Solo travelers especially feel at home with us.

Join "Places Parisians Love" to discover Paris through the places locals return to again and again. Iconic landmarks from quieter angles, hidden royal gardens, elegant galleries, cherished spots, and what these places mean to Parisians today.

Your tour begins at Palais Mazarin, the beautiful yet overlooked landmark in central Paris. From there, your guide leads you on a 90-minute walk through some of the places Parisians cherish most: Galerie Vivienne, Palais Royal, Place Colette, and the Louvre from an angle most visitors never discover.

This tour is for travelers who prefer experiencing a city over simply ticking it off.

Hot weather comfort:
On hot days, we adapt our routes, stay in the shade whenever possible, make regular water stops, and provide hand fans for guests.

Great little surprise!

I booked this tour not really knowing to expect given that I had been to Paris a few times before and done other walking tours. But this tour was a great little surprise - my guide was super knowledgeable and funny, it was a very pleasant experience despite the heavy rain on the day. I'd highly recommend it :)

One of our favourite walking tours by far

We recently took a free walking tour of Paris’ hidden gems, and it was one of the best experiences we’ve had. Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and made the tour incredibly interesting and engaging. They shared a range of fascinating facts that went well beyond what you can find online. From quaint alleys to lesser-known historical and artistic sites, every stop was enriched by the guide’s insights and enthusiasm. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore the unseen side of Paris! Definitely one of the best walking tours we’ve done.
