Description

Have you heard about the hidden covered passages of Paris? Behind the busy streets, these beautiful arcades with glass roofs date back to the 19th century and are some of my favorite places to discover in the city.

I’ll be happy to show you this charming and lesser-known side of Paris, where you can find old bookshops, art galleries, local boutiques, vintage shops, cozy cafés, and beautiful little details that are easy to miss.

We’ll explore some of the most fascinating passages, including Passage des Panoramas, the oldest covered passage in Paris, as well as Galerie Vivienne and Passage Jouffroy. Each one has its own character, stories, and hidden treasures.

The tour also includes a few filming locations from Emily in Paris, so you may recognize some familiar corners along the way.

There will be plenty of time to browse designer boutiques, discover unique bookshops and art galleries, take photos, or simply enjoy the atmosphere and stories of these beautiful hidden streets.

If you love discovering places beyond the usual tourist spots and want to experience a more charming, local side of Paris, you’re very welcome to join me on this tour.

Includes

  • Passage Verdeau
  • Passage Jouffroy
  • Passage des Panoramas
  • Palais-Royal Garden
  • Galerie Vivienne
  • Galerie Colbert
