Private Half Day Latin Quarter Left Bank Landmarks Morning Walking Tour
Guests spend the morning strolling through the lively Latin Quarter (or Quartier Latin). This part of Paris earned its name from the practice of teachers and students speaking in Latin until the French Revolution in 1789. The artistic heart of Paris, this neighborhood houses the old university area and various iconic monuments. It was home to artists and writers like Delacroix, Sartre, and Hemingway. This is also where literary giants like Voltaire, Victor Hugo, and Émile Zola lie buried. This private tour can be fully customized to suit the tastes and interests of the guests. In the morning, they are picked up from their hotel for a walking tour of the landmarks along the Left Bank. They can visit the Sorbonne, the Pantheon, and the Luxembourg Gardens; or tailor their walk to savor the neighborhood’s ‘joie de vivre’. Accompanied by a local guide, there are many hidden gems to be discovered! Guests can stroll through the bohemian streets, before ending their walk at a central location.
