Overview
We will roam six passages from the Grand Boulevards to the Palais Royal.
True havens of peace, out of the tumult of the hectic places of the capital, you will discover the famous arcades in vogue in the first half of the 19th century. Their history, origin, and particularities will be explained to you. Why did they attract Parisians so much? Why were they later abandoned? Milliners' shops, curiosities, cane merchants, tea rooms, cafés, literary salons, places of pleasure, static ancestors of the cinema.
As they did before, you will stroll and appreciate these enchanted places. Take the opportunity for a unique visit, full of charm, off the beaten tracks from regular tourist places.
Changing the language for a slot that suits you better is possible. Don't hesitate to contact me. I can even go on tours in German or Italian.
