Trendy Marais: Free Walking Tour
FREETOUR.com says
Our Secret Traveller recommends this tour for "a fascinating sneak peek into one of Paris’ most elegant neighbourhoods". "This was a wonderfully alternative take on the Marais district, skipping the typical tourist landmarks and focusing more on authentic elements. We covered Jewish culture, architecture, fashion, and a little bit of everything. The guide is more than ready to give you local tips on where to find the best restaurants, bars, and shops in the area too for after your free walking tour".
Overview
We give you the tourist must-sees and also the Paris of the Parisians.
With "Trendy Marais", jump back and forth between past and present.
Walk along 400-year-old aristocratic townhouses, up-and-coming designer stores, and trendy parts of the city where Parisians like to hang out, show themselves, flirt, and shop!
Your guide will focus less on tourist landmarks and more on authentic details, sophisticated shops, private homes, and art galleries.
Depending on guests' interests that day, the tour adapts to requests and can focus more on Jewish culture, old architecture, fashion - or a bit of everything!
To see more on this free tour, we do not spend time going inside each building.
