Latin Quarter & Left Bank Tour. Small-Group Free Tour

FREETOUR.com says

Our Secret Traveller calls this free tour "the fundamental Left Bank experience...which examines both old and modern-day Paris". "joining my local guide for a tour of the most artistic neighbourhood in Paris, we explored from Sorbonne University all the way to the Luxembourg Gardens, learning about the student traditions and rites of passage, bohemian cafes, secretive alleys, casual Parisian fashion and got intriguing insight to local culture and history, as well as excellent local tips and hints for how to do Paris like a local. Highly enjoyable and worthwhile!"

Overview of the tour in Paris

This Left Bank walking tour explores Paris, where students and masters have perfected the art of student life for 1,000 years.

At Discover Walks, we take pride in giving you an authentic experience. On this tour, your guide will be a Parisian (not some expat!), and your group will be small (usually 10-15, with a goal of 22 max.)

On this free tour around Sorbonne University, you can be a student again. You will discover what inspired Picasso, Hemingway, Jack Kerouac, and Cyrano de Bergerac.

We explore the area around the Pantheon and the Luxembourg Garden.

We discover the winding streets and smoke-filled cafés (actually, most of us don't smoke anymore!) where Parisians grow up and come of age.

This Latin Quarter tour is an exploration of both old Paris and young Parisians.

The tour ends near the Pantheon. Actual location varies depending on the particular interests of you and other participants.

To see more on this free tour, we do not spend time going inside each building.
