Overview

Bonjour! I’m Quentin
A Parisian passionate about sharing the everyday life of my hometown.

Let’s explore what life in Paris truly feels like today!
This walk connects 2,000 years of history with authentic local life.

Let me show you the places I believe you shouldn’t miss
- Notre-Dame Cathedral: Rebirth after the fire and Victor Hugo Connection
- Secret courtyards and medieval houses (somehow still standing).
- Fashion icon: Le Marais is the beating heart of Paris — where next year’s trends start today.
- Revolutions & WWII: look up! Cannonballs and bullet marks are still visible.
- Jewish history and memory in the heart of the city.
- Small cafés, local spots & authentic Parisian life

- Jokes included (free of charge)!
- Experience the city like a local, with insider tips

Join us, and you’ll be able to tell your friends you really visited Paris!

Meeting point

Parvis de l'Hotel de Ville / Square in front of City Hall

On arrival

Meeting Point:
In front of the main entrance of "Hôtel de Ville" (the Paris City Hall). We will meet on the large square (Parvis de l'Hôtel de Ville), I'll be standing right in the middle of the square.

How to spot me:
I'll be wearing a beret and holding a notebook.

Things to note

Since we meet just 5 minutes away from the cathedral, I recommend visiting the inside of Notre-Dame 30 minutes before our tour starts (it’s much quieter in the early morning!). Then, it's a short walk to join me at the meeting point.
