Emily in Paris Circuit: Full Guided Tour

Want to step into the shoes of Emily Cooper, the young American who has recently arrived in Paris ? No problem. I’ve put together a list of 6 of the iconic locations where shooting took place so you can visit them for yourself and feel like you’re back in the series.

The offices of Savoir, the (fictional) marketing agency for which Emily works, are at 6 Place de Valois. Located in the heart of the capital, a stone’s throw from the Louvre and Place Colette, the square is home to the Grand Hôtel du Palais Royal as well as the Bistrot Valois, where Emily gets together with her colleagues at the end of the second episode and at various other times in the series. There is also an art gallery, which is entered from the adjoining street.

Leading straight off Place de Valois is the Jardin du Palais Royal, where Emily decides to take her first lunch break in Paris. It is here, while she is sitting near the fountain on a bench bearing the words Aujourd’hui, c’est demain et hier qui s’épousent [The present is a marriage of the past and the future] that she meets Mindy (Ashley Park). The two young women go on to become fast friends and spend a lot of time together as the series goes on. The art installation ‘Les Deux Plateaux’ (commonly known as Buren’s Columns), where Emily and Mindy take a selfie together, can be found in this garden. North of the Jardin du Palais Royal is the Michelin-starred restaurant Le Grand Véfour, where Emily tries (and fails) to get a table. It’s not the only Michelin-starred restaurant in the area: there is also the Restaurant du Palais Royal a little further on.

The Café de l’Homme is the place where the launch party for the release of the (fictional) Maison Lavaux’s new fragrance De l’heure is held. Located in Trocadéro inside the Palais de Chaillot (formerly the headquarters of the UN and NATO), the Café de l’Homme offers a magnificent view of the Eiffel Tower. In fact, the view is so spectacular it leaves Emily speechless. Several major Paris museums are to be found in the surrounding area: the Musée de l’Homme, the Cité de l’Architecture et du Patrimoine, the Musée Guimet, the Palais de Tokyo, the Palais Galliera and the Musée Yves Saint Laurent.

The advertising campaign for the new perfume De l’heure is shot on the famous Pont Alexandre III, an iconic Paris bridge opened during the 1900 Universal Exhibition, or world’s fair, and now a listed monument. It is on the terrace of the Bistrot Alexandre III on the quayside a short distance away that Emily has an argument with her boss Sylvie (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu) and their client Antoine (William Abadie) after stopping the shoot. Near here are the Grand Palais and the Petit Palais, together with the Avenue des Champs-Elysées, on one side, with the Hôtel des Invalides and esplanade on the other.

The Hôtel d’Evreux is a private mansion at Number 19 on the sumptuous Place Vendôme. It is in this location steeped in history that the (fictional) beauty brand Durée organizes an influencer event to which Emily is invited. The ultra-chic Ritz Paris is a few doors down, at Number 15. Place Vendôme is a Parisian square renowned for its high-end boutiques, especially jewellery stores. Connected to Place de l’Opéra via Rue de la Paix, Place Vendôme has featured in many films and TV series shot in Paris. It appears several times throughout Emily in Paris.

The Café de Flore, another legendary spot in Paris, was also once frequented by famous writers, philosophers, actors and designers, among them Ernest Hemingway, Albert Camus, Boris Vian, Jane Fonda, Brigitte Bardot and Yves Saint-Laurent. In the series, Emily spends an evening on the terrace of the café, where she meets Thomas. He tells her about the history of the Café de Flore and also mentions a neighbouring and equally popular café, Les Deux Magots. Both these iconic cafés are not to be missed when exploring the Saint-Germain-des-Prés district.
