Tour Island of the Cite and Latin Quarter the Soul of Paris

I suggest you take a walk tour together to discover the magical threads with which the history of this iconic city was woven.

It tells the founding myth of Paris, that on Île de la cite it all began…. that is a part of the History that everyone tells. But this Island is the SOUL of the entire city, and you will see that once this walk is finished, there is something almost SACRED and MAGICAL in its destiny.

I will accompany you to discover together the must-see points of your visit to Paris, with the benefit of telling you about its roots and thus understand the dynamics of the city: what makes the Cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris so special? and the Latin Quarter, because it is a fervent neighborhood with a varied and rich cultural and gastronomic activity?

We will visit the remains of the Roman baths where the Museum of the Middle Ages is today, and we will travel in time to understand the process of evolution of the Pantheon, until culminating in the city’s haven of peace, the Luxembourg Garden.

We will begin our walk tour at this historic meeting place

Our main protagonist here will be the Notre Dame Cathedral of Paris, a work of global importance, and a benchmark of Gothic architecture in France. The Cathedral hides many secrets and our task will be to tell you some of them.

Its name refers to the legend of Saint Julian the Poor or the Hermit, it is a small Church built on the ruins of a church destroyed by the Normans in the 9th century, later rebuilt in the 12th century, it played an important intellectual role during the creation of the University of Paris. Considered the oldest in Paris.

On our way to the places of interest that we will be visiting, we will pass through small streets of the Latin Quarter with many stories stored in its stones.

From the Northern Baths of the Roman period to the Abbey… until it became the Museum of the Middle Ages. You can still see remains of what belonged to the vaulted room of the Frigidarium.

From the Place de la Sorbonne, emblem of May ’68, we will evoke the main landmarks in the history of the University

Located at the top of Saint Genevieve’s Hill, the Pantheon, the fruit of a promise from Louis Foucault

A haven of peace and harmony, an Italian-style palace, the garden of the queens…
