Le Marais: Walking Tour

Join a guided tour to explore Renaissance mansions mingling with modern Paris

Combining centuries of history, splendid architecture, world-class museums and art galleries, and an amazing restaurant scene, Le Marais neighborhood of Paris is at your fingertips. Spared from the massive renovations of 19th century Paris, Le Marais retains the old-world charm of narrow streets, quiet courtyards, and beautiful medieval and Renaissance mansions. Visit the traditional Jewish Quarter for some of the best culinary samples in the country – you can find everything from flaky pastries to crispy falafel plated up at any one of many cafe terraces. Listen to your guide tell you tales of jousts, love triangles, treason, and revolution of the past – which isn't to say the Marais isn't modern! Discover fashion-forward boutiques alongside hip gay bars and night clubs as you make your way through the dynamic, yet historic, Marais neighborhood.
