Take a 2-hour walking tour in Paris with a private guide to gain insight into the history and culture of the Marais district, a trendy neighborhood with a rich past and plenty of great architecture to admire.
Templars, great kings, famous writers and rock stars have been the inhabitants of the most chic district of Paris: the Marais. Superb palaces, art galleries, trendy boutiques, bistros and elegant tearooms, but crossing the Marais means also diving into the great historical and artistic heritage of France.
The horrors of the Holocaust in the Museum of Judaism, the Europe's largest contemporary art collection in the Pompidou Center by Renzo Piano, the great palaces that now house the National Archive and museums. A neighborhood full of contradictions where you can meet on the same sidewalk the beefy bouncer of a gay club and a rabbi who calls to prayer.
We will pass under the elegant arcades of Place de Vosges and conclude our journey where the French Revolution began: the Bastille!
