Walking Tours

Our walking tours will help you get to know Paris-- and its history-- better! Both faculty and professional guides will explore the Saint-Germain-des-Prés and Latin Quarter areas, showing you hidden gems and telling you the stories of the neighborhoods.

Some walking tours will have a French option (adapted for intermediate to advanced learners of the language).
