From the Gauls and Romans to the present dayThis tour is entirely dedicated to the history of Paris—how it originated, expanded, and what it was like in different eras. We begin on the Left Bank—in the Latin Quarter. Here, we find landmarks that date back to the Roman emperors, such as the ancient amphitheater 🏟️ and the baths.
Next, we make our way through the Île de la Cité 🏝️—the cradle and heart of Paris ❤️. On this island, you'll find the Notre-Dame Cathedral ⛪ and the former residence of French kings 👑. Here, we'll learn about how Parisians lived during the "dark" Middle Ages ⚔️.
The final part of our tour takes us to the Right Bank, where the Louvre 🖼️ and the Opera 🎭 are located. We'll stroll through the places that once served as the "stomach" of Paris. We'll discover how the city was destroyed and rebuilt 🏗️, how life was during the Napoleonic era 👔, and enjoy a panoramic view from the rooftop of Paris's most luxurious department store 🏬
