Let’s take a walk…

Join me on the Extraordinary Paris walking tour. I’ll tell you the stories behind three groups of people: the Royals, the Revolutionaries, and of course, the Rebels. The rebels are the remarkable people making history behind the scenes, the lesser-known lives that changed the world and made Paris what it is today. By the end of the tour, you'll understand that the secrets are not always hidden and the highlights are not always obvious. I will show you why you dream of Paris—and it's going to be a blast.

The Extraordinary Paris walking tour is beautifully curated to highlight major monuments through inspired storytelling. Discover centuries of underground booksellers, madman urban planners, the cooks who created the cafes, the artists who called them home, and the people who threw the biggest party the world had ever seen—the World Expo of 1900. I will show you how a medieval city without a sewer system became the global capital of art and refinement.

At the end of the tour, I'll drop you off in the historic "stomach of Paris" for a well-deserved lunch on the rue Montorgueil market street. You will walk away with a surprising perspective on Paris and a lot of fun stories to tell your friends back home.
