Paris: Paris Under Glass – A Small-Group Walking Tour of Hidden Passages

Explore the city's beautiful covered passages, hidden galleries and historic shopping arcades while hearing the stories, secrets and little details that bring the old Paris to life.
There is another Paris hiding just behind its grand boulevards.

Away from the traffic and busy shopping streets, a collection of elegant covered passages invites you into a different world: beautiful glass roofs, historic shopfronts, little boutiques, old bookshops and details that tell stories of a Paris from another time.

We will meet at Place Colette, in the heart of the 1st arrondissement, and make our way to the oldest chocolate store in Paris, à la Mère de Famille, in the Rue du Faubourg Montmartre.

Along the way, we'll venture through the stunning Palais-Royal garden, and some of the most beautiful passages of the city, including the Galerie Vivienne, the Passage Choiseul, the Passage des Panoramas, the Passage Jouffroy, and the Passage Verdeau.

In about 2 hours, you'll find out all about the stories behind their architecture, the people who once visited them, and the fascinating role they played in Parisian life.

With a maximum of 8 participants, this is a personal experience rather than a crowded sightseeing tour. There is time to look around, ask questions, take photographs and enjoy the little details that are so easy to miss when exploring on your own.

And because much of the route takes place beneath historic glass roofs, this is a lovely way to experience Paris when the weather is cold or rainy.

Come curious, bring your camera, and discover a side of Paris that many visitors walk right past!
