• Chapelle de la Sorbonne - Start your exploration in the heart of Paris’s intellectual district at the historic Sorbonne. Established in the 13th century, the Sorbonne became a beacon of medieval scholarship and theological discourse, lending the Latin Quarter its name. Appreciate the Baroque exterior of the chapel, crafted under Cardinal Richelieu, and discover the university’s lasting impact on Parisian culture and life. This iconic site sets the scene for a journey through centuries of history.
• Collège de France - Take a moment to enter the tranquil courtyard of the Collège de France, founded in 1530 by King Francis I. Created to teach groundbreaking subjects like Hebrew, astronomy, and anatomy—often prohibited at the Sorbonne—it became a center for free thinkers and intellectual advancement. Your guide will explain how this Renaissance institution helped shape Paris’s identity as a city of ideas.
• Eglise De Saint-etienne-du-mont - Visit one of Paris’s most stunning yet lesser-known churches. This Renaissance treasure houses the shrine of Saint Geneviève, the patron saint of Paris, credited with saving the city from Attila the Hun (c. 406–453 AD), one of history’s most feared leaders — the ruler of the Huns, a nomadic warrior group from Central Asia who invaded parts of the Roman Empire in the 5th century.

Be amazed by Paris’s only remaining Renaissance rood screen, admire its detailed stained-glass windows, and view the tombs of literary and scientific greats like Pascal and Racine. The guide will bring the church’s stories to life during this extended interior tour.

• Arenes de Lutece - Travel back nearly 2,000 years as you explore this hidden Roman amphitheater—one of Paris’s oldest monuments. Once a lively arena for gladiator battles and public events, the Arènes de Lutèce recalls the ancient city of Lutetia, long buried beneath modern Paris. Your guide will recount tales of Roman life and explain how this site was uncovered in the 19th century.
• Luxembourg Gardens - Take a leisurely walk through Paris’s most exquisite garden, commissioned by Queen Marie de’ Medici in the 17th century and inspired by Florence’s Boboli Gardens. Admire the beautifully manicured lawns, fountains, and statues, while your guide describes how the Luxembourg Palace evolved from a royal residence to the French Senate’s seat. This serene setting offers a perfect opportunity to reflect on Paris’s evolution from monarchy to republic.
• Pantheon - Conclude your tour at the magnificent Panthéon, an 18th-century architectural marvel initially built as a church and later converted into a mausoleum for France’s most illustrious figures. Before entering, your guide will narrate how this neoclassical monument became a symbol of national pride during the French Revolution. Inside, visitors can marvel at Foucault’s pendulum, a captivating scientific experiment first installed here in 1851 to demonstrate the Earth’s rotation — a simple yet profound device that continues to fascinate viewers today. With your reserved ticket, you’ll then explore the interior at your leisure, visiting the tombs of luminaries like Voltaire, Rousseau, Marie Curie, Josephine Baker, and Victor Hugo.
