- Place de la Contrescarpe - Our visit will start along the Rue Mouffetard, where Hemingway’s A Moveable Feast opens. We’ll make our way to the Pantheon and the steps where Owen Wilson is whisked away into the past in A Midnight in Paris. Also the apartment where Sartre lived as a child, The Sorbonne, the location of the original Shakespeare & Co and Saint-Germain-des-Prés…
- Complimentary tea and coffee
Engage in a journey through the intellectual and historical richness of Paris’s renowned Latin Quarter, reaching as far back as the era of the Gallo-Romans. The tour is facilitated by a local professional who not only graduated from The Sorbonne with a degree in philosophy but also resides in the very district being explored.
In a brief duration, significant epochs spanning the Latin Quarter’s 2000-year duration are brought to life. The adventure commences with an animated chat over a cup of coffee: your rendezvous with your guide will be at a quaint café, situated on a road dating from Roman times and a stone’s throw away from René Descartes’s lodging during his Paris stays.
Following a brief preliminary discussion and getting acquainted, participants embark on an exploration that covers the terrain of the Pantheon, The Sorbonne and the frequented spots of Jean-Paul Sartre’s boyhood, the hub of Saint-Germain-des-Prés and further. Prepare yourself for a profound dive into Parisian history!
