What a day! - What a day! The tour of covered passages in Paris was like stepping back in time and entering a magical trip to hidden pathways filled with history, artisans, shops, restaurants and amazing beauty. We had no idea such gems were hidden behind the pathways and doors of Paris. The whole family loved this experience - both young and old. We were so sad to see the day end. We will be doing this again, because there is still so much to see!! Sebastien was such a great guide! We had a truly wonderful experience!
