About this experience
Marais is the most history-rich district of Paris. Dive into court intrigues, love triangles, and political gossip from the 12th to 17th centuries. The history of the Saint-Paul palace will fade away, but the porcelain teacup bought from a local bric-a-brac seller will remain. Just like the taste of the best eclairs in the city or a souvenir from the Christmas market. We will explore the city in various ways: immersing ourselves, tasting, observing, to take a break from the strong emotions evoked by the customs of the past.
Marais was once on the verge of being demolished, but in the 1960s it was preserved and turned into an open-air museum. Today, all the most interesting things in Paris - thematic clubs, concept stores, niche perfumes, trendy haircuts, coffee blends, and jacket styles - originate from here. During the tour, you will encounter historical mysteries, treasures, intrigues, madness, love affairs, betrayals, heroism, executions, and acts of vandalism that explain much of what you will see.
