Stroll along cobblestone streets, see the Place des Vosges, and pass by delightful cafes as you uncover the marvels of Paris’ 4th arrondissement. A historic district of rich architecture and elegant buildings, the Marais is a must-visit area if you’re looking for culture, charm, and heritage.

Begin your walking tour at the famous Notre Dame Cathedral, where you meet your guide and fellow travelers. Admire the elegance of one of the finest examples of Gothic style before heading to the enchanting heart of the Marais. Meander through winding lanes lined with exquisite boutiques and quaint coffee shops as you hear intriguing stories and tales about the area’s past.

Built by Henry IV, Place des Vosges is considered to be one of the most handsome squares in the country. Pause here and take a moment to appreciate the sophistication of classic French edifices from the 17th century. Explore stunning buildings that surround well-tended gardens before continuing to Place de la Bastille for a dose of history.

When you arrive, relive the French Revolution and learn how this square once housed the Bastille prison—which retained enemies of the King—up until the storming of the Bastille. Finish your day with a reflection at the Colonne de Juillet monument which honors the revolution of 1830.
