Continuing through the Bastille square, demystify its legendary prison and the famous Bastille Day. Escape from city traffic and stroll along the bike-friendly path that lines the Seine River and get ready for a nice drink stop along the water. Next, discover the left bank. From the world’s oldest company, which is 1154 years old, head towards the literary Saint Germain des Prés and meet Parisians’ preferred cafés and art galleries. See how the kings, queens, revolutionaries, and Napoléon mixed in a ballet that ended in blood in Odéon and Luxembourg.
After resting in the left bankers preferred garden, reach the Sorbonne University and the Latin Quarter with its antic roman empire ruins mixed with the most dangerous middle-aged back streets.

The guide was really interesting and funny and nice! The bike tour allows you to discover very different neighborhoods with relevant explanations each time. The guide also gave us advice and addresses for the rest of our stay. It was great!
Visite très intéressante et à notre rythme avec notre guide Clément qui a été très agréable. Outre ses connaissances historiques, il a pu partager avec nous certains points de vue en tant qu’habitant de Paris ce qui rend l’expérience d’autant plus concrète. Merci à lui pour sa bonne humeur et sa disponibilité, ma mère et moi avons apprécié ce tour !
Unser Guide Christian war sehr engagiert und wusste viel über Paris. Die Fahrradtour war interessant und wir haben viel gesehen und gehört. Ganz vieles war neu für uns … obwohl wir schon öfters in Paris waren. Wir können die Tour und den Guide wärmstens empfehlen.
