Paris Covered Passages Walking Tour plus Seine Cruise Option
Unearth the hidden treasures of Paris with ExperienceFirst as we guide you through the city's secret gems – the covered passages.
Our journey kicks off at the Galerie Vivienne, a neoclassical-style covered passage that has graced the city since 1823. From there, we'll venture to the Passage Choiseul, where over 600 feet of sunlit shops are nestled under a magnificent glass roof. Don't forget to glance down and admire the ornate tiled floor.
Our tour continues at the Passage des Panoramas, the very first covered walkway in Paris, constructed over two centuries ago.
Next on our journey is the Passage Jouffroy, a narrower passage adorned with glass and iron accents which even houses a quaint wax museum.
Our final destination is the Passage Verdeau, where antique dealers and vintage curiosities line the pathway. At each stop, your guide will unveil details you might otherwise overlook and recount the fascinating story of how these hidden passages became integral to Parisian fashion.
