Imagine walking through a garden above the streets

Published on Aug, 2023

We so enjoyed this walk in a garden two floors above the streets of Paris. It starts close to Opera Bastille and for at least a mile and half you walk through neighborhoods with the Paris streets below you. The gardens are wide enough so that it did not feel crowded despite walking with Paris apartments sometimes to both your left and right. It is so cool and better than the Highline in NYC.

Wonderful off-the-beaten path tour with a well-loved local

Published on Jun, 2022

We enjoyed a tour of the Bastille area and the Aligre Market with Solene. She helped us select a tour that matched with our interests and was manageable and enjoyable for our multi-generational group. We visited local shops, tasted chocolates, pastries and other delicacies, and learned a lot about the history and culture of the area. We went into shops and down little alleys we would never have discovered on our own. It felt like a wonderful "off the beaten path" tour with a well-loved local. Her tour was one of the highlights of our time in Paris. We took several tours from individual guides highly recommended on Tripadvisors, and Solene stands out as the best of the bunch. Highly recommend!
