Legends and mysteries that will amaze you, you will also enjoy the best-illuminated views of Paris on an amazing tour through the most enlightened night of Europe.
Paris, called the city of love, is known for its culture, art, fashion and romance. But it was not always so. France and Paris, in particular, have a long history of assassinations, executions, plagues and wars against the most corrupt monarchies. We will delve into this other side of the city, that dark and tenebrous side rarely seen in the so-called city of light.
The Free Tour Legends and Mysteries of Paris offers the most curious the opportunity to see this part of the city that will not appear in any other guidebook or tour. It is a unique opportunity to appreciate the dark underbelly of the Parisian city and learn of those who once loved, died and murdered here.
