Bonjour.
Enjoy this immersive and entertaining SelfTour™ Paris La Cité GPS guided walk through the two fascinating islands in the center of Paris. The island of îIe de la Cité, which translates as “The Island of the City,” is where Paris began 2000 years ago, survived, matured and remains the place to find some of the most important treasures of the city, including Notre Dame Cathedral.
You may have seen the Eiffel Tower, Montmartre, and the Louvre, but you haven’t experienced the real Paris until you’ve explored La Cité and its charming sister island, Ile Saint Louis, which is filled with incredible mansions, quaint shops and charming cafes. Plus, you’ll explore the extraordinary Left and Right Banks alongside the Seine River.
