Paris Shopping and Hidden Passages Walking Tour

Step away from Paris’s familiar sights and explore the hidden shopping world tucked inside its historic passages. This slower-paced, intimate walk traces the arcades that flourished during the transition after the French revolutions, before department stores transformed the way people shopped.

Rather than a standard sightseeing stroll, this alternative tour offers a closer look at the city’s lesser-known commercial history. Along the way, your guide shares personal recommendations and advice for making the most of the rest of your time in Paris. Meet outside Cadet Metro station, line 7, in front of McDonald’s; the station has one exit and sits on the same corner as bus route 85.
