History and romance intertwine beautifully along the banks of the Seine and in its picturesque streets. Inspired by Richard Linklater’s beloved film Before Sunset, this tour takes you on a cinematic stroll through Jesse and Celine’s Paris, retracing their passionate reunion after nine years apart. Starting in front of the legendary Shakespeare and Company bookstore, you’ll discover the iconic settings from the protagonists’ conversations, as well as hidden spots that even seasoned Parisians might overlook. You’ll criss-cross over bridges including Pont Marie and Pont de la Tournelle to Île Saint-Louis, where I’ll share its little-known history and charming nooks. As you make your way to St. Michael’s Bridge, where the tour ends, I’ll share intriguing stories and point out where several moments from the film unfolded. You’ll also see Tour de l’Horloge du Palais de la Cité, the city’s oldest clock, and Paroisse Saint Paul Saint Louis, where Jesse and Celine’s conversations turn deeper. On this 60-minute walk, you’ll have a chance to: • See the oldest tree in Paris while strolling through Square René Viviani, and discover what it symbolises about love • Find Fontaine Charlemagne and Fontaine Eginhard, two beautiful fountains that are cherished by locals • Take in Église Saint-Louis-en-l’Île, an overlooked church with fascinating artistic treasures • Step back in time with a stroll down Rue Éginhard, a little-known medieval lane that was first established in 1367 • Explore Le Village Saint Paul, a vibrant mecca for antique lovers Along the way, I’ll also recommend delicious stops for treats, cozy river barges that are perfect for drinks, and charming spots to pick up unique souvenirs. Join me to relive one of cinema’s most captivating love stories, explore Paris through fresh eyes, and ponder what love, fate, and connection truly mean.
