Latin Quarter
The first half of the tour will be in this charming part of central Paris. One of the oldest parts of Paris, the Latin Quarter got its name from the Latin that was spoken by all of the La Sorbonne University students back in the days when Paris had one of the first international Universities in the world. You'll love cycling on its tiny back streets and learning its vibrant history.
Shakespeare and Company
The Shakespeare and Co. Bookstore has almost become a shrine to the written word. It's in a medieval building with wooden beams and plaster walls. It has shelves overflowing with the literature of all ages and sorts. You'll learn its fascinating history and then have free time to explore inside it and maybe meet some of the the authors who actually sleep in the store!
This tour is ideal for those who want to see Paris in a whole new way. We'll take you into the charming neighborhoods where locals go, show you secret courtyards, ancient ruins, and many more!

The BEST thing we did in Paris with kids! We did the AMAZING RACE Bike Tour of the Latin Quarter and Le Marais with Arnaud. It was fabulous! At every stop the kids had to do a challenge to win coins which kept them engaged and very happy. Our kids aged 8, 9 and 12 navigated the bikes and traffic fine and we were very well looked after by our amazing guide! Thank you, Arnaud, for such a memorable day in Paris :)

This was a great experience and a brilliant way to see the Latin Quarter and Le Marais. We had considered cancelling due to the extreme heat but so glad we didn't. Cycling was actually cooler than being on foot! Antoine was an brilliant guide-relaxed, informative, funny. He made sure we had plenty of stops at the water fountains and the pace was gentle. The length of the trip was about right but we were sad when it came to an end. The group size was perfect-I would not have wanted it any bigger.

It was a hot day in June so we booked it earlier in the day. Our guide “Teo” was very friendly, he was outgoing, intelligent, and very kind. We saw some beautiful areas around the Latin Quarter that we could have not covered on foot. Highly recommend to learn some history and culture.

This really was money well-spent. Lena our guide took us through undiscovered areas of the Latin quarter (I’d been there before and obviously missed a lot). The pace was moderate and unhurried and biking was a welcome relief from walking. I would definitely do this again.

Perfect way to get an inside look at parts of Paris a little less mainstream.

Theo was great! Small group so much better. Navigated us well through traffic, took photos for us and was really interested and knowledgeable about our route.

Our guide was fantastic. Great sense of humor, stories of history and culture. We were shown things you would never find on your own.

Old parts of Paris explored that would be difficult to find on your own. Our guide gave us a great history lesson. And did a great job.

Super guide Aaron perfectly and safely guided us through Paris and shared many interesting anecdotes. Even for people who have been to Paris many times, it is a cool experience to explore the city by bike.

Antoine is a really great guide - and a very friendly, personable guy too. He gave us just the right mix of history, culture and fun. Plus he speaks English with an accent ‘tres francais’! All told, a very enjoyable way to experience some known and many less well-known sights of Paris!
