Paris, the City of Light, has a remarkably dark and stormy past. Before the city earned its reputation for culture, art, fashion and romance, it endured centuries of strife – gruesome murders, torture, and beheadings, political and social unrest, brutal monarchies and wars, not to mention terrible plagues. This tour will bring to life Paris's mysterious and often horrific past – its ghosts, legends and historic personalities. You’ll see both rarely visited and well-known sights in a whole new way!

Very much enjoyed the dark history tales with Sophia. She was knowledgeable, engaging, and a great story teller. Bring comfortable shoes as you do a bit of walking. We would do it again!

I had high hopes for this tour. Not that exciting. Left after an hour. Basically ghosted the walk. Maybe it got better.

He gave good information and was interesting. We had a free night and booked on a whim. We were happily surprised by what a great night it turned out to be. Highly recommend.
