Departing from Place Saint-Sulpice
Ride through the historic neighborhoods of Paris

The tour begins at Place Saint-Sulpice in Saint-Germain-des-Prés. Moving in a small group with a local guide, you will explore the hidden corners of old Paris that are often missed by tourists and hear the history behind them. The flat route focuses on quiet backstreets with low traffic, making it easy for anyone to follow along comfortably, even if they aren't regular cyclists.

Cross Île de la Cité and Île Saint-Louis towards the Marais

After crossing Île de la Cité, head over to Île Saint-Louis, which has remained largely unchanged since the 17th century.

Cross over to the Left Bank of the Seine and pass by the cafes and galleries frequented by Parisians in the literary district of Saint-Germain-des-Prés. Around Odéon and Luxembourg, hear tales of kings, queens, revolutionaries, and Napoleon, and enjoy a break in a park loved by locals.
