The Covered Passages of Paris are one of the city’s hidden treasures—elegant precursors to modern shopping malls, built in the early 19th century. Once numbering over 180, only about 25 remain, having survived Baron Haussmann’s sweeping renovations. On this tour, we’ll explore six of the most beautiful and historically rich arcades—perfect for a rainy day in Paris.

These passages were more than just shopping galleries—they were vibrant centers of social life and cultural exchange, frequented by writers, artists, and the fashionable elite. With their glass ceilings, ornate ironwork, and mosaic floors, they preserve the spirit of Belle Époque Paris.

As we explore, you’ll hear the fascinating stories behind their creation and legacy. After sampling the delights of Passage des Panoramas, the oldest arcade in Paris, you may want to return for lunch—or, take a short stroll to Galeries Lafayette for a modern shopping experience beneath its iconic Art Nouveau dome.

After exploring the first few covered passages, we’ll take a short stroll to Galerie Vivienne, one of the most beautiful and historic arcades in Paris. Built in 1823, it features exquisite mosaic tile floors, neoclassical décor, and a stunning glass canopy that fills the gallery with natural light. Once a fashionable meeting spot for 19th-century Parisians, today it’s home to elegant boutiques, bookshops, and wine bars—a perfect blend of history and style.

Paris Beyond the Postcards

We could not have asked for a better guide in Paris. We spent several days with Allison and from the very beginning, she struck the perfect balance of deep knowledge, engaging storytelling, and genuine warmth. Every neighborhood, landmark, and hidden corner came alive through her insights and experiences -- not just the history, but the culture, the nuances of what we were seeing. What truly set this tour apart was how thoughtful and tailored it felt. Allison adjusted seamlessly to our pace and interests, shared wonderful recommendations we never would have found on our own, and made even the most iconic sights feel fresh and meaningful. Questions were welcomed, conversations flowed naturally, and nothing ever felt rushed or scripted. If you’re looking for a guide who is passionate, personable, and deeply knowledgeable—and who will help you experience Paris beyond the postcards—look no further. This was a highlight of our trip and an experience we’ll remember fondly.

We were looking for something unique and unusual to do while in Paris. This was an eye-opening experience. Our good vibe guide took us to passageways that we would not have been able to discover on our own, even though they were hidden in plain sight. I would highly recommend for a life enhancing experience in Paris.
amazing experience

Allison was friendly, knowledgeable, answered all our questions and took her time without rushing us. She surprised us with a little French dessert at the beginning of the tour and we ended the tour at a coffee shop where we enjoyed a cup of coffee together. This gave us a chance to talk further about French culture and habits. I would give this 10 stars if I could!! We would not have known about the passages had it not been for this tour - so this gave us a starting point for more exploration!
