Saint-Germain-des-Pres

Meet outside the Café de Flore, the legendary café located in Saint-Germain-des-Prés. You’ll continue through the Rive Gauche, the intellectual nerve center of Paris and the stomping grounds of Lost Generation personalities like Gertrude Stein, Ernest Hemingway, and F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Le Procope

After visiting Oscar Wilde’s place of death, you’ll enjoy the charming cobbled streets of Saint-Germain-des-Près and discover where Benjamin Franklin and Voltaire had fiery philosophical debates with their contemporaries.

Odeon

30m

Continuing on to the Odéon area you’ll see the address where Sylvia Beach founded a legendary bookstore and artistic paradise called Shakespeare and Company. This shop no longer exists, but the spirit of its regular customers like James Joyce, Paul Valéry, and André Gide still lingers in this cozy cave of literature.

La Sorbonne

30m

Passing by the world famous University of La Sorbonne where Sartre taught existentialist philosophy, you’ll discover the Latin Quarter, the Panthéon where Hugo, Dumas and Voltaire rest in peace, and behind, the favorite places of Hemingway and Joyce that inspired the movie “Midnight in Paris”.
