Secret and Unusual Paris

If you want to experience secret Paris without breaking the bank, our 1.5-hour walking tours are the perfect gateway. The Stroll through the Covered Passages (starting from 14,50 €) will delight 19th-century architecture enthusiasts, while the Secrets of the Louvre Facades (14,50 €) decode eight centuries of royal symbols in the open air.

For a more mysterious atmosphere, opt for the Freemasons Tour (14,50 €) or the Guided Tour of Père-Lachaise (14,50 €). Urban art lovers will prefer the Street Art at Butte-aux-Cailles (14,50 €), and heritage enthusiasts the Notre-Dame: Mysteries of Its Reconstruction tour (14,50 €).

Do you love solving puzzles? Two formats are available depending on your adventure preference. Mazarin and the Guardians of the Secret (18 €) is a self-guided escape game in the real rooms of the Richelieu Library: choose it for an indoor immersion, in a team of 3 to 6 players, in an exceptional heritage site.

If you prefer fresh air and movement, The Prisoner of the Bastille (16,50 €) turns the streets of the revolutionary district into a life-sized playground for 2 to 2.5 hours. More competitive and ideal for families or friends aged 12 and up, this treasure hunt with a roadbook and final ranking brings groups together better than a classic tour.

Access what 99% of visitors will never see: that's the promise of our backstage tours. Sports enthusiasts will hesitate between The Stade de France Backstage Tour (17 €), with its French team locker rooms and player tunnel, and The Roland-Garros Backstage Tour (19 €), the temple of clay courts with a fully accessible PRM route.

For a more institutional exclusivity, The UNESCO Backstage Tour (20 €) opens an international enclave with masterpieces by Picasso and Calder. And for a rare state craftsmanship, the Gobelins Manufactory Tour (17,50 €) places you face-to-face with weavers at work.

The Distillerie de l'Arbre Sec, nestled in a cobbled courtyard near the Louvre, is a haven for foodies. For a memorable experience, the Gin Distillation Workshop (110 €) lets you leave with your own 70 cl bottle. Shorter and more accessible, the Distillery Tour and Tasting (30 €) remains an excellent introduction.

For pairings, choose according to your tastes: Whisky & Chocolate (95 €), French Spirits & Cheeses (95 €), Teas & Cheeses (95 €) or the Creation of a Scented Tea Blend (95 €). For families, the Living Cheese Museum (20 €) and the grand Food Tour of Île Saint-Louis (105 €) complete the gourmet selection.

Want to make a mark on a birthday or a romantic outing? Aura at the Invalides (18 €) transforms the Dome of the Invalides into a theater of lights after it closes to the public. For 50 minutes, 360° video mapping and orchestral music enhance Napoleon I's tomb and Charles de La Fosse's frescoes.

This is the experience to choose for an exceptional evening under a 90-meter dome, accessible only by online reservation. Not recommended for children under 5 due to visual and sound effects, it is nonetheless very enjoyable for families beyond this age, and remains a particularly spectacular gift.
