Live the French Revolution in Paris
Step back in time to one of history's most dramatic chapters. Explore the cobblestone streets of Paris where the French Revolution unfolded. A private tour brings the stories of rebels and royalty to life.
Marie Antoinette's Final Days
The Conciergerie, a former royal palace, became a grim prison during the French Revolution. Its most famous prisoner was Marie Antoinette, who spent her last days here before facing the guillotine.
A French Revolution Execution Site
The Place de la Concorde, famous for its obelisk, has a dark past. During the French Revolution, it was known as Place de la Révolution, the site of the infamous guillotine where thousands were executed.
French Revolution & Parisian Food
The French Revolution wasn't just political; it transformed dining. As aristocratic households fell, their chefs opened the first public restaurants, making fine dining accessible to all, not just the elite.
