Creating memories in the Latin Quarter of Paris
Hello, my name is Aitana, I was born in Paris and I have always lived here. I am Franco-Spanish and since I was born I have had the Spanish culture rooted in me. I have a degree in History and I know my beautiful city very well. I would love to take you to learn more about the history and monuments of Paris, the city of lights.

Description
Through my eyes as a Parisian in love with my city, I invite you to discover a thousand and one anecdotes about the Latin Quarter and Paris. And above all, the most important thing: to have a great time on my tour. Time will fly by! Whether you are passionate about literature or history, whether you have the soul of a revolutionary student or whether you are fascinated by the rhythm of the nights in the vaulted caverns of the jazz clubs, your thirst will be quenched as you walk through the streets of this neighborhood.
An entertaining tour with curious and funny stories about the mythical neighborhood of Paris, the Latin Quarter. During the two hours of this tour we will travel through the history and the characters who animated this area of Paris located between the 5th and 6th arrondissements. We will discover together Saint Michel Square , the ruins of Cluny , the Sorbonne , the Pantheon and many other fascinating places in this neighborhood, blending in with the hectic pace of the inhabitants of Paris and their student life.
Your photos with the book sellers along the Seine will bring Paris back to your memory for many years to come. Browsing through a book on the terrace of the Café de Flore, postcards bought at a newsstand, a glass of water to quench your thirst in a Wallace fountain, meeting Shakespeare , communicating in Latin with students from another era in front of the Sorbonne or demonstrating in the middle of May 68 shouting “be realistic, ask for the impossible”, a meeting on the Place Saint Michel… Perhaps the beginning of a love story.
