A Day of Exploring Black Paris
Paris, Île-de-France, France, Europe
$214.23
This is an experience gift voucher. The recipient will book the experience after
they redeem the gift voucher.
Overview
This experience goes beyond dates and landmarks to explore Paris through lived history, community, and presence. Rather than focusing on a single narrative, the tour connects African, Caribbean, Black American and diasporic stories across neighborhoods, showing how Black life has helped shape the city in visible and subtle ways.
The experience allows space for conversation, reflection, and context as we travel through areas most visitors never connect into a single story. From shops, restaurants, and landmarks, guests leave not just informed, but with a new relationship to Paris.
