The uniqueness of this tour is that you pass the places (houses) that are deeply linked with the persons and the songs that have touched your heart during your life. That makes this tour so special!

From his childhood the guide has been passionate about pop music, including the French music from the 20th century.

He knows the stories of Yves Montand, Serge Gainsbourg, Juliette Gréco, Aznavour and Piaf. And also other legends if there are requests to talk about.

The guide will play the songs he is talking about while he's walking with you through the street of Saint-Germain-des-Prés. That makes this tour even more lively.

Your personal guide will tell you his stories in English (and Dutch).
