Wow, guys, you won't believe this tour! The Gay Marais Semi-Private Walking Tour totally blew my mind. If you're like me and enjoy uncovering hidden histories that often get swept under the rug, you're in for a treat!
Our guide, Adam, was such a cool dude, seriously. He was a total encyclopedia of knowledge but with a wicked sense of humor. It was like hanging out with your incredibly smart, slightly nerdy, and super engaging friend who has a knack for spinning a good yarn.
You're not going to believe some of the stuff Adam tells you about the French gay nobility. Seriously, I was like, "No way, that's crazy!" the entire time. It's a shame this part of history often gets "straight-washed" (Adam's word, not mine!), but I’m glad there’s someone like him out there revealing 100% true facts that have been hidden for too long.
The Place des Vosges and other key spots were amazing to see, sure, but the lesser-known locations Adam took us to were absolute game-changers. These tucked-away gems have so many stories to tell, and with Adam's knack for narration, it felt like we were living them in real-time.
What's so cool about this tour being semi-private is that it's super chill. It's like strolling around with a group of friends, which is basically what we became by the end. And Adam, being the rockstar that he is, made sure everyone's questions got answered. It was all very go-with-the-flow and laid-back, which I absolutely loved.
We capped off the tour in a local gay bar, a total cherry on top! Not only did it bring the whole historical journey full circle, but it also put us right in the middle of today’s vibrant LGBTQ scene. We had a great chat over complimentary drinks. Talk about an immersive experience!
So, in short, if you’re looking for a different spin on the usual Paris tour, do yourself a favor and check out the Gay Marais Semi-Private Walking Tour. Whether you're part of the LGBTQ community or just someone curious about this side of history, you're gonna have a blast. And tell Adam I said hi!
