Galeries Lafayette Paris Haussmann
I waited and no one showed up! I would like a refund please! Can't believe I was early and wasted my precious vacation time for this non-existent tour!
An Interesting walk.
I found this walk both within and beyond the public spaces of the Galleries Lafayette very interesting. Our guide emphasised the ongoing development of the Galleries but recognised that this occurred within a historic context. The tour was led by a knowledgeable and pleasant host who was able to communicate the demands of this context very well. I found booking the trip online very easy and would recommend the tour.
Wonderful Experience!
What a wonderful tour! It felt like we were getting a private, behind-the-scenes look at one of Paris's fashion treasures. The history, architecture, design, and stories were fascinating, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. The only challenge was finding the starting location. Look for the Galeries Lafayette name above one of the main entrances on Boulevard Haussmann. We accidentally ended up at the back security office while searching for the tour entrance, but it turned out to be a happy mistake. The security officer was incredibly kind and personally escorted us to the correct location. By chance, he was also there when we left, so we had the opportunity to thank him again for his generosity. This is a fantastic experience that's a little off the typical tourist path, but absolutely worth adding to your Paris itinerary.
