Essential Paris Accessible Guided Tour
The Left Bank was home to some of the greatest authors and artists in history: Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, and more.
During this 2.5 hour accessible Paris guided tour, you’ll explore the Left Bank as well as the Ile de la Cité island in the middle of the Seine River, home to Notre Dame Cathedral. The entire route is step-free, and the tour guide can push a manual wheelchair if needed. The tour does not include interior visits but we suggest you visit the Notre Dame Cathedral prior to your tour as this is also the meetup point for the tour.

– Accessible tour routes confirmed to be wheelchair accessible (no steps or curbs)
– 2.5 hour guided walking/rolling tour of Paris’ Latin Quarter and Left Bank
– Lively commentary by your local Parisian tour guide

Accessibility Description
I gave the Essential Paris Accessible Guided Tour a 5 Star Sage Accessibility Rating (our highest rating) because it involves a step-free tour route and the tour guide can assist pushing a manual wheelchair.
The tour route consists of fairly flat ground and has been designed to avoid cobblestones present in the Left Bank as much as possible.
The Essential Paris Accessible Guided Tour avoids all stairs by using routes with wheelchair ramps where necessary.
This accessible guided tour in Paris covers Parisian history spanning from the middle ages (represented by the Medieval Hôtel de Cluny shown on the left), through the French Revolution, to modern times (represented by I. M. Pei’s pyramid shown on the right).
The Essential Paris Accessible Guided Tour covers the historical sights on the Ile de la Cité like the Notre Dame Cathedral (shown on the left). It also includes a walk/roll through the Latin Quarter, which was named after the Latin language studied during the middle ages at Sorbonne University (shown in the photo on the right). Wheelchair accessible routes are used throughout the tour.
