Semesterboende i Hauts-de-France

Let's travel back in time to the year 1789, when France put an end to a Monarchy that had ruled for centuries… Did Marie-Antoinette really say « let them eat cake » and was Louis XVI a bad King? Why did the National Assembly that had just proclaimed the « Rights of Men » turn into a dictatorial government? Through pictures of France then and now on a slide show, we'll walk in the footsteps of the key figures such as Voltaire, Lafayette, Robespierre, Dr. Guillotin and more. We will discuss the turning points leading up to the Revolution and ultimately the demise of Louis XVI & Marie-Antoinette. You will see on a map of Paris where each event took place so you can visit them on your next trip :-) You will see exactly where the King, the Queen and many other high profile figures were executed with the Guillotine. You will understand why France went to war with the rest of Europe and relive the decisive events leading a young general to power: Napoleon! This experience is adapted for anyone who has no or little knowledge of the revolution, as well as those familiar with it and wish to explore it further. All questions are welcome :) **FEE IS PER PERSON** LANGUAGE: English LENGTH: Approx. 75 min based on Q&A. ANY QUESTIONS? Feel free to contact me :) MY OTHER ONLINE EXPERIENCES: Lafayette - Hero of two worlds; Rise of Napoleon; Fathers of the American Revolution in Par

Paris offers a lot of speakeasy bars for night owls. We will start the night at my favourite hidden gem in the 3rd arrondissement, we will spend about one hour here then head to the next bar which is a 6 minutes’ walk. Some of the bars have secret entrances so be ready for a fun night. The bars have amazing cocktails, beers, non-alcoholic drinks, good music and a good ambiance. There are plenty of secret bars and unfortunately we cannot explore all of them in one night. However, I will share with you the location of other secret bars which you can visit later.Please be advised drinks or food NOT included. Other things to note Experience time says it lasts 2 hours but you are welcome to stay at the bars as long as you like. If your preferred hour is fully booked, don't worry, bar fits a lot of people - send me a message.
