A Day of Exploring Black Paris
6 hours across Paris — moving through the neighborhoods, cafés, markets, and cultural spaces that tell a different story about this city. An immersive day built around Black history, culture, and contemporary Parisian life, led by a guide who lives it.
What You’ll Experience
Les Deux Magots — Saint-Germain-des-Prés
The day starts here. Breakfast included — and the context that comes with it. This is where Baldwin wrote, where Wright held court. It still carries the weight.
Présence Africaine — Quartier Latin
The Pan-African bookstore and publisher founded in 1947. One of the most important cultural institutions of the 20th century, still operating. Worth the stop.
La Rhumerie
Caribbean institution since 1932. Founded by Joseph Louville from Martinique, still run by his family. A stop that goes deeper than it looks.
Pigalle — Black Montmartre
The jazz era lived here. Josephine Baker, Harlem Renaissance energy that crossed the Atlantic. The neighborhood still carries traces of it.
Goutte d'Or / Château Rouge — Little Africa
Markets, textiles, Afro-Caribbean food, community. One of the most dynamic neighborhoods in Paris today
BMK Paris-Bamako
Where the day ends. West African cuisine bringing together Mali and Senegal in the 10th arrondissement. The food matches the day.
