Overview

Discover the covered passages, hidden treasures of 19th century Paris.

With your game booklet enriched with cultural anecdotes, explore at your own pace these elegant Parisian galleries with glass roofs, mosaics and atypical shops, far from classic tourist itineraries.

The route will take you through the Verdeau Passage, the Jouffroy Passage, the Panorama Passage, the Vivienne Gallery and the Colbert Gallery, before reaching the gardens of the Royal Palace.

About fifteen puzzles combining observation, logic and historical discovery punctuate this immersive 2-hour experience, mostly sheltered.

An original and refined way to discover a secret Paris, with family, friends or group.
