Tour international and lesser known art galleries in the Marais:
- Private 2 to 3 hours tour

The Marais is full of galleries with new ones popping up constantly. Knowing what's on and what's worth seeing can be an art in itself. Let us make this easy for you. Together we will be exploring the Marais' internationally known galleries and lesser known courtyard spaces.
The Galleries will vary depending on gallery schedule and current exhibitions, but we will visit four to six contemporary galleries, the internationally known and hard to find courtyard galleries highlights.
For any art lover, a trip to Paris would not be complete without a visit to the mecca of the art world, Le Marais. The iconic neighbourhood is known for its museums, shops, historical buildings and art galleries. Our Paris Art Walks guides are working artists who will take you around to everything from the neighbourhood icons to the newest little spots and give you real and current insight into today’s gallery scene. With over 40 galleries to visit, there’s something for everyone and you’re bound to discover a new favourite.
We’ll start with a little introduction to the role of galleries, their history in the community and how the neighbourhood evolved. For each gallery we visit, guests will get a backstory of the gallery including the gallerists themselves. The work they tend to show and what’s showing right now. There might even be the opportunity to meet a member of the art community or the artist themselves.
What is truly special about a visit to this neighbourhood, is the range of styles and themes waiting for you to discover. From classic contemporary to today’s emerging artists. Paris Art Walks artist guides want to tailor this experience to exactly what you love and want to explore.
Our tours are prepared by and conducted by artists and art lovers just like you. If there is a style, movement, or gallery that you want to explore please let us know so we would love to tailor your tour to what inspires you!
