Stop At: Luxembourg Gardens, Rue de Medicis Rue de Vaugirard, 75006 Paris France

Built in 1612 by Queen Marie de Medici, Luxembourg Palace and its gardens were an exclusive royal estate that turned the neighborhood into a fashionable district for French nobility, and played a pivotal role in Paris’ development. Today it remains one of Paris’ most poised and tranquil green spaces, providing a wonderful break from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Listen to your guide explain the history of the gardens as you walk along the uniform hedgerows past flowerbeds, statues of former kings, queens and emperors, and stately arrangements of flora and fauna that showcase the classic French gardening style. Thousands of tulips embellish the display during the spring months.

We wanted a complete and in-depth tour of the Luxembourg Garden and that is what we got. The guide was very patient with our difficulty with stairs and was willing to answer all of our questions. No one else signed up, so we got her all to ourselves which was excellent. The only thing that was an occasional problem was that her English was here and there difficult to understand, but we simply asked again and it was fine.

A beautiful area of trees, flowers, ponds, tree groves of shade ,plenty of chairs and benches. Multiple areas in the sun to sit and relaxes well . No admission fee and a very pleasant way to spend an hour or a day .
