Solex Guided Tour
Paris: Left Bank
- 3h
- Up to 10 people
- French and English
From €59
This is not your typical guided tour.
It's a ride.
Over three hours, you move through the landmarks of the Left Bank, but more importantly through everything in between. Riverbanks, side streets, atmospheres, the kind of details you only notice when you slow down. Our guides don’t recite dates. They share their Paris. The one they love, the one they live, the one that moves them. The Solex makes it all simpler, smoother, freer. You don’t go through the city, you flow with it. Our groups are intentionally international and intimate. We mix languages, cultures and perspectives. Because Paris is best when it’s shared.
- Vintage electric Solex ride
- Safe route, mostly on bike lanes
- Small and friendly group (up to 10 people)
- A blend of iconic landmarks and hidden spots
- Discover Paris with a passionate guide
The stops below are key landmarks along the route, the places you will recognize.
In between, your guide takes you elsewhere, through detours, quieter corners and unexpected pauses, everything you won’t find on a map.
Itinerary


The Solex is an iconic French two-wheeler, born in the late 1940s, somewhere between a bicycle and a scooter.
