In the Steps of Victor Hugo Tour
|
No character plays a larger role in some of his novels than the city of Paris, and few writers have left such an impact on the character of the City of Lights.
This tour of Victor Hugo's Paris drives you, in a comfortable sedan driven by your personal bilingual guide (and one  intimately familiar with Victor Hugo's writings), to his city, the Notre Dame
which his novel did so much to save from destruction, to his sewers (transformed as they were by Haussmann), to his 21 other Paris neighbourhoods and places where he either lived, frequented, or about which he wrote in his novels.
It will visit his 1832-48 home at the place de Vosges in the Marais, where we will visit the apartments he occupied (which have been recently refurbished) and where there is an extensive collection of his manuscripts and drawings. We will also pass by his last home on the Avenue Victor Hugo, as well as visit the Rodin statue of him at the near-by intersection of Henri Martin avenue. We continue by passing on to the Arc de Triomphe, where we will visit an exhibition relating to his funeral.
Finally, while trying to imagine the over two million Parisians who lined the route in homage, we will trace his last voyage to his resting place at the Pantheon.
