A brisk morning on Boulevard Marguerite de Rochechouart finds the group gathering outside Anvers metro, breath visible if it's cool, coffee cups steaming, and a licensed guide sketching a route across centuries of city life. The tour threads uphill into Montmartre where flagstones tilt beneath feet and artists’ studios recall Van Gogh and Picasso, then arcs down through Haussmann avenues to the iron lattice of the Eiffel Tower and the stone facades of the Louvre.
