You step out onto Boulevard du Montparnasse with trampling footsteps and cafe steam at your heels — the guide’s orange sign bobbing like a small lighthouse. Narrow sidewalks lead past brass-bedecked brasseries, theater marquees, and the stone-faced entrance to Montparnasse Cemetery where writers and philosophers lie in quiet company. The walk moves at a city-pace: deliberate, observant, and punctuated by stops to read plaques and taste local specialties.
