A Day of Exploring Black Paris

We were visiting Paris for 4 day weekend. We wanted to see the Louvre, the Effiel—Summit, the Arc De, Triomphe, and see Jill Scott. Beyond that—-I wanted to see, stand, hear, and learn about the stories about literary icons from my Black American History, understand the diaspora and its expansion in Paris from Africans all over the word, the impact of wars and slavery and its effects on our communities’ placement and displacement, plus enjoy and patronize a variety of stores that impact our access to literature and knowledge, also fashion exploration, and small business ownership from my lens from a well educated, community oriented, everyday and seasoned professional, and chill /laid back but a true business man, and tour partner from start to finish—Knight. This tour checked off my boxes of Exploring Us in Paris. I would have enjoyed an extra day with Knight to explore more depths of Paris like Josephine Baker and more cultural France artists or beyond that represent our culture—young and old. I know that I would not be disappointed. We also enjoyed our tour with some amazing women of the African diaspora from the United States of America, Cairo, China, Canada, Bahamas, Zimbabwe, and the list goes on and on. Touring with these beautiful women was a blessing and a gift from above. It all happened because we booked a tour with Knight and his company. Community, connection, and education is a powerful elixer. Thank you Knight for the care, awareness, expertise, humor, and good energy and vibes that you brought to us. I pray and hope that continues for you and your team.This tour was worth its value and then some.

We were extremely lucky to have Nite from Afronomadik as our tour guide. He taught each of us incredible and insightful lessons on French Black history. The experience of being able to meet and connect with the incredible arisans including Peulh Vagabond and Les Deux Magots all with a profound legacy of survival and endurance was remarkable. Everyone was so welcoming and hospitable it made for a life changing experience - so Thank You 🙏🏾

AWESOME TOUR Knight exceeded our expectations. He was personable, knowledgeable compassionate and patient (we had a person who had a hard time walking) We had a group of 12 and each one said it was the highlight of our European experience. Thank you Knight and I’m sorry I almost knocked you off the Metro😌😊. Blessings 🙏🏿

If you want to see and hear about a Paris you won’t get on standard tours, book THIS tour. Our guide, Knight, did an amazing job of guiding our group around the city through various neighborhoods on the Metro. He’s a history scholar with vast knowledge of Black/African culture and communities in Paris and he shares it through memorable stories. We sampled delicious food and drinks at various restaurants and we had the opportunity to shop at black owned stores.. Knight is personable, patient and his unique tour was the highlight of our trip. It’s well worth the cost in terms of information and perspectives learned and memories made.

Amazing experience, knowledgeable guide, learned so much and ate good too! 6 hours flew by and I enjoyed every minute! Highly Recommend!

This was a wonderful tour! Tour guide, Knight, was knowledgeable, personable, and professional. He took us to places off the beaten path of usual spots. We walked where famous blacks have walked, ate where famous blacks have eaten and learned history that we had not known - including the black Mona Lisa! The food was delicious and the pace was just right. This was my favorite tour of our trip. I highly recommend it. Just make sure you wear comfortable shoes!

I spent a beautiful day Exploring Black Paris 🇫🇷🖤 with an incredibly informative guide, Knight! What an unforgettable journey through the history, culture, and contributions of the African Diaspora in Paris.

Our tour guide, Knight, was amazing! He rendered us a wealth of knowledge of the Black cultural history in Paris! The walking tour gave us the opportunity to experience and taste our Black culture! He was very friendly, very outgoing, and very personable! We were able to see a side of Paris that we would’ve never known existed! From, Josephine Baker being a spy for the French to Dr. Martin Luther King visiting Paris, several times throughout his life! Thank you Knight for an unforgettable walking tour!

My tour was extraordinary! Thanks to a larger group cancelling, I ended up having an unexpected 1:1 tour with Knight, and all I can say is thank you! We started with warm whispers of the Parisian journeys of infamous African-American writers, before walking in the footsteps of figures like MLK and Marcus Garvey, with Knight bringing the Black experience of that era to life through stories and history along the way. After weaving through Paris on the Metro, we arrived at the Moulin Rouge, stopped by the former residence of the iconic Josephine Baker, and finally made our way into the hustle and bustle of the 18th/19th arrondissement. We finished with a delicious Malian meal and a complimentary hibiscus drink. Such a memorable, intimate and beautifully told journey through Black Paris. 🖤

Paris is very overrated but luckily we booked this tour which was the highlight of our entire trip. Knight was very engaging and welcoming. We met some other amazing people from the States and really understood the depth of black/African diaspora culture.
