Description

What's better than exploring Paris with your own legs? It's healthy, it's carbon-neutral, and it's a lot of fun! We can cover a lot of ground in a two-hour jog, with lots of breaks for storytelling and pictures. This scenic circuit explores all the iconic monuments that make Paris famous worldwide. You won't miss any must-sees and, what is better, you'll get to see them without crowds blocking the view, in the most beautiful light of the day. So what do you say about chasing sunrise at the running pace in Paris? We're taking charge of water, the perfect route and directions, good humor (ah, the runner's high...), and exciting stories. All you have to do is lace up your running shoes! Let's go?

Best way to explore a city!

Amazing running tour with great pictures! Jamison was an excellent guide. He not only gave us the history, but answered any question we had. He stopped and took great pictures of my husband and I. Highly recommend this tour!

Great way to see the city...

Great way to see the city and get a workout at the same time. It’s nice seeing Paris in the morning when you have most of the attractions to yourself as well. Highly recommend!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Run Run Tours – A Must-Do for runners in Paris!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Run Run Tours – A Must-Do in Paris! I had such an incredible experience with Run Run Tours in Paris! The guide (and owner) was phenomenal—she’s an ultramarathoner, incredibly knowledgeable, and super patient. It ended up being just me and one other runner from NYC (who was so nice and fun to run with), so the tour felt really personal. We covered about 8 miles at a relaxed pace with plenty of stops at major sights. She shared deep, thoughtful history along the way—you can tell she teaches tourism and history because she knows so much. It was genuinely impressive. Highlights included visiting a sparkling water fountain, an empty Louvre, and Trocadéro at sunrise. She even filmed me running into the empty Louvre courtyard, which my friends now laugh at saying I “paid someone to video me”—technically true, but it was her idea and ended up being such a cool, memorable moment! I usually go for runs solo when I travel, but this was such a better way to explore. No fumbling with my phone, no guessing what I was looking at—just a smooth, fun, super informative run through one of the most beautiful cities in the world. And best of all? I saw so much before most of the city (and my family) was even awake!

The best way to see Parid

Wow! What a fantastic way to see Paris! Andrea was amazing, such a wealth of knowledge about the city's history. I really learnt a lot. Also - she took amazing photos. Great to see many of the sites without the crowds. Importantly, she took really great care of myself and the other runner, ensuring we were comfortable with the pace and supplying plenty of water, particularly as we were out during a heatwave. Thank you so much Andrea. 100% recommend!

FUN and informative RunRun Tour

Andrea did an excellent job leading this tour! From the initial warm welcome to the final stop at the Eiffel Tower, she anticipated every need: Water, granola bar, tissues, and confirming my comfort with the pace. I appreciated her wealth of the city's history and anecdotes, making it one of my favorite of MANY great European tours.

Perfect Paris morning

We completely enjoyed our morning run with Andrea. She took us to all the best sites to see in Paris, and had a wealth of knowledge to share with us. She took many great pictures of us to share with family and to remember this lovely vacation. 😍 Thank you Andrea for a great start to our day.

What a way to start a day!

My husband and I had a wonderful run with Andrea. We have done a couple of other great run tours in London and Stockholm but this one was even better! Lots of information and pictures before the crowds arrived. Highly recommend this tour.

Best Paris experience!

This was an AMAZING experience. I was able to learn about Paris its connection to American history and lots of cool facts. The pace was fair and adjustable to your needs. This tour was solo, however I can see that a group experience would be just as memorable. My tour guide Andrea was a godsend. She made me feel comfortable and helped me finish with great photos every step of the way.
