Ile Saint-Louis: The most beautiful walk...

Oliver Gee
About this episode

I is for Ile Saint-Louis - an island in the Seine. As far as I'm concerned, it features the most beautiful walk in Paris. 

In this episode, I take you walking along the best bits of the island and share my favourite haunts. I also share my ideal route so you can do the same.
