Our Story

More Than a Tour, It's a Connection

The idea for Scenic Zest was born from a deep love for the stories etched into the cobblestone streets of Paris. Originally from Kashmir, I came to Paris and fell in love with its history. I believe that a tour should be more than just a walk; it should be an experience that connects you to the soul of the city.

Our mission is to go beyond the guidebooks. We craft intimate, story-driven walking tours that focus on the captivating tales and hidden secrets that make landmarks like Notre Dame truly magical. We don't just show you Paris; we aim to make you feel a part of its incredible history. Scenic Zest is for the curious traveler, the history lover, and anyone who believes that the best way to discover a city is one story at a time.

Lead Guide & Storyteller

Originally from Kashmir, my deep love for history found a new home on the ancient streets of Paris. I founded Scenic Zest based on a simple belief: a tour should be more than a walk; it should be an experience that connects you to the soul of the city. My passion is uncovering the captivating stories hidden in the stone and sharing the magic of Paris with every traveler I meet.
