By Grace Ma - 16 Nov The Louvre museum, Eiffel Tower , and Chateau de Versailles are well-known landmarks in Paris that often top tourist itineraries in the French capital.
But, unbeknownst to many, the city has a handful of under-the-radar museums and palaces whose riveting histories are only revealed through exclusive private tours with their owners or historians.
These extraordinary sites, often shrouded in mystery, have started collaborating with luxury travel curators, recognising the appeal of an exclusive experience that goes beyond the ordinary tourist attractions.
One such curator is Singapore-based bespoke travel designer Intriq Journey who was about to take me on a whirlwind tour that would reveal the captivating histories and artistic treasures of Paris in an entirely new light.
It was her special place for hosting friends and indulging in her love for botany and animals. As I stepped through the steel gates, another world unfurled. The urban sprawl of Paris faded away, and in its place was a foliage-filled wonderland, dressed in rich shades of green after a spring shower, framed by gray skies overhead.
