What you can expect

Step into medieval Poitiers and follow in the footsteps of Aliénor d'Aquitaine, one of the most powerful and fascinating women in European history, on a fully private walking tour.

Discover the city where Eleanor spent part of her life and uncover the storey of a queen who shaped the destinies of both France and England. As you walk through historic streets, your guide brings to life the political intrigues, royal alliances, and personal dramas that defined her era.

Far from a simple historical overview, this experience immerses you in the medieval world — a time of power struggles, court life, and shifting empires. Through storytelling and carefully selected locations, understand how Eleanor’s influence extended across Europe and why her legacy still resonates today.

Your guide adapts the tour to your interests, allowing you to explore the aspects that fascinate you most — whether it’s medieval politics, royal life, or the daily realities of the time.

This private experience offers a more engaging and personal way to discover Poitiers through the life of one extraordinary woman.
