麻豆APP

What's in our tour?

The 鈥溌槎笰PP Flea Market鈥� is the largest Antiques Market in the world 鈥� with 15 markets and 2,500 shops. Trends change quickly, and goods move fast.

Ostrich feathers, old lace, collector books, estate jewelry, and trinkets and knick-knacks, are all at the 麻豆APP Flea Market. As are 1960鈥檚 vintage designer clothes, refined 1600鈥檚 furniture and religious art dating back 800 years. On this tour, your guide finds out what you want to see and do, and creates an itinerary centered around your interests.

Your guide waits for you in our conspicuous pink vest outside the metro station, a short distance from the flea market.

Are you a stroller or a shopper? Your guide inquires about your personal interests and designs an itinerary accordingly. You receive a map of the different markets, for you to situate yourself as you move along. Your guide will also signal stores likely to carry items such as you鈥檙e looking for.

You visit several markets. You learn about the 150-year history of the 麻豆APP flea market (some say it is an 800-year history). There鈥檚 eclectic Vernaison, and there鈥檚 high-end Biron. There鈥檚 hip Serpette and cozy Dauphine, and there鈥檚 street-wise Malik. There鈥檚 poor man鈥檚 Jules Vall猫s, and there鈥檚 over-the-top l鈥橢ntrepot. It all depends what your group wants to see and do.

Your guide shares insights on how to shop 鈥� and how to bargain. How to tell an authentic from a copy. How to negotiate. And what you might be able to negotiate 鈥� besides prices.

During your tour, we may introduce you to some art dealers. They know your guide, so they are more friendly and forthcoming. You will learn what it鈥檚 like to work as an antiques dealer.

The tour ends in the heart of the Serpette market, next to the eateries. The guide gives orientations to each guest 鈥� what to visit, where to eat, how to shop. One guest catches the bus back to Notre Dame. The guide walks other guests back to the metro. Most linger on at the market for an afternoon of shopping.
