For Travel Professionals

Paris is a major tourist destination that has a unique place in African-American history. A “Black Paris” itinerary is the perfect way to provide visitors to Paris with a new avenue of exploration that will enrich their cultural appreciation of the city.


Discover Paris! is partnering with The Travel Institute to offer a destination specialist course for travel professionals interested in Black Paris. Called "Paris – An Afro-centric Perspective," it is designed to introduce you to African Diaspora history, culture, and contemporary life in Paris, with a focus on the African-American experience here. We periodically offer introductory Webinars to provide a preliminary look at the richness of Black Paris and the potential that it offers for your travel business.

Monique knows her information, possesses a pleasant voice pitch, and is engaging to the listener. Also I've passed the exam!!!!!!!!!!!! Look forward to having my clients see this aspect of "The City of Lights".

Course topics include an overview of African-American history in Paris, the identification of sites in Paris that bear the names of African Americans, an Afro-centric look at museums and monuments, and Afro-centric dining.

Join the increasing numbers of travel professionals who have taken the course and earned certification from The Travel Institute!

I thoroughly enjoyed this course! Completing this course was one of my most proudest achievements this year. I learned so much and it provided so much information. I am so excited about traveling to Paris and providing this experience to my clients. This course provided so much value to my business and has given me so much more passion for the art of travel.

Paris - An Afro-centric Perspective "...exceeded expectations!" What I liked most about this course was the detailed information about each African American that played an integral part in the Parisian history and how to find and visit each historic location. I have learned of history that I was not aware existed. I would like to offer you a heartfelt thanks for enlightening me of such a rich history.
