Paris Promenade 2

Paris Promenade 2 is a race course in Mario Kart Tour. It is named after and inspired by Paris,, and is the second layout of the overall Paris Promenade course. It made its debut as the featured course of the Valentine's Tour, which is due to the city's reputation of being called "The City of Love". This layout is driven in the opposite direction compared to the first layout, and it visits a different side of the city, as well as taking a different route to reach the Eiffel Tower, which this time doesn't involve gliding to it.

It is a favorite course of Black Yoshi, Bowser Jr. (Pirate), Baby Peach (Cherub), Baby Rosalina (Detective), Mario (Chef), Mario (Aviator), Rosalina (Chef), and the Birdo and Cat Mii Racing Suits. It is also a favorite of Cat Toad if he reaches level 3.

The course also appears as Paris Promenade 2R (reverse), Paris Promenade 2T (with ramps), and Paris Promenade 2R/T (reverse and with ramps).

Elements of this course's layout appear in the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass' version of Paris Promenade - particularly on the final lap, where racers turn around and drive through the course in the opposite direction like in this variation.
