Our first stop in Paris: the world-famous Eiffel Tower! This remarkable structure once stood as the tallest man-made edifice on the planet and still mesmerizes visitors with its awe-inspiring elegance and romantic ambiance. Positioned in the heart of the city, the Eiffel Tower is much more than a mere tourist hotspot.

Don’t forget to take the perfect snapshot to memorialize your visit to this extraordinary landmark.

Please note we do not visit the Tower inside, as such a visit can take up to 2-3 hours due to security measures.

Next, embark on a captivating 1-hour river cruise that begins at the iconic Eiffel Tower. Glide through the heart of Paris and marvel at the city’s architectural masterpieces from a unique vantage point on the water. Witness the grandeur of the Louvre, home to thousands of works of art, including the Mona Lisa and the Venus de Milo.

As you continue, catch sight of the Musée d’Orsay, renowned for housing the world’s largest collection of impressionist and post-impressionist masterpieces.

Further along, you’ll approach the majestic Notre Dame Cathedral, its Gothic façade reflecting beautifully on the surface of the river.

Enjoy this tranquil, comfortable, and convenient alternative to navigating the typically crowded city streets—especially during the Olympics, when Paris will be exceptionally bustling.

As your cruise weaves through the city, you’ll also have a view of the historic Place de la Concorde, famous for its stunning obelisk and pivotal role in French history. This leisurely journey provides a picturesque route past some of Paris’s most famous sites, allowing you to explore and appreciate the city’s rich cultural tapestry from the serene comfort of your riverboat.

After the river cruise, our bus will take you to the Arc de Triomphe where our knowledgable guide will tell you the history of this magnificent sight.

Commissioned by Napoleon Bonaparte to commemorate his military victories and honor the French army. Standing at a height of 50 meters, the monument boasts intricate sculptures and reliefs that depict significant historical events.

As you travel down this world-famous avenue, you’ll see theaters, cafes, and high-end stores, all contributing to the lively atmosphere of Paris. For centuries, the Champs-Élysées has represented the best of French sophistication and flair, drawing countless visitors each year.

You will have some free time here for self-exploration, shopping and dining.
