Make the most of your cruise ship's stop at Le Havre Port and embark on a day trip to Paris. Enjoy a convenient bus ride to the city and join a guide on a panoramic tour of the city's major landmarks, including the Eiffel Tower, the Champs-Élysees, Place de la Concorde, and many more.
You will be greeted outside the cruise ship terminal and board a comfortable, air-conditioned bus to set out on a journey through the beautiful Norman countryside.
Upon arrival in Paris, your first stop is the iconic Les Invalides. Here, you'll meet your passionate local tour guide who will bring the city to life with their captivating stories and historical insights. Stretch your legs, enjoy a cup of coffee, and buy some souvenirs, snacks, or a light lunch at the café inside the complex.
Your next stop will be the most iconic landmark in the world - the Eiffel Tower! From here, embark on a journey to discover the city's most famous landmarks, starting with the legendary Champs-Élysées. Drive down the most famous avenue in the world, lined with theaters, cafes, and luxury shops. Hop off the bus at the end of the avenue to snap the perfect picture of the majestic Arc de Triomphe.
Next, see the famous Place de la Concorde and be awed by its grandeur! Continue on to the rue du Louvre, where you'll catch a glimpse of one of the world's most famous museums, the Louvre.
The tour next takes you to the magnificent Hôtel de Ville, the City Hall of Paris that boasts exquisite architecture and rich history. Located just around the corner is one of the most renowned churches in the world, Notre Dame. This true masterpiece of Gothic architecture suffered significant damage in a fire in 2019, but it remains an iconic symbol of Paris and its resilience.
Please note that due to ongoing renovations, the cathedral is closed to visitors, and scaffolding may obstruct the view from the outside. Your guide will assess whether it's feasible to explore the area on foot, time, and view permitting. If possible, we will take a short walk before concluding the tour.
As the tour comes to an end, your guide will bid you farewell, and you will be transported back to the Le Havre cruise ship port.
As Paris is far from the port, there is limited time for exploration. This tour offers a fully guided tour with a licensed local guide, and a brief lunch break, but please note there won't be time for shopping or a sit-down meal.
If you are interested in a tour with more free time, we recommend our other Paris shore excursion: "Shop & Dine", including a brief panoramic tour, and more time for exploration around the Champs Elysees.
Due to the limited time in port, it is unfortunately impossible to combine shopping, a sit-down meal, and sightseeing.
Have trust in our decade-long experience in organizing shore excursions. Booking a tour during your cruise can be stressful, but not with us! Our tours are adjusted to your ship's schedule, ensuring that you have plenty of time to enjoy the day without worrying about making it back to the ship on time. We will pick you up directly at the port and drop you off with plenty of time to spare, so you can relax and enjoy your day.
