Anita –

Monica L, went out of her way to be extraordinary in the experience she provided during the 6 hour tour. It started with a very humorous introduction around some of the paris landmarks, before providing a detailed but engaging overview on the architecture, history, and backdrop of the Eiffel tower. As a guide, she was generous with relevant and anecdotal commentary from insights ranging from early to modern paris, to providing guidance on where to get the best experiences and helping abundantly with where to get the best photos. This magical experience continued also on the boat ride down the Sien river where we were informed on the Paris landmarks and the historic significance behind them. I especially enjoyed new knowledge around the context of the french revolution. We had the best time ever and would recommend Monica to anyone who wants to have a fun and knowledge filled overview of Paris. Thanks for adding colour and glamour to our anniversary in Paris. Yinka and Anita

Full description

Discover the essence of Paris on an extraordinary day tour that blends iconic landmarks with hidden gems for an unforgettable journey through the heart of the City of Lights.

Your adventure begins with an ascent to the summit of the Eiffel Tower by elevator, offering panoramic views that showcase Paris in all its splendor. Our expert guide narrates the city's history and architectural wonders, providing captivating insights into its rich heritage.

Next, we embark on a comfortable bus ride, heading towards the renowned Notre Dame Cathedral. As you marvel at the city's famous attractions, you will hear stories of Paris' history. (Don't forget, the bus ticket is valid for 24 hours, allowing you to explore even after the tour concludes!)

Break for lunch at one of the charming bakeries or restaurants surrounding Notre Dame. (Lunch is not included, but your guide can give you recommendations for where to eat). After lunch, enjoy a guided tour of the cathedral's exterior. Uncover hidden stories behind its awe-inspiring architecture and gain a profound understanding of its significance in Parisian history.

But the adventure continues! Venture into the Archeological Crypt concealed beneath Notre Dame, where ancient ruins and archaeological wonders await.

We then lead you through the enchanting Latin Quarter, where cobbled streets and beautiful landmarks welcome you into a bohemian neighborhood defined by its artistic and intellectual ambiance.

With a small group setting, our guides offer personalized attention, creating an enriching experience for all. Connect with fellow travelers, share stories, and build memories that will linger long after the tour ends.

A couple things to note:

This tour doesn’t include skipping the line for the Eiffel Tower. Your guide will purchase tickets for you after you arrive. Please be aware that the wait time to purchase tickets can be up to two hours during peak season. However, rest assured that your guide will keep you entertained and provide insightful information about the Eiffel Tower while you wait in line together.

If the summit is closed when you receive your tickets from your tour guide, the summit portion of your tour will be refunded, and you’ll still enjoy a visit to the second floor. Please note that it’s not possible to cancel your reservation due to summit closure. The summit may be closed by Eiffel Tower staff for maintenance, weather, overcrowding or security measures and this is unfortunately beyond our control.
