Private Paris City Tour and Sightseeing Cruise on the Seine

About this activity

The driver will pick you up at your hotel or any other place in central Paris. You will enjoy Paris City Tour with our attentive and professional driver who will comfortably take you along the route. You will admire the views and listen to the audio guide with state-of-the-art commentaries.

Our Tour of Paris takes in the iconic Opera or Palais Garnier; the opulent Place Vendôme - laid out to glorify the armies of Louis the 14th; and the Eiffel Tower – initially planned as a temporary attraction and now an enduring symbol of the City of Lights. We’ll tell you where Marlene Dietrich went for the best pastries in town, where heads rolled during the French Revolution where the game of tennis was first invented and many other exciting historical facts.

After 3 hour private Paris City Tour, the driver will drop you off by the Eiffel tower where you will have a 1 hour sightseeing cruise on the Seine. After the cruise the driver will meet you to drive you back to your hotel.
