    Visit the Eiffel Tower

    Experience the best of Paris with our skip-the-line Eiffel Tower tour, starting just a 5-minute walk away from the tower. With our knowledgeable guide, you'll get an introduction to the Parisian icon and its rich history.

    As you skip the long entrance queue with your ticket, you'll ascend to the 2nd level viewing platform, where you can take in breathtaking views of Paris from a bird's-eye vantage point. During your visit, our guide will share fascinating facts and anecdotes about the Eiffel Tower, from its controversial origins as a despised monstrosity to its status today as a beloved legend.

    After the intoroductory tour, you'll have free time to continue up to the 3rd level and admire the city from the Summit. You can visit the former office of Gustave Eiffel, the mastermind behind the tower, or perhaps enjoy a drink at the bar (at your own expense).

    On your way down, don't miss the chance to stop by the 1st-floor immersion gallery or the gift shop for a unique souvenir. And for those seeking an adrenaline rush, try the vertigo-inducing glass floor on the 1st level.

    Enjoy a Seine River Cruise

    Experience the beauty of Paris from a unique perspective on this Seine River cruise tour. Step aboard our full-glazed boat with an uncovered floor and prepare to be enchanted by the city's most famous monuments.

    During our one-hour tour, you'll enjoy panoramic views of landmarks such as the Invalides, Musée d'Orsay, and Notre-Dame Cathedral. A knowledgeable host will share fascinating facts and anecdotes about the capital of France and provide different points of view to help you discover the city in a new way.

    As you glide along the Seine, take in the breathtaking scenery and marvel at the iconic monuments that have made Paris famous around the world. With its romantic charm and rich history, Paris is a city that truly comes to life when viewed from the river.

    Visit the Louvre Museum

    Join our expert guide for a Skip-the-Line guided tour of one of the most popular museums in the world. The Louvre Museum boasts over 35,000 objects on display from prehistory to the 19th century, spread across more than 650,000 square feet of gallery space.

    Since opening its doors to the public on 10th August 1793, the Louvre Museum has been a symbol of the wealth, power, and decadence of the French monarchy for over 600 years. From its origins as a medieval fortress, to a Renaissance palace and luxurious home to Kings and Emperors, the Louvre has transformed into an extraordinary French institution.

    Led by our knowledgeable guide, you'll explore the galleries of the Louvre and learn about the changing face of this iconic institution through its architecture and design. Admire masterpieces from renowned artists such as David, Géricault, Delacroix, and the legendary Leonardo da Vinci. Marvel at the iconic glass pyramid and witness the Venus de Milo, the Winged Victory of Samothrace, and the Mona Lisa, painted by da Vinci at the beginning of the 16th century.

    As part of a very small group of maximum 6 persons, you'll avoid the crowds and get an up-close and personal look at the Louvre's most famous artworks. And once the tour is over, you'll have the option to spend more time in the museum to explore other sections independently.

    Night at your hotel.

    Full day Trip from Paris to Giverny & Versailles

    In just one day, discover the Palace of Versailles, the residence of the 'Sun King' and the former home of Claude Monet, 'Prince of the Impressionists.' Join our expert guide and small group of up to 16 people at the meeting point close to the Eiffel Tower. After a 1-hour journey to Giverny in an air-conditioned minibus, you will first visit the idyllic home of Claude Monet on the edge of Normandy.

    Visit Claude Monet's House & Gardens in Giverny

    The leader of the Impressionist School lived here from 1883 to 1926, and the colorful decor and pink brick facade are an intimate reminder of its former life. The Claude Monet Foundation has completed significant restoration work on the property at Giverny, which was left by Monet's son to the Académie des Beaux-arts in 1966 and inaugurated in 1980. The gardens have been replanted as they once were and offer visitors the "painting from nature" that Claude Monet's contemporaries considered to be one of his masterpieces.

    Enjoy lunch at Moulin des Fourgues restaurant

    Next, enjoy a fabulous 3-course lunch at the "Moulin de Fourges" restaurant, a 200-year-old mill. The architecture of this listed site, dating back to the 18th century, draws its inspiration from the hamlet of Marie-Antoinette at Versailles. It offers a unique setting with its rural grounds and spacious terrace on the banks of the Epte.

    Visit the Palace of Versailles

    In the afternoon, we will take you back to the Golden Age of France with a visit to the Palace of Versailles. The chateau and gardens count among the most prestigious monuments of the world's artistic heritage and are certainly the finest and most complete achievement of 17th-century French art. This sumptuous royal palace was home to three of France's most illustrious kings for over 100 years, and the audio-guided tour includes the State Apartments of the King and Queen, Royal Chapel and Hall of Mirrors, a richly decorated gallery which boasts 357 mirrors, French bay windows, and crystal chandeliers.

    At the end of your visit, there is free time to discover the famous gardens à la française, a 2,000-acre park designed by André le Notre with its magnificent groves, statues, and fountains.
