Inclusions

Itinerary

1. Meet your guide at the Statue of Benjamin Franklin in the Trocadéro Gardens before setting off on a scenic walk toward the Seine, with the Eiffel Tower already visible in the distance.

   15 min

2. Cross the Pont d'Iéna for one of the clearest views in Paris, the Eiffel Tower rising directly ahead, framed by the river below. Your guide shares the story of the 1889 World's Fair that built it, along with the years it spent nearly being torn down, before you stop for photos at a few of the best angles nearby.

   30 min

3. Take the Metro to Île de la Cité, the small island at the heart of medieval Paris, and walk past Pont Neuf, the city's oldest standing bridge.

   15 min

4. View the exterior of Notre-Dame, one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture, while your guide shares the story of its history and ongoing restoration.

   20 min

5. Admire the exterior of Sainte-Chapelle, a former royal chapel famous for its stained glass, and hear the story of the medieval king who built it to house his collection of holy relics.

   15 min

6. Pass by La Conciergerie, once a royal palace and later a Revolutionary prison, where Marie Antoinette and hundreds of others awaited trial before the guillotine.

   15 min

7. Walk through the Latin Quarter, a lively student neighborhood that's been a center of learning since the Middle Ages, on the way to the final stop.

   20 min

8. Finish at the Louvre Museum, once a royal palace and now the world's most visited museum. Your guide explains why a modern glass pyramid sits in its historic courtyard, then leads you inside with your ticket already arranged.

About Paris

Paris pairs grand boulevards and riverside monuments with café terraces, art collections of global stature and neighbourhoods that feel like villages.

The Seine runs through the heart of the city, past the Île de la Cité with Notre-Dame and the Sainte-Chapelle, the long façade of the Louvre and the Musée d'Orsay in its former railway station. Downriver, the Eiffel Tower rises over the Champ de Mars, and the Arc de Triomphe crowns the Champs-Élysées.
