The starting point is the famous Louvre Museum, one of the most outstanding cultural jewels in the world.

At the heart of this majestic building, once a royal residence, is the enigmatic Mona Lisa, a masterpiece that has captured the imagination of generations. Delight in the opportunity to view her up close, allowing her details and mysterious expression to envelop you in her unique aura.
After this encounter with the Mona Lisa, the museum unfolds before you in all its magnificence. Enter the corridors filled with treasures, from the ancient civilisations that stand as testimony to the history of mankind to the masterpieces of the 19th century. This former royal palace has been transformed into a space where creativity and beauty converge in astonishing ways. Walk at your own pace, allowing yourself to immerse yourself in the world of artistic geniuses who have shaped our understanding of creativity and expression over the centuries.
The itinerary then takes you to the iconic Eiffel Tower, one of the most iconic symbols of Paris and the world. At your own pace, discover the secrets of this monument that unites heaven and earth. From its history to its unique architecture, the Eiffel Tower is a tangible testimony to the creative spirit of humanity. From its top, admire the panoramic view that stretches over Paris like a dazzling tapestry. The skyline is populated by famous monuments that have left an indelible mark on history and the collective imagination, from the majesty of Notre-Dame Cathedral to the imposing presence of the Arc de Triomphe and the Invalides.
The beauty of this experience has no time limit. Enjoy the freedom to explore and wander at your leisure as you surrender to the view of the city unfolding at your feet. The first floor offers you an unparalleled experience: a glass floor that places you 57 metres above the ground, creating the illusion of walking among the clouds and the streets of Paris at the same time. An instant that encapsulates the sensation of being in the air and on the ground simultaneously.
To round off your day in this wonderful city, cruise the waters of the Seine on a commentated cruise that will give you a unique insight into the architecture and history of Paris. From the serenity of the river, admire the monuments that line its banks, each with its own history and impact on the city. Let the narrations enrich your understanding and appreciation of the rich tapestry of the City of Light.
