Full description
Discover the best of Paris in a day, with Montmartre, Sacré-Cœur, the Louvre, Notre-Dame, the Eiffel Tower and a Seine River cruise.
Experience the best of Paris in a single unforgettable day with a guided tour that brings together iconic landmarks, world-famous art and authentic Parisian charm. The day begins in Montmartre, the bohemian heart of Paris, where a scenic funicular ride whisks you up to the breathtaking Sacré-Cœur Basilica, before wandering the cobbled streets of this historic district on foot, passing quaint cafés, a local vineyard and its legendary windmills.
The tour continues by metro to the Louvre Museum, where skip-the-line entry allows you to quickly discover one of the world's most celebrated art collections, including Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa, alongside an expert English-speaking guide. After a short break for lunch at your leisure, the tour resumes on the Île de la Cité, the ancient heart of Paris, where you'll admire the ongoing restoration of Notre-Dame Cathedral from the closest viewpoint available, while the guide points out landmarks such as Place Dauphine, the Pont Neuf bridge and the former prison of Marie Antoinette.
The day concludes at the ultimate spot for a panoramic Eiffel Tower view. As a final gift, you'll receive a ticket for a Seine River cruise, a magical way to see Paris from the water, either at sunset or the following day, an ideal tour for first-time visitors to the city.
