Sightseeing in Paris

Notre Dam, the Musée d’Orsay, the Louvre, Arc de Triomphe, and the Eiffel Tower; there is no end to the sightseeing opportunities in this instantly recognisable city. A global hub for the arts, gastronomy, music and style, the things to see and do in Paris know no bounds. With so much on your Paris sightseeing agenda, nowhere would the capability of being in two places at once come in handy more than in romantic Paris. Fantasies aside, your best bet for Paris sightseeing on limited time is with a multi-destination tour or two. With a local expert to lead you through the iconic city scenes and bring you face-to-face with the sights of most historic and cultural significance, you’ll fall head over heels for the City of Lights in no time.

Just arrived in the French capital and feeling slightly overwhelmed? No bother, get your gluggy, jetlagged self to a hop-on, hop-off bus tour for your first foray into Paris sightseeing. Our many hop-on, hop-off, bus tours include a series of city loops, covering Paris’ essential spots. Saint-Michel, the Place de la Concorde, Champs-Elysees, Bastille, the Eiffel Tower and many more must-see Paris sites are all on the buses’ hitlist. As the name suggests, you can hop on and off the vehicle at whichever stop you fancy exploring further. Riding an entire loop on the bus is also a great way to get accustomed to the city’s layout and find your bearings in the city, plus you’ll pick up a few facts while you’re at it.

Go back to basics with a tour of the French capital on foot. One of the most invigorating and exciting ways to sightsee in Paris, a walking tour allows you to truly explore every element of the city – and see how the ideas, behaviours and experiences of locals have been imprinted on every street, corner and crevice of Paris. Whether it’s a photography tour, a gourmet tour, a shop through the flea markets or even exploring the sites of the French revolution, our vast collection of walking tours cover all interests.

Today, Paris sightseeing extends beyond the traditional, with a romantic cruise on the River Seine, a bike ride through Montmartre or a climb up the Eiffel tower just the beginning of our tour offerings. For those looking to add an extra element of fun to their Paris day out, try one of our Segway, Horse and Carriage or French ECV car tours out for size. Also critical to an extra-special French adventure, get your hands on tickets to the Moulin Rouge or make your way to Versailles to enjoy everything that this holiday hotspot has to offer.
