You explore Paris in the comfort of a luxury 7-seater vehicle with a knowledgeable local driver-guide who speaks both English and French, offering real stories, cultural insights, and hidden details you won’t find in guidebooks. The tour seamlessly combines Paris’s most famous landmarks with a relaxing Seine River Cruise (tickets included), giving you both street-level discovery and breathtaking river views in one complete experience. With door-to-door pickup and drop-off from any central Paris location, stress-free transportation, and the freedom to spend more time where you love most. Please note that entrance tickets to all major landmarks and monuments (such as the Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museum, Arc de Triomphe, Les Invalides, etc.) are not included.
