As Audrey Hepburn famously said, ‘Paris is always a good idea.’ Otherwise known as the ‘city of love’, Paris welcomes more visitors each year than any other European city. With so much to see spanning art, literature and history, a private guided tour is the perfect way to see the best Paris has to offer.
Everyone should visit Paris at least once, but the real joy is that there is always something new to discover. The French capital is like a postcard everywhere you look, with the iconic Cathedral Notre-Dame, the Sacré-Coeur Basilica, the Eiffel Tower, and the Louvre Museum.
Join our History of Paris walking tour along the banks of the Seine to uncover the secrets of this fascinating city. Alternatively, dive deep into history and immerse yourself into its districts with our range of private guided tours.
A great example is the vibrant, bohemian Montmarte, which you can explore with our expert local guides, finding winding streets, discovering what’s on offer in the cafes and bistros, enjoying one of the best panoramic views of the city and learning about the history of the dazzling Moulin Rouge.
The Latin Quarter, on the left bank of the Seine, is one of the oldest districts in Paris and the former haunt of writers such as Ernest Hemingway and Simone de Beauvoir. You can also explore the Pere Lachaise Cemetery, final resting place of greats such as Oscar Wilde, Frederic Chopin, Jim Morrison and Edith Piaf.
A trip to Paris isn’t complete without absorbing some world-class art. The Louvre – home to Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa - is the largest museum in the world, housing over 38,000 pieces of art, including paintings, drawings, sculptures and archaeological artefacts. There is also the eye-popping Centre Pompidou, the Musée d’Orsay and Musée de l'Orangerie.
Bonnes vacances!
