This is a good tour if you want to see the main highlights. Perfect for a first time, our Paris highlights tour covers the essentials and must see monuments and attractions of Paris. See the city’s legendary monuments such as the Eiffel Tower, Arc of Triumph, Champs Elysées, Concorde, the Opera, Place Vendôme, the Grand & Petit Palais, the bridge Pont Alexandre III, the Invalides, and Notre Dame. Place Vendôme After passing in front of the Opera Garnier, and the rue de la Paix, we will pass by the famous Place Vendôme, filled with jewelries, which is a delight for photographers. This is where the Hotel du Ritz is located, where Lady D, Princess Diana was staying. We will pass by the charming Place Dauphine to encourage the bocce ball players, pass in front of the facade of Notre Dame, then Saint Michel, and even the banks of the Seine. We would ride alongside the Seine River, for a memorable experience, almost like a cruise on wheels. We will go up the most beautiful avenue in the world which is the Champs Elysées to the sound of Joe Dassin, taking care to pass by the mythical bridge Alexandre III with its golden statues, the Invalides where Napoleon is buried, the Grand and Petit Palais, then to turn around the mythical Arc de Triomphe. We will admire the Eiffel Tower, taking memorable photos. The curvature of the Citroën 2CV fits under the arc of the Eiffel Tower for a splendid shot. This is an example of the locations within reach in a one hour tour. This depends obviously on departure location and the time of the day, as well as traffic conditions. In general traffic would be better at nighttime, after 7. Or if during the day, between 10 to 12 or between 1 to 4pm. A loop, meaning a start and finish at your hotel, usually covers less than finishing somewhere else than we started as we don’t have to go back, so can explore a little more of the city on the way. Stops are at your convenience, and within the time available. We usually stop by the Eiffel Tower, the Arc of Triumph, and Notre Dame, for pictures. Most of the time you can just stand up in the car for the picture but can also get out whenever you want. When booking, please enter the address of where you’d like to be picked up as your address. Do not write your address back home. If you don’t need to be picked up then don’t specify it and the departure will be at 5 rue du cardinal dubois, 75018 Paris. Thank you
