As a couple or in a group, you'll be welcomed with a smile and after a short wait you'll embark at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. The tour begins and you'll admire a succession of prestigious monuments and listen to the heart-warming song 'I love Paris in the summer'.
To learn History along the way, plug in your audio-guide and choose your language (there are 13). Your hostess will also provide lesser-known stories: famous lovers met in this town house…
From bridge to bridge and bank to bank, Parisians escort you on foot or on bicycle. You're at the heart of lively Paris, and time will fly by. And if you come back at night, its another Paris before your eyes yet just as magical.
