Paris

as seen in

All the time in the world would barely suffice to describe the City of Light and its fascinating history. Also known as the City of Love or City of Arts, the French capital is a significant European hub for commerce, fashion, gastronomy, science, and the arts since the 17th century. Unlike other capital cities that were scathed by wars, Paris has never been destroyed by such calamities. Through the centuries, Paris has preserved even its earliest history, as evidenced by historical architectural styles that date back more than a millennium. The city's unparalleled architectural grandeur is complemented by neoclassical, Belle Époque, 20th-century, and contemporary monuments.

“Paris is not a city; it’s a world.”

– King Francis I

Paris is always blooming. The high residential population of its city center differentiates it from most western metropolises. Every district has its distinct character, inviting Parisians and visitors to stroll along the quays, get lost in the labyrinth of small streets, discover café terraces and parks, and enter one of the city's 9,000 restaurants or 130 museums. When the night falls, theater, opera, and cabaret shows traditionally stand out in Parisian culture. Paris is also the birthplace of cinema, a form of art that is still dear to a city that's home to 420 screens, with the oldest movie theaters dating back to 1926. Remarkably, a movie theater is never more than a 15-minute walk away in Paris.

Things to do in Paris

It comes as no surprise that a beautiful city like Paris, with such rich history, superb art, and unique tastes, is overflowing with incredible things to see and do. There's a lot to enjoy on your own in the City of Light, and climbing the iconic Eiffel Tower to catch breathtaking views of the city's mesmerizing skyline should definitely top your list. However, to make the most of your time in the French capital, it's best to visit other attractions on guided tours.

From marveling at world-renowned masterpieces in the Louvre to discovering the secrets of the quaintest neighborhoods in Paris, such as Montmartre and Saint-Germain-des-Prés to venturing out of the city to explore scenic places like Champagne, Versailles, Normandy, and the Loire Valley, leave it to us to arrange the best private or small-group tours that will render your Paris adventure all the more memorable. When we send you your customized itinerary you will be able to choose additional excursions to include in your vacation package or consider for adding later.
