A Day in Paris with One Journey: From Tower Heights to Montmartre Nights

Paris reveals itself in moments - the hush of the Seine at dawn, the thrill of a skyline view, the taste of flaky pastry on a hilltop street. Follow this story-led route through the city, woven from our most-loved experiences, and feel Paris come alive beneath your feet.

  1. Dawn on the Île: A gentle walk to wake the city

    Begin with our Original Paris by Walking experience - quiet bridges, a soft morning light, and the slow reveal of Notre-Dame’s newly burnished stone. As cafés open their doors, Paris feels like it’s opening to you.

    “The city is most generous when you walk it - one arch, one doorway, one story at a time.”
  2. Up to the sky: Eiffel Tower by elevator

    When the morning brightens, glide upward on our Eiffel Tower By Elevator tour. Paris stretches in every direction - the Grand Palais, the Seine’s silver curve, the perfect geometry of the Champ de Mars - while your guide threads the panorama with stories that make the view feel intimate.

    Pro tip: Book a late-morning slot to avoid the earliest queues and land right on time for lunch nearby.
  3. Midday masterpieces: Louvre, where art meets pop culture

    After a riverside stroll, step into our Louvre: Art and Pop Culture tour. From ancient icons to modern movie moments, you’ll see how the museum’s legends still ripple through the world today. It’s insightful, unexpected - and wonderfully fun.

  4. Afternoon flavors on the hill: Montmartre, plate by plate

    Drift north to cobbled streets for Palates & Panoramas: a tasting walk that pairs neighborhood stories with artisanal bites. Think warm boulangerie aromas, creamy cheeses, and a view that makes every flavor brighter.

  5. Golden hour, silver screen: Paris through cinema

    As the light turns honeyed, join Cinema Magic: Notre-Dame, Louvre, and Montmartre - a twilight ramble through scenes you’ve loved on film. Familiar facades become living sets, and the city plays itself with effortless grace.

  6. After-dark inspirations: Art, portraits, or a moonlit cathedral

    Choose your coda. Create and taste with Palette & Palate, linger on Île de la Cité with our Notre Dame Walking Tour, or save tomorrow for a regal escape to the Palace of Versailles.
