Audio Guided Tour of Paris, Seine River Cruise and Lunch

 This fantastic half day excursion (morning or afternoon) gives you an opportunity to discover Paris's famous tourist sights and monuments. It includes lunch at the restaurant on the 1st floor of the Eiffel Tower or in front of the Eiffel Tower (depending on the tour selected), a city tour by panoramic coach, and an hour-long cruise along the Seine. Experience the beauty and heritage of the French capital in three different ways.

Your tour of Paris by air-conditioned panoramic coach will last for one and a half hours: learn about the city's history and its well-known monuments thanks to our audio guide commentary (individual headsets). Your tour will visit some unique sights, such as Place de l’Opéra Square, Place de la Concorde Square, the Champs-Élysées, the Arc de Triomphe, Place du Trocadéro Square, the Eiffel Tower, the Invalides, the Pont-Neuf Bridge, the Bastille Opera House and its square, Notre Dame de Paris, the Luxembourg Gardens, and Saint Germain des Prés.

At the foot of the Eiffel Tower, step aboard for a fantastic one-hour audio guided cruise on the Seine River with music. Admire the stunning architecture of the heart of the capital's most prestigious monuments that line the banks of the Seine: the Louvre Museum, Notre Dame Cathedral, the Orsay Museum, the Conciergerie, etc. Enjoy the views from the fully-glassed boat with open-air terrace. Be captivated by this river trip under Paris's bridges, past Parisians going about their business as they walk or cycle by.

Enjoy a memorable lunch at the Eiffel Tower or at the "Bistro Parisien" restaurant depending on the tour selected.
