About this activity

Maximize your Paris time with this curated 4-hour blend of guided sightseeing and leisurely Seine River dining. A private driver whisks you past the city's most iconic landmarks—Eiffel Tower, Louvre, Notre-Dame, Champs-Élysées—before delivering you to a 2-hour lunch cruise with recorded commentary, letting you absorb the city's grandeur without rushing.

Paris is beautiful but it's challenging to visit Paris in a short period. Don't worry, just book our tour and our expert driver will lead you around the city for a 2 Hour orientation tour offering an insider’s take on Paris. We will pick you up from your hotel in Paris and Drop you at the Boat Pier where you will do a Two hour Seine River Lunch Cruise on your own with a recorded commentary in boat. We’re talking iconic Paris attractions like Louvre Museum, Notre Dame cathedral, Eiffel tower, Avenue des champs Elysées etc.

We will pick you up from your hotel in Paris and go for a 2 hours Panoramic tour. After 2 hours we drop you at Boat Pier near Eiffel tower or Pont d'alma depending on boat company. You will receive etickets for Lunch Cruise before the trip starts. You need to go back to hotel on your own after the Lunch cruise. As it is a Panoramic tour only for 2 hours, we don't enter inside Louvre Museum or Notre Dame Cathedral and don't climb up the Eiffel Tower.
