Independent Paris:
This independent tour to Paris is designed to give you freedom while visiting Paris. Arrive into Paris Gare du Nord and the day is yours to explore Paris. Whilst in Paris you can use your ticket on the Hop-on Hop-off City Tour to see the Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Champs Elysees and more at your leisure. Total independence to see what you want, when you want.
Escorted Paris:
This is a fully escorted day tour. On arrival in Paris you will be met (English speaking guide) at the station for a panoramic tour of Paris to see all the main sights of Paris, and includes a stop at the second level of the Eiffel Tower, before taking a break for lunch. On some occasions, queuing time at the Eiffel Tower may be lengthy. Your guide may suggest a visit to the Louvre Museum or Musee D'Orsay (on Tuesdays) as an alternative. If this happens, you will still see the Eiffel Tower and have time for photographs there instead.
In the afternoon, take a cruise down the famous River Seine. Your Paris guide will meet you after the cruise and will escort you to the Notre Dame for a tour of this magnificent Cathedral. Your air-conditioned coach will be waiting to transport you to the Opera District for a spot of shopping, before returning to the Gare du Nord for the train home.
Standard or First Class Eurostar Tickets:
Tickets will be pre-booked in an air-conditioned carriage. You have the choice of traveling with a standard ticket or upgrade to first class (Eurostar Leisure Select) to enjoy complimentary breakfast and light evening meal, wide reclining spacious seats and selection of newspapers and magazines.
