Private Tour: Customize Your Perfect Day in Paris
Your day in Paris is completely tailored to match your sightseeing desires. Before your tour, your private guide will contact you to discuss the things you want to see so that your logistics and itinerary can be arranged in advance, saving you time.
On the day of your tour, meet your guide at your preferred central location, and then set off by whatever necessary means of transport is needed. Taxi rides and public transport are included but all meals, activities and entrance fees are payable at your own expense.
So what to see? That's up to you! Perhaps visit must-see sights like the ever-inspiring Eiffel Tower -- Paris’s undisputed architectural icon -- or the Basilica of Sacré-Coeur for sweeping panoramic views. Alternatively, focus on the more offbeat Paris attractions like the Père Lachaise Cemetery – the city’s hauntingly beautiful graveyard – or let your guide introduce you to private parks that tourist maps miss. Below is a sample itinerary.
