Start your visit to Paris off with a bang by heading straight to the unmistakable icon of the city – the Eiffel Tower. Take your fill of photos around the expansive Tower grounds and the Champ de Mars, then travel to the top and enjoy spectacular views of the French capital from 377 feet up. From there, make your way to the nearby Rodin Museum to discover the awe-inspiring work of one of France’s most revered artists. As the sun sets, board a sightseeing cruise and glide under the charming bridges of the Seine while taking in views of the city’s finest monuments.
Spend your morning exploring the medieval Catholic cathedral of Notre Dame, a masterpiece of French Gothic architecture and one of the most visited monuments in France. Take a guided tour through the historical landmark, taking in the cathedral’s elaborate stone carvings, dazzling stained glass windows and ornate flying buttresses.
Then tour another top Parisian landmark, the famous Sacré-Coeur. Marvel at the world’s largest mosaic and the basilica’s iconic dome, then enjoy a scenic walk through the artist village of Montmartre, one of most charming districts in Paris. Take your time meandering through the village’s Place du Tertre, a town square full of local artists peddling their wares and souvenir shops galore.
