(PH) Paris Historic
Paris was created some 2000 years ago and began at the Cite Island (Ile de la Cite). With emphasis on the history and art of the Capital this tour includes: a drive through the oldest part: the Marais district and its "hotels", private town-houses of the nobility 3 or 4 centuries ago, the Latin Quarter with the Sorbonne, the Luxembourg gardens, Saint-Germain-des-Pres district with its old church and its famous cafes, a guided visit to the interior of Notre-Dame Cathedral* and a short short transfer by boat to approach and leave the Cite Island (unless the river is too high). Before returning back to Place des Pyramides, you will admire the rigorous geometry of the Vendome Square and the surprising architecture of the "Garnier" Opera, near the department stores.

*In the case of mass, the guide will comment for you the beautiful facade with its 3 portals but will not be allowed to speak inside the Cathedral.

(PS) Paris Seinorama
A strong characteristic of the French people is the respect they have for their history and the restoration of their national monuments. The result of this preservation of the past has greatly contributed to the beauty of Paris today, with its unique perspectives, geometric squares, sculptures and monuments. This tour concentrates on showing Paris to the visitor from two different angles : Above and below. From the Eiffel Tower we enjoy a 360 degree panoramic view of the capital from on high. From the River Seine cruise, visitors will be captivated by an original viewing angle of the monuments and bridges from below.
