A Typical Half-Day Route
Six iconic stops in four hours. Every tour is different — this is just a starting point.
09:00~45 min
Montmartre & Sacré-Cœur
Start on the hill above Paris. Walk the cobbled lanes of Place du Tertre, take in the view from the basilica steps, and see the vineyard most visitors miss.
10:00~40 min
Le Marais & Place des Vosges
The oldest planned square in Paris, framed by red-brick arcades. Your chauffeur drops you at the entrance while you explore the galleries, cafés and hidden courtyards.
10:50~30 min
Île de la Cité & the Seine
Drive along the quais, pass Notre-Dame, cross the Pont Neuf. A perfect photo stop at the tip of the island where the river splits in two.
11:30~40 min
Saint-Germain-des-Prés
The literary heart of the Left Bank. Browse the bouquinistes, stop for a coffee at Café de Flore or Les Deux Magots, and stroll through the Luxembourg Garden.
12:20~30 min
Champs-Élysées & Arc de Triomphe
Cruise the most famous avenue in the world up to the Arc de Triomphe. Your chauffeur circles the roundabout while you capture the twelve radiating avenues from above.
13:00~30 min
Trocadéro & Eiffel Tower
The grand finale. Your chauffeur parks at the Trocadéro esplanade for the iconic unobstructed view of the Tower across the fountains. Perfect for your last photos.
Going full-day? Your chauffeur can extend the route to Versailles, the Bois de Boulogne, or the Château de Fontainebleau.
