Paris by Coach - 3 days

All 3 day tours are Friday to Sunday, except Bank Holiday Weekends (28-30th August 2010) where the tours are Saturday-Monday. Over Christmas (24-27th December 2010)  and Easter (22-25th April 2011) we operate a 4 day tour which includes the option of a day trip to Disneyland Paris.

Tour Highlights

A fully guided Paris tour using good quality 3 star city-centre hotel accommodation  - outstanding value 

Take a cruise on the river Seine, see the Eiffel Tower, walk along the Champs Elysées, see the Arc de Triomphe, visit Montmartre and Sacre Coeur, take a photo of the Moulin Rouge (the home of the cancan) see the Cathedral of Notre Dame and explore the Louvre Museum!

Day 1   - We start our 3 day tour from your chosen UK departure point. We travel to Paris by modern executive coach with one of our friendly drivers and our experienced Paris guide. Our journey includes a short sea crossing, from where you can usually see the famous White Cliffs and Dover Castle, as we sail towards France.

Our driver will take us directly to our 3 star hotel right in the centre of Paris.  After you have settled into your comfortable hotel room,  we will meet in the hotel reception for our guided tour of Paris. This tour includes a cruise on the spectacular river Seine and also gives you the opportunity to climb the Eiffel Tower (entrance fee is extra) to get a 'bird's eye view' of this wonderful city.

Then we pass by  the Arc de Triomphe and  Champs Elysées (with photo stops) before returning to the hotel.

 

During the evening, you will have the option to join your guide for dinner in a nearby local restaurant. This is a great opportunity to try the local food, whilst getting to know your fellow travellers (food, drink and any public transport is extra).Basilique du Sacré Coeur

Day 2 - After  breakfast, meet the guide at 9am for a full day of sightseeing. The first stop is Montmartre for the Sacre Coeur, Place du Tertre and Moulin Rouge. Then on to Ille de la Cite and the world famous Notre Dame Cathedral, with time for lunch and shopping on the banks of the Seine. The day finishes with some free time for shopping in Opera. Here you can shop in the department stores Galeries Lafayette or Printemps, see the Opera Garnier (entrance charge), visit the food shops Hediard or Fauchon, or maybe enjoy tea and macaroons at La Duree before the coach transfers you back to the hotel. Or you can join our half day tour to Versailles.

Half day trip to the Palace & Gardens of Versailles - £25 - A fully guided half day coach tour to the stunning Palace & Gardens of Versailles. Built in the 17th century during the reign of Louis XIV to project the absolute power of the French monarchy, it served as the political capital and royal court for over 100 hundred years, until in 1789 the revolutionary mobs massacred the Palace Guard and dragged Louis XVI and Marie-Antionette to Paris to cut off their heads! Undoubtedly the grandest and most famous chateau in France. Price includes coach and entry to the Palace/Gardens.

Alternatively, you may wish to do your own sightseeing. The All Season Paris Bercy is so central sightseeing on your own is a very simple option, and our guide is there to help you. 

Evening free to enjoy the Paris nightlife. From our hotel Bercy metro station is a two minute walk, and all areas of Paris City centre are easily accessible in minutes by metro. The Louvre Museum

Day 3 - A morning coach excursion to the Louvre Museum (entry not included, free on the first Sunday of every month) and your chance to see the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo, Michelangelo's Dying Slave or to follow the trail of the Da Vinci Code!

Thank you so much for arranging this tour, I have really enjoyed the weekend in Paris and our guide Nelson was so kind and patient.

I would like to thank International Friends for the fabulous 3 day tour of Paris that I have just completed. The tour was very well organised and the entire trip was very professional. I cannot speak highly enough of the tour guide, Andrew, or the driver, Steve. Andrew has a great knowledge of history and facts and ensured we were well informed at all times. Steve's driving skills are very impressive and I am sure everyone on board felt safe in his capable hands.  Well done guys.  I will look forward to another tour on my next trip.
