10 hours Full Day Photoshoot and Shopping Tour in Paris

We will be stopping for a photo session at the Eiffel Tower. The Eiffel Tower was built by Gustave Eiffel for the 1889 Exposition Universelle, which was to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution. Its construction in 2 years, 2 months, and 5 days was a veritable technical and architectural achievement. "Utopia achieved," a symbol of technological prowess at the end of the 19th century, was a demonstration of French engineering and a defining moment of the industrial era. As France’s symbol in the world and the showcase of Paris, today it welcomes almost 7 million visitors a year, making it the most visited monument that you have to pay for in the world.

Our chauffeur will accompany you to the famous Notre Dame cathedral from the 12th century, which is currently under renovation. The Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, is the most visited monument in France. It was built in the Middle Ages, at the far end of the Île de la Cité. Work started in the 13th century and finished in the 15th century. Badly damaged during the French Revolution, the cathedral was restored in the 19th century by the architect Viollet-le-Duc. Its many visitors come to admire its stained glass and rose windows, the towers, the steeple, and the gargoyles. In 2013, Notre Dame celebrated its 850th anniversary. On this occasion, many events were organized, and the cathedral renewed its bells with the arrival of eight new bells as well as a new great bell. Road distances from Paris, France, are calculated from point 0 on the cathedral forecourt.

Our driver will accompany you until the closest point possible, then you need to walk solo for 5 minutes to the famous glass pyramid of the Louvre museum. Every trip to the capital deserves a visit to the Louvre to discover the wealth of treasures it contains. The museum houses western works of art dating from the Middle Ages to 1848, in addition to collections of ancient oriental, Egyptian, Greek, Etruscan, and Roman civilizations, as well as graphic and Islamic arts. From room to room, the former royal palace reveals its masterpieces to the public: the Mona Lisa, The Raft of the Medusa, the Venus de Milo, and The Winged Victory of Samothrace. In total, there are 35,000 works to be discovered or rediscovered! With its eight hundred-year history, the Louvre has been influenced by numerous architectural trends, from the medieval fortress of the 12th century to the glass pyramid by Pei (1989).

We will stop here for the most amazing view of the Eiffel Tower. Situated on the opposite side of the Seine from the Eiffel Tower, Trocadéro is home to splendid gardens and ornamental ponds and fountains, as well as the cultural richness of the Palais de Chaillot, the Cité de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine, and the Musée de la Marine. Just behind Trocadéro is the "village" of Passy, with its charms of yesteryear, its church, and its cemetery, where Manet and Debussy are buried.

We will have a short stop at the famous administrative building of Paris, the Hotel de Ville. The Hôtel de Ville de Paris has been the seat of the Paris City Council since 1357. The current building, with a neo-renaissance style, was built by architects Théodore Ballu and Edouard Deperthes on the site of the former Hôtel de Ville, which burned down during the Paris Commune in 1871. Visits to the town hall, a powerful and prestigious place, are possible. Guided tours are offered by reservation only and are organized by the city’s Protocol Department. Visitors can discover the function room, created as a replica of the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles. Free major exhibitions are also organized here and are a great success.

No trip to Paris is complete without a visit to the Latin Quarter in the 5th arrondissement, on the Left Bank. The area’s many cafés and restaurants are laid-back and welcoming; they are filled with Parisians, students, and tourists. There are several attractions to visit, among them the Pantheon, the Luxembourg Gardens, and many museums. As you stroll through the district, you will also come across the Sorbonne, the best-known university in Paris. The district also has popular show venues like the Paradise Latin and the Théâtre de l'Odéon.

Enjoy free or shopping time....We will drive through the most beautiful avenue in the world.

Tourists and Parisians can be spotted strolling at any time of day or night and at any time of year along this iconic two-kilometre stretch between the Place de la Concorde and the Arc de Triomphe.
