Hop-On/Hop-Off Bus Tour: River Cruise with Eiffel Tower and Louvre

This 24-hour hop-on, hop-off bus pass with ten stops will allow you to see the best and most famous sights in Paris. See beautiful places like Notre Dame from the water on the Seine River or get up on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower accompanied by a guide.

Begin your journey by meeting your guide near the Eiffel Tower. With your guide`s assistance, you will marvel at the spectacular views over Paris from the second floor, or the top, if you booked this option. Group tours do not provide the same sense of freedom as your own exploration of the city.

A sightseeing bus tour with panoramic views will allow you to fully enjoy this stunning city. You have ten stops to visit the most interesting places. There is an onboard audio guide, available in 8 languages, for your comfortable listening to comments about the city’s landmarks, from Napoleon’s Arc de Triomphe at the end of the Champs-Elysées to the magnificent Opera Garnier.

This excursion package also includes a one-hour cruise on the Seine River, where you will admire the buildings located along the embankment of the river. Take the UNESCO-listed structures that line the riverbanks, as well as the breathtaking views of the Eiffel Tower, Les Invalides, Notre-Dame de Paris, and the Conciergerie. On your way, marvel at floating restaurants and nice houseboats. After returning to land, continue seeing the sights on the hop-on, hop-off bus tour.
