Paris Day Bicycle Tour

Our Day Bike Tour is the perfect tour for both those new to the city and Parisian veterans. For the beginners, this tour will offer you a fantastic orientation and give you an opportunity to see virtually all of the sites you’ve read about. For the veterans, we’re positive you’ll learn new facts and stories about Paris that you’ve never heard. And we’re sure you’ll both agree that biking is the best way to see the ‘City of Light’. We also stop for lunch during this tour.

Highlights of the tour include:

• The Eiffel Tower – the symbol of Paris. Built for the World Exposition of 1889 and stood as the tallest building in the world until New York's Chrysler building in 1930.
• Napoleon's Tomb – originally built by King Louis XIV, now the resting place of the most famous Frenchman in history.
• The Louvre Museum – originally built as a fort by King Philippe-Auguste in 1190, now one of the grandest museums in the world. The most famous works include the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo and Winged Victory of Samothrace.
• Arc de Triomphe – commissioned by Napoléon to honor his army’s victory and another symbol of Paris.
• Champs Elysées – the most famous avenue in the world.
• Tuileries Gardens – beautiful gardens in the middle of the city where we’ll settle down for lunch at a café nestled in the chestnut trees (price not included).
• Musée D’Orsay – originally a train station and now the museum of Impressionist paintings.
• Also see the Ecole Militaire, Rodin Museum, Les Invalides, Alexander III Bridge, Grand and Petit Palais, Place de la Concorde, UNESCO and more!

Comparison of Day Tour vs. Night Tour
Many customers want to know the difference between our Day and Night Tours.

First, the routes and information provided are completely different.

The Day Tour is where you'll get the most information about Paris. We hear one of two comments most often after the Day Tour. Either, "Wow, I'm so glad I took this because now I know what I'm going to do the next few days while I'm in the city" or we hear, "I can't believe I'm leaving tonight because there's so much more here that I didn't know about and I've missed it all."

The Night Tour is simply beautiful. There is more riding involved and slightly less information than the Day tour, but the city at night is fantastic! It is a more relaxed atmosphere than our Day Tour as the wine tends to loosen everyone up a bit.

Most of our customers take both of our tours. However, if you're not sure you want to take both, we suggest you take whichever one sounds most interesting to you, and then you can decide at that point if you enjoyed it enough to ride with us a second time. We think we know what your answer will be…
