Paris Night Bicycle Tour
Our Night Bike Tour is the way to experience the 'City of Light' at it’s best. We’ll cruise through town as the city lights up around us and see Paris from both bike and boat (free wine is included on our boat cruise). Make no mistake! This is not a substitute for the comprehensive Day Tour - rather a perfect complement and great evening activity! We do not stop for dinner on the Night Tour so either eat before or bring a snack with you.
Highlights of the tour include:
- Notre Dame - the most famous cathedral on the planet. Learn about the famous flying buttresses, the history inside the cathedral and how Paris can trace its roots to the Ile de la Cité. We typically arrive at sunset so have your camera ready!
- The Boat Cruise – the most popular activity of the Night Tour is our cruise up and down the Seine through the heart of the illuminated ‘City of Light’. Sail past the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, the Louvre, Hotel de Ville and Musée D'Orsay just to name a few. The cruise lasts about one hour and most people don't want to disembark from the boat afterwards.
- The Louvre Museum – this is a truly magical place at night. Standing in the back courtyard of the Louvre will make you feel that you've been launched back into medieval times. The lighting is spectacular!
- Berthillon Ice Cream – by far the most famous ice cream shop in Paris. If you like, buy a scoop of about 20 offered flavors as we tell you about the early history of Paris. We eat on the Pont (bridge) St. Louis, connecting the Ile de la Cité and the Ile St. Louis, which provides us with one of the most beautiful vistas the city has to offer.
- Also see the Eiffel Tower, the Cité and St. Louis islands, St. Chapelle, the Latin Quarter, Academie Francaise, the Pont des Arts, the Champs-Elysées, Princess Di's Flame, the Arc de Triomphe and much 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 (over 68%) 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…
