This tour offers the unique possibility to visit Old Paris, the Notre Dame Cathedral, to take a Seine river cruise and visit the second floor of the Eiffel Tower with guided commentary in the space of one day. Enjoy no waiting in line on your tour with Gray Line Paris. We offer perfectly combined tours to discover Paris from east to west and to go back to Paris birth.
Paris was created some 2000 years ago and began at the Cite Island (Ile de la Cite). With emphasis on the history and art of the Capital this tour includes: a drive through the oldest part: the Marais district and its "hotels", private town-houses of the nobility 3 or 4 centuries ago, the Latin Quarter with the Sorbonne, the Luxembourg gardens, Saint-Germain-des-Pres district with its old church and its famous cafes, a guided visit to the interior of Notre-Dame Cathedral* and a short short transfer by boat to approach and leave the Cite Island (unless the river is too high). Before returning back to Place des Pyramides, you will admire the rigorous geometry of the Vendome Square and the surprising architecture of the "Garnier" Opera, near the department stores.
A strong characteristic of the French people is the respect they have for their history and the restoration of their national monuments. The result of this preservation of the past has greatly contributed to the beauty of Paris today, with its unique perspectives, geometric squares, sculptures and monuments. This tour concentrates on showing Paris to the visitor from two different angles : Above and below. From the Eiffel Tower we enjoy a 360 degree panoramic view of the capital from on high. From the River Seine cruise, visitors will be captivated by an original viewing angle of the monuments and bridges from below.

The final day in our series of one-day Western Front battlefield visits takes us to the line between Armentieres and Arras, dubbed the nursery trenches. On this day we visit sites connected with the 1915 battles of Aubers Ridge, Festubert, and Neuve Chapelle, where the Indian Army gave a magnificent account of itself, and the 1917 Battle of Arras. We see where Adolf Hitler served and the bunker he is reputed to have used as a billet. Australians will be touched at seeing the 'Cobbers' Memorial in Fromelles. An archaeological investigation during 2009 exhumed many soldiers remains from mass graves, and these bodies will be re-interred during 2010 in the new cemetery that is being constructed opposite the exhumation site by Pheasant Wood . We cross the Loos battlefield, site of the disastrous battle of 1915. For Canadians, Vimy Ridge is undoubtedly the highlight, where we take a trench tour and spend time at the massive and imposing Vimy memorial. We also see sites in and around the pretty city of Arras connected with the huge battle of 1917. If time, we see the French National memorial at Notre Dame de Lorette before returning to our Lille departure point.
