Private 5-Hour Paris Tour with Local Guide + Seine Cruise｜France

See Paris through the eyes of a local. Your private 5-hour journey with René—a lifelong Parisian with a degree in Languages & Civilizations—blends essential landmarks, hidden details, and smart pacing.

Part 1 — The Historical Heart
Begin on the Île de la Cité, cradle of the city and home to Notre-Dame (exterior). Trace the medieval skyline past the Conciergerie, Sainte-Chapelle façades and the Pont Neuf. Walk toward the Louvre (exterior) and the Tuileries Garden while uncovering stories from the Parisii tribe to the kingdom of Saint Louis.

Transition — Ride the Métro
Skip long crossings and experience everyday Paris with a short metro ride. René shows you how locals navigate—and shares quick tips for the rest of your stay.

Part 2 — Montmartre & the Belle Époque
Climb to Montmartre for artists’ ateliers, café corners and sweeping views from Sacré-Cœur. Hear about Toulouse-Lautrec, Picasso & the cabarets, and how the Belle Époque shaped the neighborhood.

Seine River Cruise included
Cap your tour with a 1-hour Seine cruise (flexible timing before/after the walk) to photograph Notre-Dame, the Louvre, the bridges and the Eiffel Tower from the water.

Flexible & seasonal
This is a private tour: pace, photo stops and focus adapt to you. From late November to early January, we can weave in Paris Christmas lights and a market stop (subject to dates and crowd levels).

Why Voilà Tours
