Arc de Triomphe
The Arc de Triomphe is a Neoclassical take on the ancient Roman triumphal arch style. Fifty meters tall, the view from the platform atop the arch is well worth the hike. See the dozen Parisian avenues radiating out from the arch into the City of Light. Paris is one of the most fascinating places in the world and you will find yourself right at its center. The view from the top of the arch is worth climbing the 284 stairs. From your privileged position, survey all of Paris. Unlike the obligatory Eiffel Tower trip, getting into the Arc de Triomphe is an effort not all tourists undertake.
Inspired by the great arches of ancient Rome, Napoleon commissioned the Arc de Triomphe shortly after his victory at Austerlitz. Unfortunately, he never lived to see its completion. At the base of the arch, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier pays tribute to the 1.3 million French soldiers who died in World War I. Behold the eternal flame that is rekindled at 6.30 PM each evening. In addition, there is a must-see exhibition that explains the symbolic importance of this monument.
Seine River Cruise
Explore the city of love with a romantic river cruise! Seeing Paris from the Seine is an experience to remember forever.
There’s the Eiffel Tower casting its shadow over the city, and Notre-Dame Cathedral, still impressive despite the disastrous fire. Gaze at the Gothic palace and former prison known as the Conciergerie, and see the Musée d’Orsay, a former railway station that’s now home to French art. This scenic tour includes commentary along the route. Listen, learn, and fall in love!
