Private Paris Tour from Le Havre
A full-day private journey from your cruise pier to the heart of the French capital
This private Paris shore excursion from Le Havre takes you directly from your cruise pier to the most celebrated landmarks of the French capital, all within a single, carefully paced day. Your guide picks you up at the port and returns you in time for your ship departure.
The itinerary covers the Champs-Elysées, the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, and several of the city's most storied squares and monuments. Because the group is entirely private, the pace and priorities can be adjusted to suit your party.
