Paris Full-Day Private Tour

Versailles, Eiffel Tower Summit, Seine Cruise and Wine Tasting with CDG Airport Transfer

A complete Paris experience, from royal palaces to river views, all in one private day tour.


This Paris private full-day tour with CDG transfer combines four landmark experiences into a single seamless journey. Starting directly from Charles de Gaulle Airport, guests visit the Palace of Versailles, ascend to the Eiffel Tower summit, cruise the Seine River, and sample French wines at a local wine shop.

Paris can be overwhelming for first-time visitors, especially those arriving by air with limited time. This tour removes the guesswork by providing private door-to-door transportation throughout the day, so guests spend their hours exploring rather than navigating public transit.

The route is designed to flow logically across the city and its surroundings. The day begins with a one-hour drive to Versailles, continues back toward central Paris for the river cruise and Eiffel Tower visit, and concludes with a wine tasting stop before the final transfer.

All entrance tickets are included, covering the Palace of Versailles with an audio guide, the Eiffel Tower third floor (summit), and the one-hour Seine River cruise aboard Bateaux Parisiens. Approximately three hours of the nine-hour tour are spent in private transportation.

Tour Highlights

Guided visit of the Palace of Versailles, former seat of French royal power, with an audio guide included.

Access to the Eiffel Tower third floor summit, offering panoramic views across the Paris skyline.

One-hour Seine River cruise aboard Bateaux Parisiens with recorded commentary highlighting riverside monuments.

Wine tasting stop at a Paris wine shop to sample a selection of French wines.

Private door-to-door transfer from CDG Airport throughout the entire day, with no shared vehicles.

All entrance tickets pre-included for Versailles, the Eiffel Tower summit, and the Seine cruise.

Audio guide inside the Palace of Versailles and recorded commentary on the river cruise enhance the experience.
