Paris by Night: Exclusive Segway Night Tour with a Local Guide

Glide through the illuminated streets of the City of Light on a guided Segway adventure


The Paris Segway night tour is a 90-minute guided experience that takes you past the most celebrated landmarks in the French capital after dark. Your local guide leads the way, offering historical context and insider perspectives at every stop. This is one of the most distinctive ways to explore Paris in a single evening.

The tour begins with a short orientation on how to operate a Segway, making it accessible to first-time riders. Once comfortable, you set off through the heart of Paris, covering a route that would take considerably longer on foot.

As daylight fades, the city transforms. Floodlit monuments, glowing bridges, and the famous Eiffel Tower light show create a atmosphere that is difficult to replicate during daytime visits. The pace of the Segway allows you to absorb each scene without rushing.

Your local guide connects historical facts to each landmark as you move through the route, from Napoleonic-era institutions to Belle Epoque masterpieces built for the 1900 Universal Exhibition. The combination of movement and storytelling makes the experience both engaging and memorable.

Tour Highlights

Ride a Segway through central Paris at night with a knowledgeable local guide leading the way.

Witness the Eiffel Tower fully illuminated, including its spectacular light display, from Champ de Mars.

Pass by the Louvre pyramid at sunset, one of the most photographed moments on this route.

Discover the history of Hotel des Invalides, Musee d'Orsay, and the Grand and Petit Palais in a single loop.

Cross paths with the ornate Pont Alexandre III, widely regarded as the most beautiful bridge in Paris.

Cover a route spanning Place de la Concorde, the Tuileries, and the banks of the Seine in 90 minutes.

Enjoy a small-group format that keeps the experience personal and allows time for questions at each stop.

Tour Itinerary

1
Hotel des Invalides and Military Museum

Commissioned by Louis XIV in 1670 to house and care for wounded soldiers, Les Invalides is one of Paris's most imposing monuments. It also contains the tomb of Napoleon Bonaparte. Your guide shares the military and political history behind this landmark before the group moves on.

2
Pont Alexandre III and the Seine

Built for the 1900 World Fair, this bridge is considered the finest in Paris for its ornate Art Nouveau lampposts, gilded statues, and sweeping views of the river. The stop here offers a scenic pause and an opportunity for photographs.

3
Petit Palais, Grand Palais, and Place de la Concorde

Both palaces were constructed for the 1900 Universal Exhibition and remain landmarks of French architectural ambition. Nearby, Place de la Concorde, the largest square in Paris, carries a layered history stretching from royal ceremonies to the Revolution.

4
The Louvre and Musee d'Orsay

Originally a 12th-century fortress, the Louvre evolved into a royal palace before becoming one of the world's most visited museums. The Musee d'Orsay, a converted train station built for the 1900 World's Fair, sits along the opposite bank of the Seine.

5
Eiffel Tower and Champ de Mars

The tour concludes at the Eiffel Tower, constructed by Gustave Eiffel for the 1889 World Exhibition and originally intended as a temporary structure. Viewed from Champ de Mars at night, with the tower fully lit, this final stop is the natural centerpiece of the evening.
