Paris Segway Night Tour


The Segway tour is the perfect tour for both those new to the city and Parisian veterans. For the beginners, this tour will offer you a fantastic orientation and give you an opportunity to see virtually all of the sites you’ve read about. For the veterans, we’re positive you’ll learn new facts and stories about Paris that you’ve never heard. And we’re sure you’ll both agree that riding a Segway is the best way to see the ‘City of Light’.

Highlights of the tour include:

*
The Eiffel Tower – the symbol of Paris. Built for the World Exposition of 1889 and stood as the tallest building in the world until New York's Chrysler building in 1930.
*
Napoleon's Tomb – originally built by King Louis XIV, now the resting place of the most famous Frenchman in history.
*
The Louvre Museum – originally built as a fort by King Philippe-Auguste in 1190, now one of the grandest museums in the world. The most famous works include the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo and Winged Victory of Samothrace.
* Arc de Triomphe – commissioned by Napoléon to honor his army’s victory and another symbol of Paris.
*
Champs Elysées – the most famous avenue in the world.
*
Musée D’Orsay – originally a train station and now the museum of Impressionist paintings.
*
Also see the Ecole Militaire, Les Invalides, Alexander III Bridge, Grand and Petit Palais, Place de la Concorde and more!
