Paris is best explored on foot, by bike or from the top deck of an open-top bus. Walking tours cover the classic neighbourhoods: Montmartre's artist studios and Sacre-Coeur, the medieval streets of Le Marais, the bohemian Latin Quarter and the grand boulevards of Saint-Germain. Food tours pair neighbourhood walks with stops at fromageries, patisseries and wine bars. Bike tours follow the Seine's car-free quays and cut through the Tuileries, Luxembourg and Bois de Boulogne.

Day trips from Paris reach Versailles in 40 minutes, Monet's garden at Giverny in 75 minutes, and the D-Day beaches of Normandy in a full day. The Loire Valley, Champagne region and Mont Saint-Michel are all reachable as day trips with return transport included. Hop-on hop-off bus tours loop past every major landmark with multilingual commentary.

Choosing the right Paris tour

Walking tours are the best value and the most immersive way to discover a neighbourhood. Most last 2 to 3 hours and are led by local guides who know the hidden courtyards, street art and back stories. Food tours combine walking with 6 to 10 tastings over 3 hours. Bike tours cover more ground (15 to 20km) in the same time and work well for families.

Day trips suit visitors with 4+ days in Paris who want to see the surrounding region. Versailles is the most popular and can be done in a half day. Giverny, Champagne and Normandy need a full day. Mont Saint-Michel is the longest day trip (12 to 14 hours) but the most dramatic.
