The Classic, Perfected
This is Paris without the queues and guesswork. Mornings inside the Louvre before the crowds, afternoons in Le Marais with a guide who knows every gallery owner, evenings on the Seine as the city lights flicker on. We handle museum passes, metro cards and restaurant bookings — you handle the croissants.
Mid-trip we escape to Versailles for palace halls and garden picnics, then slow down with a free day in Montmartre. Groups are capped at 20, led by our Europe lead Marco Bellini and local Parisian guides.
