Cruise Port Guide
The bucket-list things to do — and the private, expert-led way to do each.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, and the private, small-group, or expert-led way to make it yours — your own pace, real access, none of the crowd.
Ascend Gustave Eiffel's iron masterpiece to the glass-floored summit for panoramic views over Paris, then raise a glass of Champagne at the iconic bar — the most storied bucket-list moment in France.
Dine inside the Eiffel Tower itself at Alain Ducasse's Michelin-starred Le Jules Verne — arguably the most theatrical restaurant setting on earth, with floor-to-ceiling views of illuminated Paris.
Explore Jean Nouvel's extraordinary riverside museum in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower, home to 700,000 indigenous art objects from Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Americas — led by an expert private guide.
Glide past the illuminated Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame, and the Louvre from a private luxury river boat as Paris turns gold at dusk — the city's most romantic and visually overwhelming perspective.
Climb the original wrought-iron spiral staircase designed by Gustave Eiffel himself — a rarely-chosen alternative to the lift that reveals 1,665 steps of engineering genius and intimate iron-lace detail.
Walk the streets of the 7th arrondissement as they were in 1889 with an expert historian guide — tracing the birth of the Eiffel Tower through the Champ de Mars, École Militaire, and the grand mansions of the Belle Époque.
