Paris – Guided Tour Inside the Palace of Versailles – Guided Tour of the Louvre Museum – Ceramic Gardens

After breakfast at our hotel, we’ll set off for a guided tour inside the magnificent Palace of Versailles, accompanied by our official Greek-speaking guide. The palace — a model for many royal residences across Europe — awaits us with all its grandeur. We’ll explore the royal apartments and the dazzling Hall of Mirrors, a 70-meter-long masterpiece where frescoed ceilings and intricately decorated walls display priceless works from Europe’s finest artists. We’ll also wander through the vast gardens of Versailles, filled with elegant fountains and statues that complete the royal splendor.

Next, we’ll continue our day with a guided visit to the world-famous Louvre Museum. Our walk will begin at the charming Tuileries Gardens (Jardin des Tuileries), where paths lined with trees and flowers lead us to the museum’s entrance. Inside, we’ll explore one of the largest and most visited museums in the world, home to over 30,000 treasures and more than ten million visitors each year.

Together, we’ll tour the Greek and Roman galleries and meet the museum’s three queens — the Venus de Milo, the Winged Victory of Samothrace, and Leonardo da Vinci’s mysterious Mona Lisa. We’ll also admire masterpieces from the Renaissance, as well as exquisite neoclassical and romantic artworks.

After the tour, we’ll have free time to enjoy the city at our own pace. Our tour guide will provide suggestions and directions for optional activities. You can stay longer at the Louvre to explore more of its endless exhibits or take a pleasant stroll through the surrounding area. You might choose to shop in the nearby boutiques, ascend to the Palais de Chaillot for a breathtaking photo of the Eiffel Tower, or even walk toward the tower itself for a closer look. Those who enjoy art can also visit the nearby Musée d’Orsay, once a grand train station built in 1898, now home to remarkable collections of sculptures, paintings, photography, and decorative arts.

In the evening, for an unforgettable Parisian experience, we suggest an optional visit to the legendary Paradis Latin. Designed by Gustave Eiffel, this historic theater hosts a lively show featuring dazzling dancers, classic French can-can numbers, a talented juggler, and an engaging master of ceremonies — a perfect way to end our day in the City of Lights.

 Paris – Full-Day Trip to Disneyland

After enjoying breakfast at our hotel, we’ll set off to discover the magical world of toys — Disneyland Paris! Just under an hour from the city, this enchanting destination stretches across a landscape of lakes, forests, and canals, inviting us into a world of imagination and wonder.

Once inside, we’ll lose ourselves in a whirlwind of color and excitement — dazzling parades, fairy-tale castles, and our favorite Disney characters bringing childhood dreams to life. We’ll sail with the Pirates of the Caribbean, join Indiana Jones on a thrilling adventure in the Land of Adventure, and race beyond the stars aboard a spaceship in Space Mountain. In the Land of Fantasy, we’ll ride the horses of Lancelot’s Carousel and meet beloved characters like Pinocchio, Dumbo, and Snow White with her seven dwarfs. This year, the long-awaited Star Wars attractions have reopened after extensive renovations — an absolute must-see for fans of the saga!

Right next to Disneyland Park, we’ll step into the world of cinema and television at Walt Disney Studios Park. Here, four themed zones promise incredible attractions and spectacular shows — from Crush’s Coaster and Stitch Live! to the high-energy Rock’n’Roller Coaster. We’ll also enjoy the grand daily parade, where Mickey and his friends fill the park with music, color, and magic, ending the celebration with a dazzling finale full of sparkle.

After an unforgettable day packed with fun and memories, we’ll return to Paris in the evening. Please note that this is a full-day excursion, with departure from Disneyland scheduled around 19:00–20:00 (your tour leader will confirm the exact time). If you wish to leave earlier, you can take the RER train directly to central Paris at your own expense — the station is conveniently located right outside the park. To join this excursion, please register at the time of your booking. Entry tickets are available through our local tour guide or directly from the official Disneyland website.

 Paris – Seine River Cruise with Guided Tour – Stroll & Guided Tour of Picturesque Montmartre

After breakfast at our hotel, we’ll head out at noon for another wonderful day in Paris. Together with our tour guide, we’ll make our way to the iconic Eiffel Tower and then enjoy a relaxing cruise along the Seine with Bateaux Parisiens. As we glide gracefully under the city’s legendary bridges, we’ll discover hidden corners and historic landmarks visible only from the water. Circling the Île de la Cité, we’ll marvel at the breathtaking Notre Dame de Paris — a Gothic masterpiece immortalized by Victor Hugo’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

While our guide cannot provide commentary on board due to other passengers, an English-language narration through the ship’s speakers will highlight the many monuments and stories along the riverbanks.

After the cruise, we’ll continue our afternoon with a guided walking tour of the enchanting Montmartre district. Built on a hill overlooking Paris, this bohemian neighborhood has long been the heart of the city’s artistic soul. We’ll visit the stunning Sacré-Cœur Basilica, wander through its picturesque cobblestone alleys, and explore the lively Place du Tertre, where artists display their work in the open air.

As we stroll, we’ll see (from the outside) the former studios of famous painters like Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Picasso — reminders of the area’s vibrant creative past. Afterwards, we’ll enjoy some free time to relax with a drink or a meal at one of Montmartre’s charming bistros, cozy cafés, or atmospheric bars.

Return to the hotel is on your own, giving you the freedom to linger a bit longer in this uniquely artistic corner of Paris.

Paris – Department stores – free day

After breakfast at our hotel, we’ll have the day free to explore the charming markets and shopping districts of Paris. We can begin with a visit to the elegant department stores Galeries Lafayette and Printemps, taking advantage of the discount cards we’ve provided. Their window displays are true works of art — vibrant, colorful, and full of motion, like scenes from a theatrical fantasy. Inside Galeries Lafayette, we’ll be amazed by the magnificent Christmas tree that rises through the center of the building, a dazzling sight from bottom to top.

Alternatively, we can spend the day discovering the character and charm of the Marais district, on the right bank of the Seine. There, we’ll find the modern Centre Georges Pompidou (also known as Beaubourg), home to the Museum of Contemporary and Modern Art. The first three floors house a library, while the museum itself occupies the upper levels, showcasing masterpieces by Picasso, Dalí, Kandinsky, and other visionary artists. The museum boutique is also perfect for unique souvenirs and gifts.

As we wander through the Marais’ picturesque streets, we’ll come across some of the oldest buildings and noble mansions in Paris, eventually reaching the elegant Place des Vosges, where Victor Hugo’s former home stands. In this beautiful square, we can relax at one of the stylish cafés, discover hidden gardens, and browse avant-garde art galleries.

To end the day, we might enjoy a drink or a meal in one of the area’s inviting bistros or lively bars — a perfect way to savor the Parisian atmosphere one last time.

After breakfast at our hotel, we’ll prepare our belongings and leave our luggage in the hotel’s designated storage area before noon. Let’s make sure to confirm our meeting time for the transfer to the airport. Depending on our flight schedule, we’ll have some free time to enjoy our last moments in Paris — perhaps doing a bit of shopping, taking a few final photos, or visiting a museum we haven’t yet seen.

When it’s time, we’ll transfer to the airport for our return flight to Athens, bringing with us wonderful memories of our unforgettable journey through the City of Lights.
