If you want to see the best of France without missing the essentials, a city highlights and sightseeing tour is the perfect choice. In Paris, these tours bring together the icons every first-time visitor hopes to see, including the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, the Champs-Élysées, Notre-Dame and the Seine, in one well-planned and efficient experience.
Sightseeing tours are ideal for short stays and busy itineraries, giving you a confident overview of a city before you dive deeper. Across France, from the boulevards of Paris to the harbours of Nice and the old town of Lyon, highlights tours help you tick off the landmarks while learning the stories behind them.
Over France
Paris packs an extraordinary number of world-famous sights into a compact area, which is why it is such a rewarding city for sightseeing. A single tour can take in the Eiffel Tower, Trocadéro, the Arc de Triomphe, the Louvre and the Île de la Cité, giving you the classic Paris experience in a few hours.
Beyond Paris, France's other cities each offer their own highlights, from the Promenade des Anglais in Nice to the grand squares of Bordeaux. Sightseeing tours are the fastest way to orient yourself and decide where to spend more time later.

De beste tijd voor een bezoek
Late spring (April-June) and early autumn (September-October) are ideal nationwide, with pleasant weather, gardens and vineyards in fine form, and lighter crowds. Summer (July-August) is warm and lively but busy, and many Parisians decamp on holiday.
Provence's lavender peaks in late June to mid-July, and the wine harvest colours Bordeaux and Burgundy in September. The Alps shine for skiing December to March. Highlights include Bastille Day on 14 July, the Cannes Film Festival in May and the Nice Carnival in February.
Vervoer
France's high-speed TGV rail network is superb, connecting Paris with Lyon, Bordeaux, Marseille and beyond in just a few hours, making the train the best way to hop between cities. Within Paris, the metro, RER and buses cover everything cheaply, and the city is very walkable.
Regional TER trains and buses reach smaller towns, though a rental car is invaluable for the Loire chateaux, Provence villages and Burgundy vineyards. On the Riviera, coastal trains link the resort towns conveniently. Book TGV tickets in advance for the best fares.
