From Le Havre: Shopping and Dining Shore Excursion to Paris – Paris, France

EXPERIENCE:

This fascinating Paris shore excursion commences at the Le Havre cruise ship port.

Our tours are tailored to the ships’ docking times, ensuring a prompt start and punctual return with plenty of time to spare before your departure.

After you come out of the cruise terminal, head out of the security gate. It is about a 3 minute walk, 1000 feet / 300 meters. Our greeters will be waiting just outside the gate with “Vexperio” signs. They will escort you onto your bus. Sit back and relax for the 3-hour drive to Paris.

Your first stop will be the Eiffel Tower. Get off the bus, stretch your legs, and take in the view of one of the most famous monuments in the world! Here you will meet your professional tour guide, who will animate the city’s history with their fascinating stories and insightful commentary, making your tour an unforgettable experience.

From here you will embark on a journey to explore the most renowned landmarks of the city. See Les Invalides, a sacred military hospital which is the site of Napoleon’s tomb. Marvel at the grandeur of Place de la Concorde, one of the most important sites of the French Revolution. Next, arrive at the legendary Champs-Élysées, with the iconic Arc de Triomphe.

You will have plenty of free time in this exciting area that draws millions of visitors every year. As you stroll along the avenue, you’ll be surrounded by a dazzling array of cafes, luxury shops, and boutiques, offering everything from high-end fashion and designer jewelry to unique and charming souvenirs. Make a stop at the famous Galleries Lafayette, a mecca for fashion lovers and trendsetters alike. With its lively cafes and gourmet restaurants, this avenue is a foodie’s paradise. Indulge in the exquisite local cuisine and enjoy the finest French wines and cheeses.

After a full day of Francophile delights, you will be whisked back to your ship on our comfortable coach bus, brimming with new memories to last a lifetime!

Please note as the French capital is far from the port, you have limited time for exploration. This shore excursion offers a panoramic tour of significant sights, followed by free time for shopping and dining around the Champs-Élysées. If you are interested in more extensive sightseeing, we recommend our other Parisian shore excursion, “From Le Havre: Paris Guided Day Trip”. Due to the limited time in port, it is impossible to combine shopping, a sit-down meal, and extensive sightseeing. Decide which option suits you best, and we’ll ensure unforgettable memories.

Whichever of the two versions of this tour you choose: have trust in our decade-long experience in organizing shore excursions and explore the shores with us in comfort, with peace of mind. Booking a tour during your cruise can be stressful, but not with us! Our tours are adjusted to your ship’s schedule, ensuring that you have plenty of time to enjoy the day without worrying about making it back to the ship on time.
