Our special tour will drive you in the heart of this "city of lights" : you will discover the Champs Elysées avenue, specially decorated for the occasion, then you will see the famous Eiffel Tower which shines with a thousand lights (and sparkles for 5 minutes at the beginning of each hour), followed by the Arc de Triomphe, passing by the rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, the Place Vendôme, or the majestic Hôtel de Ville, the numerous illuminated Parisian bridges or the Opéra Garnier and the Grands Magasins and its Christmas windows displays.

Christmas markets, a tradition in Paris not to be missed

After discovering the main sites of our illuminations tour and if you have some more time to spare, your chauffeur can also drive you to see of one the traditional markets in Paris. During Christmas season, there are plenty of chalets which are set up all over Paris to reveal a friendly, festive and enchanting atmosphere in Paris.

Christmas markets remain a tradition not to be missed in France during the end of the year, between November and the end of December, during the day and in the evening. Between the traditional market of the Champs-Élysées, the one of Notre-Dame, Les Halles or the market of Tuileries, you will be able to stroll between one of these markets and you will do some shopping or even drink a glass of mulled wine.

The magic of Christmas windows to discover too...

Another tradition in Paris not to be missed during this festive season is to admire the Christmas windows of the Parisian department stores. Your private chauffeur will drive you to the department stores that you prefer to see and will wait for you as long as necessary during your stroll.

Every Parisian department store has its own identity, its history, and its traditions. In addition to being mythical in Paris, Galeries Lafayette and Printemps Haussmann are the two Parisian department stores which honor the magic of this memorable season. At Galeries Lafayette, you can admire the big tree decorated under its majestic dome or see the Christmas windows displays at Printemps Haussmann with decorations and lively automatons.

There are also other stores in Paris which are sublimated by the end of the year thanks to illuminations and decorations such as the BHV Marais, Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche or the Samaritaine.
