One of the must-see sights in the French capital is undoubtedly the imposing Eiffel Tower. As well as being able to take a guided tour or go up on your own, I invite you to buy tickets for the Flyview experience in Paris, so you can see the tower from the air.

It is virtual reality, yes, but with some additions that will make you feel like you are really in the air. The illusion is total, you will feel like you have a jetpack (jetpack) that will take you through Paris to the Eiffel Tower. In addition, the Flyview includes a guide who will tell you in detail the places you fly over, as well as their history.

One of the best options to get to know another side of Paris and experience all the adrenaline of the flight with the peace of mind of the simulation.

Experience this virtual reality adventure and visit one of Paris' most acclaimed architectural icons, the Opéra Garnier, from the air. Built by the French architect Charles Garnier and inaugurated in 1875, the Opera or Palais Garnier has become one of the most visited buildings in the French capital. Its majesty, both inside and out, and its dome painted by Marc Chagall, make it a work of art in itself.

With Flyview, you will have the opportunity to fly over the building and see every detail up close. Together with your guide, you can learn why the ornamentation on the façade and other secrets. Of course, if you still want to walk around the interior and visit the museum, you can book tickets for the Opéra Garnier in Paris.

Located next to the Seine, on the Ile Saint Louis, the Notre Dame de Paris Cathedral is, next to Sacre Coeur, the most visited religious building in the city.

In April 2019, due to an accident, a large part of the mythical cathedral went up in flames. Since then, a major reconstruction has been underway, limiting pedestrian access to some of the cloisters.

With this immersive virtual reality experience, you can fly over the Parisian cathedral. An unparalleled adventure through one of the most moving places for locals and tourists from all over the world. And if you still want to see the inside of the cathedral, be sure to book a tour of Notre Dame Cathedral.

Another of the virtual tours you can take during the Flyview experience in Paris is through some of the most important sites in France: you can fly over Mont Saint Michel, located in the Normandy region. An ideal destination to tour from the air, as it is located on a rocky island. Its small but picturesque village and its abbey at the top are well worth a visit.

Another of the destinations you will visit on this adventure is Mont Blanc. The aerial views of this snow-capped colossus are not available on a traditional tour, so you can't miss the chance to see this colossus through virtual technology.

Here are some options to explore the City of Light in depth. Guided tours, boat trips on the Seine, museums and much more.

Take a tour of one of Paris' favourite neighbourhoods: the Latin Quarter

If, after getting your feet back on the ground, you want to get a taste of the city's university and intellectual charm, you can't miss out on one of the best tours of Paris' Latin Quarter. Along with Saint Germain de Prés, the Latin Quarter or Quartier Latin was a favourite haunt of thinkers and literati such as Simone de Beauvoir, Jean Paul Sartre and Boris Vian.

A tour of the Latin Quarter of Paris will allow you to discover all the charm of Paris and, thanks to your specialised local guide, you will learn the stories of the revolts in the neighbourhood during May '68.

Discover Paris from the Seine on board a cruise ship

The River Seine divides Paris in two, and its banks are home to some of the must-see highlights of any visit to the French capital. From the Musée d'Orsay, the Louvre, the Jardin de Plantes to the Trocadero and the Eiffel Tower, the Seine is a prime location. What better way to explore it than on board a sightseeing cruise.
