From Le Havre, a panoramic drive takes you to Paris via the freeway.
Upon arrival in Paris, relax as you take an orientation tour by motorcoach. Watch for the main highlights. Place de la Concorde is a perfect expression of the Louis XV style, designed by Ange-Jacques Gabriel in 1755 and completed over 20 years. The Eiffel Tower is Paris' most famous icon; it opened in 1889 for the Universal Exhibition. The Opéra de Paris Garnier is the home of beautiful ballets. Your guide will also point out the Arc de Triomphe and Place de
l'Etoile, the Louvre -- one of the world's greatest museums -- and Vendome Square, home to jewelers and bankers.
The banks of the Seine River feature famous bridges such as Alexandre III. You'll spy the Conciergerie -- once the prison of Queen of France Marie Antoinette.
Afterward, make the most of some free time for lunch (at your own expense) and to sightsee on your own.
You will return directly to Le Havre by freeway.
