With your Paris escort, walk up the metal monstrosity, The Eiffel Tower, and don't take the cable car! Only by slowly walking up step by step through the belly of this giant monument, can you get a real feel for its history and magnitude.

The Eiffel Tower was built for the International Exhibition of Paris of 1889 commemorating the centenary of the French Revolution. The Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII of England, opened the tower. Of the 700 proposals submitted in a design competition, Gustave Eiffel's was unanimously chosen.

There are 2 stages that you can walk up to, and to get to the very top, you need the cable car. At each stage, you can sit down, and enjoy coffee - they do a good cappuccino! At 300 meters (320.75m including antenna), and 7000 tons, it was the world's tallest building until 1930.

From the Place de la Concorde to the top of the Champs-Elysees, you will discover the Place de l'Etoile which is known today as the Place Charles de Gaulle. And, here lies the Arc de Triomphe. The Triumphal Arch dates back to 1806, when Napoleon commissioned Chalgrin to build an arch to the glory of the French Army. Construction on the Arch began in 1806, restarted in 1825, and was not finished until 1836. The Arc de Triomphe is built on the model of ancient Triumphal Arches, but it stands alone because of its monumental size: 50 meters tall and 45 meters wide (164 by 148 feet). The four magnificent high reliefs are crowned by Rude's masterpiece, "The Departure of the Volunteers in 1792"

One of Paris's most famous shows is of course the Moulin Rouge located in the red light district of Pigalle.The current show consists of : a troupe of 100 artists, including the 60 Doriss Girls that were recruited world-wide ; 1000 costumes of feathers, rhinestones and sequins and set up in the most famous Parisian workshops ; sumptuous sets in shimmering colors uniquely designed by Italian artists.

Paris doesn't have too much to offer the English speaking visitor. One option is the multi media show - Thanks to new wide-screen, audio-visual technology and virtual images, Victor Hugo will guide you across the centuries of Parisian history, as you discover the joys and tragedies which have molded the City of Lights.

Another option is the the  show "L'homme aux milles visages"  winner of the "Molière Award 2000" for the Best One Man Show of the year in Paris. On line reservations are recommended.
