For a set fee of $116 per person, you’ll hop into a vintage pink Citroën 2CV, a car that’s become a symbol of French charm. Your driver-guide will navigate through the city’s streets, stopping at key sights and fashionable districts, all while sharing stories that bring Paris’s history to life.

The duration is flexible, ranging from 1.5 to 3 hours, which means you can tailor the experience depending on your schedule.

Why We Love This Tour

The real magic of this experience lies in the combination of vintage style and personalized storytelling. The pink 2CV isn’t just for show; it sets an authentic, retro tone that makes for fantastic photos and a fun, relaxed ride. We also appreciate how the guide offers insights into the city’s architecture and stories, turning a sightseeing drive into a mini-lesson on Parisian elegance and history.

Another highlight is the mix of landmarks and shopping districts. You’ll get to see Paris’s most famous sights like the Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe, but also venture into less touristy, fashion-centric neighborhoods like Rue Saint-Honoré and Place Vendôme. This blend offers a well-rounded snapshot of Paris, from its historic grandeur to its haute couture roots.

What to Keep in Mind

A potential drawback is timing — since the tour can last up to 3 hours, travelers with tight schedules may want to plan carefully. Also, those sensitive to car rides or open-air vehicles should consider the weather, as the 2CV is a convertible and may not be suitable in rain or cold unless weather permitting.
