Your expert guide shares stories about the city’s maritime past and its evolution into a haven for artists, enhancing the connection between the scenery and history.

An ideal choice for travelers who want something more immersive than a typical walking tour, it highlights not only the city’s architectural gems but also reveals quieter, less-traveled paths where natural flora and tranquil views abound.
Whether you’re a cycling enthusiast or a casual rider, the electric bike’s pedal assist provides a smooth, effortless journey, letting you focus on the surroundings instead of physical strain. The route offers multiple photo opportunities, including dramatic harbor panoramas and scenic views overlooking the Seine estuary.
