The tower is 324 metres (1,063 ft) tall, about the same height as an 81-storey building, and the tallest structure in Paris. Its base is square, measuring 125 metres (410 ft) on each side.
Pont des Invalides
Pass by
Your Gentleman Sider will take you to the historical site of "Les Invalides", or also as Hôtel des Invalides, which is a complex of buildings in the 7th arrondissement of Paris, France, containing museums and monuments, all relating to the military history of France, as well as a hospital and a retirement home for war veterans. The buildings house the Musée de l'Armée, the military museum of the Army of France, the Musée des Plans-Reliefs, and the Musée d'Histoire Contemporaine, as well as the Dôme des Invalides, a large church, the tallest in Paris at a height of 107 meters, with the tombs of some of France's war heroes, most notably Napoleon.
Saint Germain des Pres Quarter
Pass by
The ride will take you across Saint-Germain-des-Prés which is one of the four administrative quarters of the 6th arrondissement of Paris, France, located around the church of the former Abbey of Saint-Germain-des-Prés. Its official borders are the River Seine on the north, the rue des Saints-Pères on the west, between the rue de Seine and rue Mazarine on the east, and the rue du Four on the south. Residents of the quarter are known as Germanopratins.
The quarter has several famous cafés, including Les Deux Magots, Café de Flore, le Procope, and the Brasserie Lipp, and a large number of bookstores and publishing houses. In the 1940s and 1950s, it was the centre of the existentialist movement (associated with Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir). It is also home to the École des Beaux-Arts, the famed school of fine arts, and the Musée national Eugène Delacroix, in the former apartment and studio of painter Eugène Delacroix.
Palais Garnier
Pass by
Live an incredible experience and stop in front of the famous Palais Garnier which is a 1,979-seat opera house, which was built from 1861 to 1875 for the Paris Opera. It was called the Salle des Capucines, because of its location on the Boulevard des Capucines in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, but soon became known as the Palais Garnier, in recognition of its opulence and its architect, Charles Garnier. The theatre is also often referred to as the Opéra Garnier as it was the primary home of the Paris Opera and its associated Paris Opera Ballet.

This experience exceeded all of our expectations!
This was the highlight of our 5 day visit to Paris. First of all, being in my late 70's, I am not someone you would picture in the sidecar of a motorcycle. But, my son took me to Paris and we wanted to see more of the city than just the tourist attractions. We spent a perfect Saturday evening traveling from the Left Bank through various parts of the city, finally climbing up the streets of Monmarte. There, we joined hundreds of others at the Sacré-Cœur looking down on the lights of Paris; a magical experience. This journey on the motorcycle, with the old lady in the side car, created a special memory for both of us.

This experience was so...
This experience was so incredibly fun!! My husband and I went on the 'Paris by night' sunset ride. Our guide, Peter, was fantastic! So fun, took us through main streets and back streets so we could get the best local flavor. The stop for champagne and the offer to stop whenever to take pictures was a nice touch! Peter came ready with all the gear...more than expected but was happy to have - blanket, gloves, helmet, etc. We couldn't wipe the huge smiles off our faces the whole time!!

Two days , two tunforgettable experiences
I do not know where to start!!! I did both a night tour and a half-day tour. I extended the night tour to include a Christmas market.
My sidecar guide was Grégoire. What an unbelievable experience!! Cold, rain, etc, it didn't matter. Of all the times I have been to Paris, these were by far the most unique, fun, and informative tours I have ever taken. Grégoire went above and beyond. I felt I had made a friend.
I felt 100% safe ( and I don't ride motorcycles in my everyday life). It is worth every penny. I can't recommend it highly enough. It's an entirely different perspective of a city you've seen before.
My only regret is that my wife was not with me on this trip. She would have loved this

Motorcycle side car tour
During our Pairs trip in 2023 we had a wonderful experience with the Retro Tour on the motorcycle side car.
It was an unbelievable tour to remember.
We saw so much of Pairs in 2 hours.
Highly recommend.

Highlight of our Time in Paris
We did a night tour of the right bank, and it was the highlight of our trip. We considered cancelling because we were worried it would be too cold for a motorcycle/sidecar tour, and we are so glad we didn't. Our guide picked us up at our hotel and showed us the sights. We toured all through Montmartre and had a special top at the Sacre Coeur. We were able to go inside at night when there were very few people, which allowed to take it all in without feeling rushed. There were few people on the streets on a cold January night, and it made the tour even more enjoyable. I recommend this to all who are visiting Paris.

WOW! Great tour!!
Had a great time on the Retro sidecar tour of Paris at night. We had 2 tour guides; William and Ugo. We chose to go to Montmartre which is excellent to do at night. The champagne option was the icing on the cake.

Most fun in Paris!
I did this tour with my adult son on a summer evening. It was the most fun! We each rode in a side ca so we had two tour guides: Aristide and Chris. They were personable and points out interesting landmarks. This is not to be missed and if you can request a tour guide I would recommend either of these gentlemen!

Best way to celebrate our anniversary!
We had a great time! Good opportunity to see the streets of Paris and popular attractions. We learned a lot about the history of Paris through our guide Roman who was both knowledgeable and made a huge effort to give us a great time and picture opportunities. 10/10 would recommend
