One of the must-see sights in the French capital is, without a doubt, the imposing Eiffel Tower. Besides being able to take a guided tour or go up on your own, I invite you to buy tickets for the Flyview experience in Paris, so you can appreciate the tower from the air.

It is virtual reality, yes, but with some additions that will make you feel that you are really in the air. The illusion is total, you will feel like you have a jetpack (jetpack) that will take you through Paris to the Eiffel Tower. In addition, the Flyview includes a guide who will tell you in detail the places you fly over, as well as their history.

One of the best options to see another side of Paris and live all the adrenaline of the flight with the tranquility of the simulation.

Live this virtual reality adventure and visit from the air one of the most acclaimed architectural icons of Paris, Opera Garnier. Built by the French architect Charles Garnier and inaugurated in 1875, the Opera or Palais Garnier has become one of the most visited buildings in the French capital. Its majesty, both inside and out, and its dome painted by Marc Chagall, make it a work of art in itself.

With Flyview, you will have the opportunity to fly over the building and see every detail up close. Together with your guide, you will learn why the ornamentation on the façade and other secrets. Although, of course, if you want to walk inside and also access the museum, you can book tickets for the Opéra Garnier in Paris.

Located next to the Seine, on the Ile Saint Louis, the Notre Dame de Paris Cathedral is, next to Sacre Coeur, the most visited religious building in the city.

In April 2019, due to an accident, a large part of the mythical cathedral went up in flames. Since then, a major reconstruction is underway, limiting pedestrian access in some of its cloisters.

With this immersive virtual reality experience, you will be able to fly over the Parisian cathedral. An unparalleled adventure through one of the most moving places for locals and tourists from all over the world. And if you still want to visit the interior of the cathedral, be sure to book a tour of the Notre Dame Cathedral.

Another of the virtual tours that you can take during the Flyview experience in Paris is through some of the most important sites in France: you can fly over Mont Saint Michel, located in the Normandy region. An ideal destination to visit from the air, since it is located on a rocky island. Its small but picturesque village as well as its abbey located at the top, are totally worth it.

Another destination you will visit in this adventure is the Mont Blanc. The aerial views of this snow-capped colossus are not available on a traditional tour, so you can't miss the opportunity to see this colossus through virtual technology.

Here are some options to explore the City of Light in depth. Guided tours, boat trips on the Seine, museums and much more.

Take a tour of one of Paris' favorite neighborhoods: the Latin Quarter

If, after getting your feet back on the ground, you want to get a taste of the city's university and intellectual charm, you can't miss out on one of the best tours of Paris' Latin Quarter. Along with Saint Germain de Prés, the Latin Quarter or Quartier Latin was a favorite of thinkers and writers such as Simone de Beauvoir, Jean Paul Sartre or Boris Vian.

A tour of the Latin Quarter of Paris will make you discover all the charm of Paris, and also, thanks to the story of your specialized local guide, you will learn the stories of the revolts in the neighborhood during May '68.

The Seine River divides Paris in two, and its banks are home to some of the must-see highlights of any visit to the French capital. From the Orsay Museum, the Louvre, the Jardin de Plantes to Trocadero or the Eiffel Tower, the Seine is a preferential box. What better than touring it aboard a sightseeing cruise.
