That is perhaps the best thing about my job – to find something new, to go beyond the obvious so that there is a chance for the country to simply seep into your bones!

Similarly when we talk about Paris and Nice – the six-day itinerary has been tested time and again. However, on top of the Eiffel tower, Louvre Museum and Illumination tours try something really exclusive.

1. 2CV City Tour:

Sitting in this small car you are sure to feel like a child pressing your nose to the window of a candy store as the changing vistas pass by. Find the hidden gems of Paris and while you sit comfortably and sip your Champagne. You will even get a chance to get your photos clicked professionally. You can choose from a variety of tours all of which have different ranges.

2. A behind the scenes tour of France Football Stadium:

Any sports fan will be ecstatic to get a glimpse of the France Football stadium up close. Begin your tour by visiting the stands which holds the emotions of its fans close. Close your eyes and imagine the excitement of the 80,000 spectators cheering on their teams at the biggest games, as if you were there. Learn all about the stadium’s history, its unique architecture and the stars who’ve appeared on its manicured pitch. But even for those who don’t like sports there is more to the stadium than just football for the largest sporting and cultural venue in France doesn’t just host high-level competitions; shows and other major events are also held here. Rolling Stones were the first group to perform at the stadium. The experience continues as you’re left to enjoy the Stade de France’s museum: archives, models, autographed guitars and jerseys… an array of items which are testament to the stadium’s legendary history.

3. The Cavalry of the French Republican Guard:

There is nothing more inspiring and breath-taking than witnessing a cavalry. This unusual guided tour in the heart of Paris takes you behind the scenes of the cavalry of the French Republican Guard. Enter the Celestins district and discover the training area of the cavalrymen. Constructed in 1895, the district houses the headquarters and the cavalry regiment of the French Republican Guard. Inside the Main Stable and the Major’s Stable your guide will explain the characteristics of the majestic horses. Stand in awe and simply take in the experience.

4. Take a ride on Formula 1 race track in Monte Carlo:

The Monaco Grand Prix is the one race of the year that every driver dreams of winning. We can’t ever dream of competing but what we can imagine is getting to drive on that track! Drive a Ferrari on the same track that has seen some of the greatest race car drivers compete on and let your imagination soar!

5. Visit Fragonard Perfume Museum:

Treat your senses as you take a guided tour of Fragonard Perfume Museum a little away from Nice. Learn perfume in all its aspects. The secrets of manufacture, the raw materials used, the trade of a perfume – this visit is also the discovery of a collection of precious bottles of all styles and eras. Your guide will assist you in discovering multiple fragrances and will open for you an intoxicating potency. You will come out of this visit enchanted and perfumed!

So this time plan a trip to France and make sure you do something new!
