The journey, perfectly paced

Day 1 — Paris Arrival | Seine at Sunset

Touch down at CDG where your JE Escapes meet-and-greet leads you to a private transfer bound for your boutique hotel (Left Bank or Opéra district). As twilight falls, slip into Paris with an evening Seine cruise with dinner—watch the city glow beneath its iconic bridges (optional).

Day 2 — Paris Highlights Unlocked

A full-day private tour hits the essentials with ease: Eiffel Tower (summit, timed entry), Arc de Triomphe, and the Champs-Élysées, before a curated walk through the Louvre for the masterpieces. Pause for a classic café moment in Saint-Germain-des-Prés. Evening free—reserve a bistro or a Michelin table with our help.

Day 3 — Montmartre & Hidden Passages

Ride the funicular to Sacré-Cœur for sweeping views, then wander Place du Tertre and the cobbles of artists’ Montmartre. Continue into central Paris’ covered passages and secret courtyards—Belle Époque glass, indie bookshops, and artisan stalls. After dark, an artisanal cheese-pairing workshop in an affineur’s cellar (optional).

Day 4 — Versailles, Royal & Relaxed

With your private driver, head to Versailles for the Palace, the glittering Hall of Mirrors, and the formal gardens (musical fountains on select days). Unfold a picnic on the lawns or dine in the village (optional). Return to Paris for an evening at leisure—think jazz cellar, rooftop view, or riverfront stroll.

Day 5 — Paris to Bruges | Canals & Belfry

Set off by private car to Bruges (about 3 hrs). Check into a canal-side boutique gem, then join your guide for Markt Square, the Belfry, and hushed quays straight from a painting. Cozy up for a Belgian bistro dinner (optional).

Day 6 — Bruges Morning, Paris Finale

A slow morning for a canal boat ride, chocolate tasting, and lace ateliers. After lunch, return to Paris by private car. For your last night, choose a cabaret, a Left Bank jazz club, or fine dining—we’ll secure the reservation (optional).

Day 7 — Departure

Private transfer to Charles de Gaulle Airport at your preferred time. Ready to extend? Add Champagne, the Loire, or London by Eurostar—we’ll tailor the finale to you.
