Paris, the capital of fashion, is home to the most famous brands in the world (Chanel, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Hermes… to name a few). Together with your private driver guide, you'll find out about all the secrets of Paris's fashion history.
Meet your private guide at your central Paris hotel or near Opera Garnier in the center of town, and then hop into the passenger seat of your Citroen 2CV car.
After arriving on the French motoring scene in the 1940s, the attention-grabbing and economical Citroen 2V cars quickly became de reigeur. While their look has changed over the years, the original models – such as the one used on this tour – are held in deep-rooted affection in France. So, enjoy the attention from Parisian locals and visitors alike as you ride around in a true original: a soft-top vintage 2CV.
Your driver will regale you with the history of Parisian fashion and anecdotes about the fashion world, while you admire the sites and take as many photos as you can. If the weather is friendly, you can ask your driver to pull the roof down and enjoy an open-top tour.
You will drive through all the key fashion districts in Paris and past all the most famous brands, before ending up at the temple of contemporary fashion, the Galeries Lafayette Paris Haussmann department store. You'll even be invited for a sweet break including a soft drink and a pastry at the main store café (for purchases over 50 euros in store).
