About this tour
Explore Paris from an unconventional vantage point aboard a vintage Ural motorcycle sidecar during a 90-minute guided tour. You'll weave through backstreet neighbourhoods and past iconic landmarks while your driver shares local stories and historical context. The open-air ride captures the city's romance whether you're departing at sunset or arriving as evening lights flicker on. Two passengers share each sidecar—one riding alongside, one perched behind the pilot—with the option to swap positions halfway through.

What to expect
You'll arrive at your hotel where your guide collects you and one other passenger before firing up the vintage motorcycle. The sidecar provides an exposed, visceral way to navigate Paris—wind in your face, cobblestones rumbling beneath you—quite different from a standard bus or car tour. Expect narrow lanes, unexpected corners, and frequent stops to absorb heritage buildings and streetscapes while your guide unpacks their knowledge. The halfway swap ensures both riders get time in the sidecar's more sheltered seat. By the final stretch, you'll have covered considerable ground and gained an intimate feel for the city's texture.
