Top Paris Tour in 2023

First time in Paris? Hop on the ride to visit the world-famous Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, and the Louvre. Make sure to not forget the Musée d’Orsay, Le Marais, and the Luxembourg Gardens. 

You won’t be able to do everything – museum visits, shopping, cemetery visits, neighborhood exploration, and opera attendance – so make your own timetable, group neighboring sites together, and experience Paris on your own terms. Alternatively, schedule a guided Paris tour 2022, to learn about the city’s hidden gems with the aid of a local.

Louvre Museum Ticket: Skip the Line

The Louvre in Paris, if someone had to choose, would undoubtedly be the most visited museum on the planet. The historic gallery, which opened in 1793, attracts over 8 million people each year who come to appreciate the more than 35,000 works of art inside.

The Musée du Louvre is housed in the Louvre Palace, whose 12th-century grandeur contrasts brilliantly with the glass pyramid that has become one of the city’s icons, which was completed in 1989.

Have you always wanted to view the Mona Lisa up near and personal? Discover Leonardo da Vinci’s most renowned painting, as well as the other treasures that occupy the world’s biggest art museum. This is a must-see attraction!

Free Walking Tour of Paris

Immerse yourself in “The City of Lights” by taking a guided tour of the French capital, which includes stops at the Louvre, the Seine, and Notre Dame.

Your experienced guide will teach you about the history of the monuments you’ll be seeing as well as interesting information about the city during your free Paris tour. From its beginnings as a medieval town to its transformation into the capital of Napoleon’s empire, from the French Revolution to the Belle Époque and Nazi occupation, this trip will bring the city and its history to life for an unforgettable experience.

Free Paris tours do not have a set charge; instead, each individual pays the guide whatever they think is fair, based on their degree of pleasure.

Montmartre Free Walking Tour

From terrace cafés to romping pubs and clubs, drunken can-can dancers to street artists and entertainers, Montmartre epitomizes everything Parisian. One of the most amazing Paris day trips, this tour takes you through narrow cobblestone lanes to see bourgeois-bohemian residences and learn what drew Van Gogh, Lautrec, Monet, Picasso, and Dali to this most libertine of Parisian neighborhoods.

The journey begins at the historic Moulin Rouge on the outskirts of Montmartre and then climbs the hill to view the Café des Deux Moulins (from the film Amélie), the House of Van Gogh, and Paris’ final windmill.

You’ll witness the famed Wall of Love and one of the city’s oldest surviving churches in Place des Abbesses. As you continue on, you’ll see Montmartre favorites like the Bateau Lavoir, Place Dalida, a famous local cabaret, and the area’s last vineyard, as well as the artistic Place du Tertre.

Seine River Cruise

Drifting along the Seine River in a panoramic river boat during the day or at night is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that provides unrivalled views of Paris. The cruise also features informative English commentary.

The riverboat leaves from the Eiffel Tower dock, which is located at the base of this magnificent structure. The one-hour boat will go down the Seine River to the Île Saint-Louis before returning to the same dock and disembarking.

You’ll view some of the city’s most magnificent monuments on this unique excursion, including Les Invalides, the French Parliament, the Musée d’Orsay, Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Louvre Museum, and the Grand Palais, among many more.

You’ll be given an English audio tour with fascinating insights about the City of Light, its monuments, and architecture during the journey.

  • Adults – €14.88

Day Trip to Bruges

Bruges, sometimes known as the “Venice of the North,” is Belgium’s most visited city and one of Europe’s most interesting medieval capitals. Take a walking tour of the city center and a lovely canal ride to gain a fresh view of Bruges.

At 7:15 a.m., board an air-conditioned coach at Place des Vins de France in Paris and unwind as you travel to Belgium. You’ll arrive in Bruges at about 11:15 a.m. after a brief stop between Paris and Northern Belgium.

An excellent collection of wall murals can be seen inside the monument, which was influenced by the famous Pantheon of Agrippa in Rome. The Pantheon’s crypt, which is naturally one of the monument’s primary attractions, is one of the most unusual portions of the structure.

Jordi Meeus (C) sprints to the finish line to win the 21st and final stage.

It’s farewell from me… for today. I’ll be back on the Tour de France Femmes live blog tomorrow. Thank you for all your messages, questions and funny anecdotes. They really do bring a smile to my face and it’s been a pleasure covering stages of the Tour de France for you. My colleagues will update with a race report shortly…I’m off to try and recreate this Pogacar gem.

🇫🇷 Lorsque l’actuel deuxième coureur au classement général du Tour de France Tadej Pogacar se rend tranquillement chercher sa baguette en vélo dans les rues de Clermont-Ferrand ! 🥖 🎥 tadejpogacar pic.twitter.com/B1QjiFVWUY — radio sisko fm (@radiosiskofm) July 15, 2023

On the podium:

Jonas Vingegaard celebrating winning the yellow jersey at the Tour de France for the second year in a row.

Earlier I mentioned that there were a few riders saying farewell to the Tour today, having previously announced their retirement from road racing. As well as Sagan and Pinot, Tony Gallopin and Dries Devenyns have raced their final Tour stage today. Gary has tweeted to share his gratitude for Pinot:

Au revoir Thibault Pinot. You rode with your heart on your sleeve not your eye on the power meter, and carried a torch for the emotional power of panache when we thought it had gone forever, lost in a miasma of marginal gains. Chapeau! @AmySedghi — Gary Naylor (@garynaylor999) July 23, 2023

Jonas Vingegaard has won the 110th edition of the Tour de France . It’s the Dane’s second year in a row winning the yellow jersey. Here’s what he had to say after today’s stage:

What was the feeling when you crossed the line? It’s a feeling of being proud. I’m happy of course – we’re winning it for the second time and it’s amazing. Today with all the spectators, all the Danish people here, it was really amazing and I have to say thank you, not only to my team and family, but to all the of Denmark. They support me as well and I’m really grateful for this.”

Can you describe the journey from Bilbao? “It’s been a long journey but it’s also went by so fast. We race everyday…it’s been a super hard race and a super good fight between me and Tadej [Pogacar]. I really enjoyed it all the way.”

What can we expect from you? “Of course, I hope to come back next year to see if I can take the third win. At least try it. I think that would be the plan.”

What would you want your daughter to think of you when she’s older? “Just that I was a good father…that I was there for her when she needed me.”

Today’s stage winner Meeus speaks: “I knew in the previous sprints that I [had] more than the results I’ve shown so far. [Today] everything went perfect and I was super happy to finish it off.”

“I felt good all day: the beginning was easy, obviously, but from the moment we went full gas my legs felt incredibly good. Then Marco Haller did a perfect job of positioning [me]. It’s my first tour. It was a super nice experience already and to take the win today is an indescribable feeling.”

Top five on stage 21

1. Jordi Meeus (Bora Hansgrohe) 2. Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin Deceuninck) 3. Dylan Groenewegen (Team Jayco Alula) 4. Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) 5. Cees Bol (Astana Qazaqstan Team)

Sagan sums up how everyone in the peloton must be feeling: “I’m tired,” he tells the Eurosport reporter. He doesn’t have much more to add.

An exciting finish… It was quite difficult to see who had taken that as there were a mix of green jerseys crossing the line together, but an overjoyed Meeus has clinched it. That was an exciting sprint to watch: Pogacar lead the group out with 1km to give a final flourish, Philipsen look well placed yet didn’t win and Meeus crossed the line to take the victory.

Jordi Meeus pips Jasper Philipsen on the line to win stage 21

Jordi Meeus of Bora-Hansgrohe pips Jasper Philipsen on the line. Philipsen can’t believe it and is shaking his head. That was quite unexpected…

Jordi Meeus of Team BORA-Hansgrohe wins the race.

2km to go: The sprint trains are forming. Lidl-Trek, Alpecin-Deceuninck, Uno-X and Jayco Alula are all up there. The yellow jersey have dropped back to stay out of danger and let get on with it.

5km to go: A few riders are still trying to push off the front, including Omar Fraile and Victor Campenaerts but it’s only going to end one way. I think we’re sure to see a bunch sprint and Jasper Philipsen would surely love to take this.

8km to go: Well, Sean Kelly was right. The breakaway has been caught and the riders are all back together. Magnus Cort briefly tries to get away but he’s reeled back in. We’re coming round to the final bell…

11km to go: Stefan Küng has had a mechanical. The peloton are closing in on Frison, Clarke and Oliveira but they seem to be letting them go again. Carlton Kirby on Eurosport is saying that there are some spots of localised drizzle and there is a corner that if it gets wet, has him worried.

13km to go: Hindley has managed to get back on to the peloton. The lap board is stating two laps to go! Next time round the riders will get the bell. It’s exciting.

16km to go: Seventh placed in the GC, Jai Hindley has had a bike change as his chain dropped. Frison, Clarke and Oliveira have 17sec on the group and are riding at around 55kmph.

20km to go: Sean Kelly isn’t sure that this three-man break is going to stick. While we wait to see if he’s right, I thought I’d share an email that’s landed in my inbox. Margaret asks: “Those energy bars that they all eat…are they wrapped differently to the bars we buy in the stores? Because I certainly need two hands (and occasionally a pair of scissors) to get into them. I wouldn’t ever contemplate trying to open one on a bicycle going at the speeds they reach.” I haven’t tried one of the pro-teams’ bars so can’t say but my soigneur (aka boyfriend) suspects that they might use a thinner wrapper that is easier to tear (although this has not been independently verified).

22km to go: It was looking like the trio were going to be swallowed up but the gap has gone back out to about 17 sec. The sprinters’ teams are probably happy to have a break of only three riders as they will be able to bring them back in later.

28km to go: It’s a slim lead of 8sec for the trio. Pogacar doesn’t let up and wants to join in the fun.

Pogacar really wants a piece of the action on the Champs-Élysées.

31km to go: The attackers have been reeled in, but hang on a moment, we have another attack. This time it’s Simon Clarke, followed by Frederik Frison and Nelson Oliveira.

33km to go: Michal Kwiatkowski, Alberto Bettiol, Nils Politt, Alex Edmondson, Harold Tejada, Yves Lampaert and Skjelmose have joined Pogacar and Van Hooydonck in the breakaway group. They have a very slender lead of 5sec.

Tadej Pogacar wins the intermediate sprint

37km to go: With the Tour de France 2023 coming to a close, many fans have been reflecting on their favourite moments. Michael has emailed in from Calgary in Canada to share his highlight: “As a Canadian, I have to be happy with the stage win this year by Michael Woods. It was a fantastic performance.” He’s also wondering about the team standings and asks “does anybody care at all about the team standings? The Tour diligently publishes them, but do they matter even slightly? (I wish they did - just like I wish there would be a team time trial every year.)"

41km to go: Six laps to go and Pogacar and Van Hooydonck are off the front with a very modest 10sec. Another group are splitting off the chasing group and another…the peloton is fracturing.

43km to go: I stand corrected. The coverage is showing that the roads have had a bit of rain on them but hopefully, not enough for it to be an issue. Van Hooydonck has decided to take turns and as a result, him and Pogacar have got the gap up to 15sec.

47km to go: Pogacar has attacked for a bit of fun. The crowd are loving it. The man certainly can entertain. Nathan Van Hooydonck of Jumbo-Visma is stuck on his wheel and refusing to do a turn.

53km to go: Earlier on the commentary, there was quite a bit of chat about whether the weather would hold or if the riders would face a wet sprint. Not a fun thought over those cobbles. So far, the weather looks to have behaved and the roads seem dry. A few riders have tried attacking already but had their efforts quickly shut down.

55km to go: The riders are on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées and have crossed the finish line for the first time. They will have eight laps before we have a final stage winner. Let the racing proper begin…

57km to go: Make sure to wave David! The riders are putting on a show with what looks like a beautifully synchronised dance through the Louvre museum.

60km to go: The peloton are passing by the Jardin du Luxembourg currently and it’s about 5km until they hit the Champs Élysées. The pace has upped slightly towards 31kmph.

63km to go: Hello to David, who has emailed in from nearby to the Louvre. He’s asking what time the peloton will be heading past. I’m not 100% sure but would guess very soon as they’re gathering pace.

66km to go: So far, the peloton have ridden past the Palace of Versailles and crested the only categorised climb today, at the pavé des Gardes. Aptly, Ciccone is the first to get over it in all his polka-dots, after his teammates, Mads Pedersen and Mattias Skjelmose jokingly lead him out. The riders are just coming in to Paris now and the Eiffel Tower is within sight.

73km to go: In answer to Justin’s question about who got closest to finishing the Tour without finishing, there have been a few emails. One mentions the German rider Tony Martin, who abandoned on the Champs Élysées during the 2016 Tour de France due to unexplained knee pain. To give some context to that, Martin told Cycling Weekly that he wanted to go home, find out what was going on with his knee and prepare for the Olympic time trial in Rio.

A couple of readers (hi Simon, hi David) have emailed in to mention Djamolidine Abdoujaparov. A quick search has brought up his name in this Guardian piece about the most memorable finishes on the Champs-Élysées:

“In 1991, elbows-out sprinter Djamolodine Abdoujaparov wore green into the final stage (despite controversy after he had forced Johan Musseeuw into the barriers on an earlier stage ) but crashed on the final sprint – yet clung on to the jersey when the team got him over the line. But that finish pales into insignificance next to the 1989 finish, when Greg LeMond overcame his deficit to Laurent Fignon to time trial his way to victory in 1989 .”

85km to go: There are a number of riders sealing their final Tour appearance today, including Thibaut Pinot (Groupama–FDJ) and Peter Sagan (TotalEnergies).

92km to go: An email from Justin in Spain has come in and it is asking a question that I have also pondered (but don’t know the answer to).

He asks: “Perhaps a tasteless question but yesterday I found myself wondering who has got closest to finishing Le Tour without actually getting there. Do you or any readers know who holds that unhappy distinction? (I do not include riders who have gone down in tbe (sic) final stretch but been given finishing times nonetheless.)“ If anyone knows, then please share…

93km to go: The average pace has dropped to under 26kmph. That’s the kind of pace club riders can do and I could possibly…at a push. Adam Blythe has been given a glass of Champagne by one of the team in the Jumbo-Visma car. I’m quite jealous…

96km to go: Pogacar and Vingegaard really do deliver when it comes to interesting Tour de France stats, but here is one I’ve selected from the official Tour website that might be good for a pub quiz…

“For the third consecutive year, the first two on the final podium are the same (Pogacar-Vingegaard in 2021, the other way around in 2022 and 2023): it had never happened previously.”

100km to go: As mentioned previously, I am enjoying the slower pace and light-hearted jokes from the peloton today. I’m fresh from covering the first stage of the Tour de France Femmes , so that is why.

Before anything too serious happens on this stage, I’d like to share a personal highlight from this year’s Tour: Pogacar and his pronunciation of French pastries.

🥐 Tadej Pogacar with the perfect pronunciation of "croissant" 😂 @TamauPogi | @TeamEmiratesUAE | #TDF2023 pic.twitter.com/zfplNBjPTR — Eurosport (@eurosport) July 8, 2023

103km to go: Some of the riders are casually chatting, while others are putting their arms on each others shoulders for a nice team pic. On Eurosport, Vingegaard has been speaking about his win and the news that he’ll be racing next at the La Vuelta a España:

“It’s super nice to win it for the second time…I’m more confident and more relaxed in this situation now and I think that’s the biggest difference for me. I really enjoyed the rivalry with Tadej [Pogacar]. It’s been an amazing fight from Bilbao to here today. It’s good for cycling, it’s good for us…but I’m glad I won.” Jumbo-Visma confirmed today that the Dane will be racing at La Vuelta and Vingegaard says it has been the plan all along but they were waiting to release the news.

109km to go: If ever there was any doubt that Giulio Ciccone was reveling in wearing the polka-dot jersey, then take a look at the man today. He’s even got a polka-dot bike…

112km to go: As is the tradition, the peloton are starting at a slow pace to soak up and enjoy atmosphere. They are celebrating their achievements over the last three weeks and having a nice time. Unfortunately, Victor Lafay (Cofidisis) not among them as he has not started today. I’m sure he’ll be happy though with that win on stage two – a big moment for Cofidisis.

The racing on stage 21 has begun...with a touch of fun to start

113km to go: Victor Campenaerts (Lotto-Dstny) had a cheeky attack off the front but he soon slows up and winks at the camera. He was just having a bit off fun as the super combative rider of the Tour. I’m looking forward to some more light-hearted fun during this stage. Bring it on.

Who’s wearing what jersey?

Yellow: Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) 79hr 16min 38sec

Green: Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) 377pts

Polka-dot: Giulio Ciccone (Lidl-Trek) 105pts

White: Tadej Pogacar (UAE Emirates)

Left to right: Jasper Philipsen (green), Tadej Pogacar (white), Jonas Vingegaard (yellow), Thibaut Pinot (most combative rider on stage 20) and Giulio Ciccone (polka-dot).

The top five on General Classification

Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) 79hr 16min 38sec

Tadej Pogacar (UAE Emirates) +7min 29sec

Adam Yates (UAE Emirates) +10min 56sec

Simon Yates (Jayco-Ulula) +12min 23sec

Carlos Rodriguez (Ineos Grenadiers) +13min 17sec

Pello Bilbao, Jai Hindley, Felix Gall, David Gaudu and Guillaume Martin make up the top 10.

Jonas Vingegaard to win Tour de France again as Pogacar takes stage 20

In case you missed yesterday’s stage, here is the stage 20 report to get you up to speed: Jonas Vingegaard in effect sealed back-to-back wins in the Tour de France after defending his overall lead in the final mountain stage of the three-week race. With only Sunday’s processional stage to central Paris to come, the Dane will, barring accidents, wear the final yellow jersey on the Champs-Élysées.

The stage 21 roll-out is under way

Smiling faces across the front of the peloton as the riders roll out for their final stage of the 2023 Tour de France . I can imagine they are all happy to have made it to Paris after a fast, hectic and tiring three weeks.

Stage 8: Jorgenson takes overall victory as Evenepoel wins final stage / As it happened

Matteo Jorgenson (Visma-Lease a Bike) won the overall Paris-Nice victory and claimed the biggest victory of his career. Working with Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quick Step) in a break along with Aleksandr Vlasov (Bora-Hansgrohe), they distanced overnight leader Bradon McNulty (UAE Team Emirates) in the rain-soaked final stage.

Evenepoel won stage 8 beating Jorgenson in a two-rider sprint, and took second overall. Fifth on the stage, McNulty rounded out the final GC podium.

Stage 7: Aleksandr Vlasov wins stage 7 as Brandon McNulty fights to remain in yellow / As it happened

Aleksandr Vlasov (Bora-Hansgrohe) soloed to victory atop the La Madone d'Utelle summit finish after countering an attack by Remco Evenepoel  (Soudal-QuickStep) and striking out with 4km to go. Evenepoel took second from a small chase group ahead of Primož Roglič (Bora-Hansgrohe), Matteo Jorgenson (Visma-Lease a Bike), Mattias Skjelmose (Lidl-Trek) and Santiago Buitrago (Bahrain Victorious). 

Brandon McNulty (UAE Team Emirates) struggled but managed to hold onto the yellow jersey with a slim 4-second lead on Jorgenson.

Stage 6: Mattias Skjelmose takes stage 6 victory as McNulty returns to race lead / As it happened  

Mattias Skjelmose (Lidl-Trek) outsprinted his two breakaway companions to win stage 6 and claimed his first victory of the year and his first at Paris-Nice. Runner-up on the stage Brandon McNulty (UAE Team Emirates) retook the yellow leader's jersey with more than a minute over pre-race favourite  Remco Evenepoel  (Soudal-Quickstep). Third on the stage, Matteo Jorgenson (Visma-Lease a Bike), who instigated the attack,  moved into second overall at 23 seconds.

Stage 5: Olav Kooij scores second sprint victory of the week / As it happened

Olav Kooij  (Visma-Lease A Bike) won his second sprint stage at Paris-Nice, this time sprinting to victory on stage 5 into Sisteron. Kooij outpaced Mads Pedersen (Lidl - Trek) and Pascal Ackermann (Israel-Premier Tech).

Luke Plapp (Jayco AlUla) maintained his overall race lead and heads into the sixth stage with a 13-second advantage on Santiago Buitrago (Bahrain-Victorious) and 27 seconds on Brandon McNulty (UAE Team Emirates).

Stage 4: Santiago Buitrago pushes ahead of Luke Plapp to win on Mont Brouilly / As it happened

Santiago Buitrago (Bahrain Victorious) soloed to victory on stage 4 atop Mont Brouilly. Luke Plapp (Jayco-AlUla) held on for second place to move into the yellow leader's jersey. Mattias Skjelmose (Lidl-Trek) finished third on the day.

Plapp now leads the overall by 13 seconds ahead of Buitrago, while overnight leader Brandon McNulty (UAE Team Emirates) slipped to third place overall at 27 seconds back. 

The racing continues on stage 5 for a 193.5km race from Saint-Sauveur-de-Montagut to Sisteron.

Stage 3: UAE Team Emirates win team time trial / As it happened

UAE Team Emirates struck the first GC blow of the 2024 Paris-Nice, placing four of their GC hopefuls – Brandon McNulty, Finn Fisher-Black, João Almeida, and Jay Vine – at the top of the standings after avoiding the late rainfall to win stage 3.

The team beat EF Education-EasyPost and Jayco-AlUla into second and third places at 15 and 22 seconds respectively in Auxerre.

Meanwhile, top race favourites Remco Evenepoel and Primož Roglič were among the teams to suffer in the rain, putting in strong rides at the mid-stage checkpoint but losing time late on to fall to fourth at 22 seconds and 11th at 54 seconds on the day.

Stage 2: Arvid de Kleijn wins stage 2 bunch sprint / As it happened

At the end of a supremely dull stage in which the peloton all but slow-pedalled for much of the day, Arvid de Kleijn (Tudor Pro Cycling) claimed his first-ever WorldTour victory, simultaneously netting his team's first triumph in cycling's top league. With no wind to spark much-feared echelons, the bulk of the stage passed off with virtually no real race action barring brief fights for the bonus seconds, with the main interest point coming down to the bunch sprint in Montargis.

Third on stage one, New Zealand sprinter Laurence Pithie (Groupama-FDJ) claimed second on the stage ahead of Dylan Groenwegen (Jayco AIUIa), moving into the overall lead thanks to the extra bonus seconds gained.

Stage 1: Olav Kooij sprints ahead of Mads Pedersen to win opener / As it happened

Olav Kooij (Visma-Lease a Bike) won the opening stage of 2024 Paris-Nice with a late pass of Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) in Les Mureaux. Kooij came off Pedersen’s back wheel in the closing 100 metres and won by half a wheel. Laurence Pithie (Groupama-FDJ) ran out of real estate and settled for third. 

With the victory, Kooij will wear the first leader's jersey of the eight-day race. It was the Dane's third win of the season, following his successes at the UAE Tour and Clásica de Almería. 

The opening day around Les Mureaux saw a breakaway of three riders form near the start of the 158km journey - Stefan Bissegger and Jonas Rutsch of EF Education-EasyPost with Mathieu Burgaudeau (TotalEnergies). On the climb of Côte de Bazemont with under 40km to race, it was all back together for the final bunch sprint.

Paris-Nice information

Paris-Nice kicks off the European WorldTour stage races, giving the Tour de France contenders their first glimpse of the competition this year.

The 'race to the sun' is one of the foundations of professional cycling. First organised in 1933, the race features some of the greats among its past winners including Eddy Merckx, Miguel Indurain, Jacques Anquetil and Sean Kelly.

As is tradition, the race starts in the North of France near Paris off with a stage in Yvelines that features a couple short climbs, a flatter second stage and a team time trial before the race heads into the mountains and down to the sunnier shores in Nice.

The event will be without defending champion Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) who opted to compete in the Volta a Catalunya and runner-up Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) who will race Tirreno-Adriatico. However, Remco Evenepoel will be leading the Soudal-Quickstep squad in Paris-Nice and may face Primož Roglič (Bora-Hansgrohe).

Paris-Nice route

The 2024 Paris-Nice route serves up some expected challenges as well as some new ones in the 1,218km of racing. For full details, read the 2024 Paris-Nice route .

2024 Paris-Nice Contenders

Paris-Nice is one of the important pathways to the Tour de France . This year, the eight-day race will host Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-QuickStep) and Primož Roglič (Bora-Hansgrohe) as the two headliners who are also looking ahead to the French Grand Tour in July.

Evenepoel started his season at the Figueira Champions Classic and Volta ao Algarve,  and won both events, signifying an an-form lead-in to Paris-Nice. Roglič, on the other hand, has not started a race yet this season, and so his form is somewhat unknown. However, the 2022 winner is always a contender for the overall victory.

Runner-up last year, David Gaudu (Groupama-FDJ), will be looking for that top step on the podium, and without 2023 winner Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) on the start line, he has one less rider to worry about.

UAE Team Emirates are not without an overall contender as João Almeida lines up with ambitions to win the overall. He finished second at Tirreno-Adriatico at this time last year but has decided to make his start to the season at Paris-Nice instead.

Egan Bernal (Ineos Grenadiers) joins the team at Paris-NIce having just finished fifth overall at his home race Tour Colombia and third at O Gran Camiño. He is still working his way back from a life- and career-threatening crash in early 2022, and getting stronger with each race.

Ion Izagirre (Cofidis) finished third overall in the 2021 edition and is one to watch this year as well. 

Also look to Pello Bilbao (Bahrain-Victorious), who was recently 3rd overall at the UAE Tour and sixth at Valenciana, along with his teammate Santiago Buitrago will play a second card for the team.

Other riders to watch are Jakob Fuglsang (Israel - Premier Tech), Alexey Lutsenko (Astana Qazaqstan), Rigoberto Urán (EF Education - EasyPost), and Luke Plapp (Jayco AlUla)

Eiffel Tower Tickets with Exclusive Summit Access

Enhance your eiffel tower experience accessing the elevator and marvel at panoramic views of paris.

Eager to see Paris’ enchanting skyline from above? That's why we have designed an Eiffel Tower tour to whisk you up to the summit platform for a breathtaking view of Paris' landmarks. Through our partnership with the Eiffel Tower, we have privileged access to the tower's second floor via elevator, granting you entry to the summit platform as well.

Eiffel Tower Tickets with Exclusive Summit Access

  • Eiffel Tower tickets
  • Meet your tour host
  • Look through the glass floors
  • Picture-perfect moment
  • Explore all floors up to the summit
  • Take your time to admire Paris views

By securing your ticket in advance, you guarantee yourself a coveted spot to admire Pairs from an exclusive viewpoint. After meeting your friendly host at the designated meeting spot near the entrance, you’ll pass through security together.

Ask your knowledgeable host any questions, then set off to explore the Eiffel Tower at your own leisure. Skip the endless stairs and take the elevator up to the second floor. From there, continue up to the summit platform and admire the magnificent panorama of the city below for as long as you desire.

Eiffel Tower Elevator Ticket with Summit Access  

Your 2-hour Eiffel Tower tour includes:

Guidance through Eiffel Tower security

Elevator ticket to the second floor

Host to lead you through security

Summit access with regular tickets

Admire Arc de Triomphe, Champs Elysées, Notre Dame, and more from above

Time to visit the museum, shops, and restaurants located within the Eiffel Tower

Meet Tour Host Near the Eiffel Tower

After meeting your tour escort at the designated meeting spot and receiving your Eiffel Tower ticket, you’ll walk together to the entrance. Pass through security stress-free, and head to the elevator to begin your journey up the Eiffel Tower. Before stepping inside and being left to explore the Eiffel Tower independently, your host will share some interesting facts and gladly answer any questions.

Eiffel Tower Second Floor

A quick elevator ride brings you to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, where you’ll be treated to the first of many breathtaking views. Stroll along the spacious observation deck and watch the panorama of Paris unfold before you, and see if you can spot the Arc de Triomphe, Notre-Dame Cathedral, and the Louvre below.

Don’t forget to visit the exhibits detailing the tower's history and engineering marvels–and if you’re hungry, stop by one of the various snack bars to treat yourself to a drink or nibble with a view. While you could stay here all day, the next part of your Eiffel Tower experience promises to be even more magnificent.

Eiffel Tower Summit Platform

With your summit ticket ready, hop in line and catch the elevator to the top of the Eiffel Tower. Immediately upon stepping outside, you’ll discover just how far Paris stretches out around you. Feel free to linger up here as long as you’d like, and if you're in the mood to celebrate, opt for a drink at the perfectly-placed champagne bar lingering 906 feet above the city.

After you've soaked up the stunning scenery, make your way to the Eiffel Tower's first floor, where you'll discover a small museum about the tower and a glass floor perched 187 feet above the ground. Once you're done, head down to the ground floor and carry on with your exciting Parisian journey!

Taylor Swift opens the Eras tour in Paris

Over a year into Taylor Swift’s Eras tour , she has found ways to keep the show fresh and new for those who have been waiting since she opened in Phoenix, Arizona in March 2023 to see her. Since the tour began in the United States last year, Swift has released two rerecorded albums —  Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)  and  1989 (Taylor’s Version)  in addition to a brand-new double album,  The Tortured Poets Department.

Taylor Swift: Which Eras Tour Songs Didn’t Make Concert Film & Which Surprise Songs Got In

Every show on the Eras Tour involves an acoustic set where Swift performs at least two songs custom to that night’s show. At first, she wouldn’t allow herself repeats unless she messed up the lyrics to a song, but now, she has done away with that rule and gotten more creative by combining songs in mashups and playing up to four in a segment. The first song or three take place on guitar, and then she shifts to piano for the second half before diving beneath the stage to resume the setlist – which has since contracted and expanded to include a  Tortured Poets Department  era and set .

Below you’ll find Taylor Swift’s surprise songs that she has played most recently in Europe as well as a record of all those she has played on the entire tour so far.

PARIS (AP) — The reconstruction of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris is going fast enough to allow its reopening to visitors and faithful at the end of 2024, less than six years after a fire ravaged its roof, French officials said Monday.

The cathedral’s iconic spire, which collapsed in the blaze , will gradually start reappearing above the monument this year in a powerful signal of its revival, the army general in charge of the colossal project, Gen. Jean-Louis Georgelin, said.

“The return of the spire in Paris’ sky will in my opinion be the symbol that we are winning the battle of Notre Dame,” he told the Associated Press.

The reconstruction itself started last year, after more than two years of work to make the monument stable and secure enough for artisans to start rebuilding it.

Authorities have made the choice to rebuild the 12th century monument, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, the way it was before. That includes recreating the 93-meter-high (315 ft) spire added in the 19th century by architect Eugene Viollet-le-Duc.

Meanwhile, an exhibition called “Notre-Dame de Paris: at the heart of the construction site” is to open to visitors on Tuesday in an underground facility in front of the cathedral. Accessible for free, it highlights ongoing operations on the site and the expertise and skills of workers. It also features some remains from the fire and works of art from the cathedral.

Gen. Georgelin said the cathedral will reopen in December 2024, in line with the goal set by President Emmanuel Macron just after the fire — yet it will be too late for the Paris Olympic Games scheduled in summer next year.

“My job is to be ready to open this cathedral in 2024. And we will do it,” Gen. Georgelin said. “We are fighting every day for that and we are on a good path.”

This “means that the archbishop of the capital will be in a capacity again to celebrate the Catholic liturgy in his cathedral” and the monument will also “be open for tourists to visit,” he said.

Culture Minister Rima Abdul-Malak told the AP that this doesn’t mean all the renovation will be finished then. “There will still be some renovation work going on in 2025,” she stressed.

Meanwhile, the new exhibition near the cathedral will allow visitors, including those coming for the Olympics, “to live what could be this experience of visiting Notre-Dame in a brand new way,” she said. In addition to the free visit, a virtual reality show will allow paying visitors to dive into the history of the cathedral. “That will help also tourism in Paris,” she added.

Everyday in the capital and across the country, about 1,000 people work to rebuild Notre Dame, Gen. Georgelin said.

“The biggest challenge is to comply precisely every day to the planning we have done,” he stressed. “We have a lot of different works to achieve: the framework, the painting, the stones, the vault, the organ, the stained glass and so on.”

Philippe Jost, managing director of the government agency overseeing the reconstruction, noted that the result “will be faithful to the original architecture” both because “we are sticking to the vanished shapes of the cathedral” and because ”we are also sticking to the materials and construction methods” of medieval times.

“We don’t do concrete vaults that look like stone, we do stone vaults that we rebuild as they were built in the Middle Ages,” Jost said, adding that the roof framework will also be made from oak like it initially was.

AP journalist Alexander Turnbull contributed to the story.
