Four Things to Do Beyond Football

Standing 330 metres tall, the iconic structure offers breathtaking panoramic views across the French capital from its observation decks, allowing visitors to admire famous sights including the River Seine, Arc de Triomphe and Sacré-Cœur. Whether you choose to visit during the day or watch the city sparkle after sunset, the Eiffel Tower provides an unforgettable experience and remains one of the highlights of any trip to Paris. With beautiful gardens, cafés and river walks surrounding the monument, it's the perfect place to begin your Paris adventure.
THE LOUVRE MUSEUM
Home to some of the greatest artistic treasures ever created, the Louvre Museum is one of the most visited museums in the world. Visitors can admire masterpieces including Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa, the ancient Greek sculpture Venus de Milo and countless works spanning thousands of years of history. Even if you're not an art enthusiast, the museum's spectacular architecture, including its famous glass pyramid entrance, makes it a must-see attraction. Allow plenty of time to explore its vast galleries before enjoying lunch at one of the nearby cafés in the heart of historic Paris.
CRUISE THE SEINE
One of the most relaxing ways to discover Paris is on a Seine River cruise. As you glide through the centre of the city, you'll pass many of its most famous landmarks, including Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Musée d'Orsay, the Eiffel Tower and the elegant bridges that cross the river. Daytime cruises provide fantastic sightseeing opportunities, while evening sailings showcase the city beautifully illuminated after dark. It's an excellent way to appreciate Paris from a different perspective and offers countless opportunities for memorable photographs throughout your journey.
MONTMARTRE AND SACRE COEUR
La Rambla
La Rambla is Barcelona's most famous boulevard, stretching for approximately 1.2 kilometres from Plaça de Catalunya to the city's historic waterfront at Port Vell. Lined with trees, cafés, restaurants, shops and street performers, it is one of the city's liveliest and most popular areas, attracting visitors throughout the day and into the evening. Whether you're enjoying a coffee at an outdoor terrace, browsing souvenir stalls or simply taking in the bustling atmosphere, La Rambla offers a true taste of Barcelona's vibrant street life.
Along the boulevard you'll find several of Barcelona's most popular attractions, including the renowned Mercat de Sant Josep de la Boqueria (La Boqueria), one of Europe's finest food markets, where visitors can sample fresh produce, local delicacies and traditional Catalan cuisine. Nearby, you'll also discover the historic Gran Teatre del Liceu, one of Spain's leading opera houses, and easy access to the charming Gothic Quarter. At the southern end of La Rambla stands the Christopher Columbus Monument, overlooking the harbour and providing the perfect starting point for exploring Barcelona's waterfront and marina.
VISIT NOTRE DAME CATHEDRAL
Standing proudly on the Île de la Cité in the heart of Paris, Notre-Dame Cathedral is one of the world's most celebrated examples of Gothic architecture and an enduring symbol of the French capital. Construction began in 1163 and took almost two centuries to complete, resulting in a masterpiece renowned for its magnificent stained-glass rose windows, soaring towers and intricate stone carvings. Although the cathedral suffered extensive damage during the devastating fire of 2019, a remarkable international restoration project has ensured that this iconic landmark continues to inspire visitors from around the world. Whether admiring its breathtaking exterior, exploring its rich history or simply soaking up the atmosphere of the surrounding squares and riverside walks, a visit to Notre-Dame is an essential part of any trip to Paris and offers a fascinating glimpse into more than 850 years of French history and culture.
