Highlights
Spotlight on Paris

Eiffel Tower Dinner
Built in 1889 as part of the World's Fair by the architecture team of Gustave Eiffel, the Eiffel Tower is the symbol of Paris today. Located on the first level is 58 Tour Eiffel, a gourmet restaurant with stunning panoramic views of Paris. Since food is another big part of Parisian culture, the meal is several courses, beautifully displayed and accompanied with wine, coffee and tea.

Louvre Museum
Being one of the world’s largest museums and home to the most impressive collection of art in history, the Louvre is one of the city’s most popular tourist attractions. It sits along the banks of the Seine River in Paris and served as a fortress in 1190 and as a royal palace in the 16th century. It has grown over the years and today is a massive structure that brings delight to millions of visitors a year who enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime glance at some of the world’s most famous and treasured works.

Le Marais


Place des Vosges
Wander through the Place des Vosges, the oldest town square in the city, in the heart of the Le Marais neighborhood. Once the gathering place for Parisian high society, the Place is now the spot for locals and travelers alike to relax on the manicured lawns.

Parisian Food Tour
Follow a local foodie through the streets of Montogueil, indulging in specialties from family-owned stores and cozy cafes. From hot-off-the-griddle crepes to buttery pastries that melt in your mouth, you’ll get a true taste of French cuisine.

Notre Dame
The world-renown Notre Dame Cathedral is far and away the most famous Gothic cathedral from the Middle Ages, with its iconic design being one of the best examples of the French Gothic architectural style in the world. Massive restoration efforts are under way to restore the Cathedral to its full glory, but the outside is still a wonder to behold.

Versailles Palace & Gardens
Feel like royalty during a tour of Versailles' sprawling green gardens and palace halls with a local guide. This legendary palace is truly a work of art – from the prominent Hall of Mirrors to the opulent bedchamber of the queen, take in the palace’s most famous sights.

Montmartre
Visit the hip, bohemian neighborhood of Montmartre, where artistic roots blend with quirky modernity. During the Belle Époque period, Montmartre was a neighborhood filled with classical painters and cultural provocateurs, and you can still see the echoes of their influence in the neighborhood today.

Champs-Élysées
The name Champs-Élysées means “Elysian Fields,” which in Greek mythology was the final resting place for the souls of the heroic and virtuous. This heaven on earth is one of the most beautiful and luxurious places in the world, spanning 1.25 miles full of rich history and all the romance Paris has to offer. Enjoy being in the heart of one of the most beautiful cities in the world as you stroll down the street’s famous sidewalks lined with cafes, shops and theaters.

Arc de Triomphe
Standing at 164' tall and at the intersection of the Champs Elysee is the Arc de Triomphe. Built for the successful return of Napoleon, yet finished after his defeat, the monument stands at the star-shaped cross point in the heart of Paris along what is referred to as the Meridian Line cutting through the city. Today it is the featured icon and terminus point for Le Tour de France and the Bastille Day celebrations for France's independence.

Choice on Tour: Sacre Coeur & Free Time in Montmarte or Musee de Montmartre
While in Paris you will have the choice between two activities. First, you can choose to visit the awe-inspiring Sacré-Coeur Basilica, the second highest point of the city after the Eiffel Tower, and enjoy free time to explore the area. Or, you can choose to learn about the neighborhood’s famous artists and writers at the Musée de Montmartre, a historic 17th century house that gives you a glimpse into the artistic side of town.Sacre Coeur & Free Time in Montmarte - NEO Day 7Activity Level: 2Guests may have to queue in line to enter Sacre Coeur Basilica.Musee de Montmartre - NEO Day 7Activity Level: 2Short walk from nearby Sacre Coeur (where guests wil have ticket to take funicular up).

We don’t think of guided travel as a business. We think of it as a great honor and privilege to be able to share what’s so wonderful about the world with our guests.

We understand that life happens and sometimes plans change, so we don’t want you to book with us only to be socked with fees if you have to cancel your trip. That just adds insult to injury! That’s why we offer an industry leading travel protection plan that offers you a full refund, less the cost of the plan. Cancel for any reason right up to the day before your departure.

Sedan Service

Getting to and from the airport can be the most stressful and difficult part of any trip.

Social Responsibility

Social Responsibility: It's a way of life

It’s at the heart of everything we do and every decision we make. We believe that travel should be a force for good and by uniting with our employees, partners and travelers, we can make a positive impact in our local and global communities.

Our Mission

Social Responsibility at Collette means working together to take care of the places we live, work and travel. We focus on four key areas – Community, People, Travel and Planet – taking a holistic approach by striving to do good in every area of our business.

COMMUNITY

Our nonprofit, the Collette Foundation, supports worldwide communities in need through hunger and education initiatives. Each year, employees volunteer more than 4,500 hours of their time to efforts in their own communities and across the world.

TRAVEL

We strive to create an experience our guests not only enjoy, but also feel good about. We work to sustain and preserve communities, cultures, and traditions through tourism, and positively impact the places we come to know as travelers.

PEOPLE

We couldn’t deliver the amazing travel experiences that we do without our incredible team. We offer our employees a variety of tools to be happy, healthy, and successful including learning and growth opportunities.

PLANET

Our world is filled with awe-inspiring natural wonders. That’s why we are actively making responsible decisions to reduce our carbon footprint and care for our planet, the place we all call home.

Multigenerational Travel

Focus on family. We’ll handle the rest.

There are countless benefits to family travel. Experiencing new things together. Taking time to enjoy each other’s company without life’s typical distractions. Connecting with loved ones who don’t live near us.

No matter why you decide to travel together, or where you choose to go, spending quality time with family should be the only thing that matters. That’s why families book Collette tours – to let experts take care of all the details.

Why Book Your Multigenerational Family Trip with Collette?

Making Memories Together
Unique experiences are made richer with family by your side. And the journey lives on through memories retold. Do you remember that game drive with Grandma? We came so close to the elephants!

Don't Sweat the Small Stuff
Planning a trip is hard work. Organizing the Blarney Stone visit? Finding a ride to the river cruise in Costa Rica? That stuff takes away from your time to focus on each other. Let us handle the logistics.

Learning From Each Other
Traveling with family is the best game of trivia. From architectural features to history, the facts your family memers have tucked away may surprise you. (And your Tour Manager can fill in any gaps!)

Exploring Your Ancestry
Cultural heritage forms our family traditions and beliefs. Tracing your family's roots is powerful. There's no better way to discover these countries than with your family. Go together, with an expert by your side.
