Description
If France had to be boiled down to a few clichés, the 2CV would surely be among them, right along with the baguette and the Eiffel Tower. So what could be more typically Parisian than to explore the capital’s secrets day and night aboard this mythic vehicle? Now, with 4 Roues Sous 1 Parapluie, (meaning 4 Wheels Under 1 Umbrella – the original brief for Citroen’s famous 2CV!) , you can hire a 2CV driver, complete with a cap and a stripy Breton top, who will drive you through Paris and stop wherever you wish: perfect for a romantic escape or with your friends!
Eleven ways to see Paris aboard your 2CV
Settle comfortably in the back, then the motor will start to purr and your car will set off, roof down, across the cobbled streets. From the front seat, your passionate and fascinating guide will regale you with quirky anecdotes as, hair flying in the breeze, you admire eternal Paris and its sumptuous monuments streaming past: the Champs-Elysées, the Arc de Triomphe, Invalides, Notre-Dame, the Louvre Museum, Garnier Opera House plus hidden passageways and soaring flights of stairs in bohemian Montmartre. Curious, your tour will take you to the hidden corners of Paris, which can be discovered like a history book, and passionate, you will be charmed by the most romantic spots in the capital.
And because the 2CV has not rested on its laurels for all these years, here it is now in an electric version. "Marguerite" is the first electric 2CV, approved by the Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable Development and Energy. On board and always in the company of your private driver, discover the most beautiful monuments of Paris in a "green" version for 1h30.
In all, eleven unusual tours are offered throughout Paris, intimate and authentic rides to discover the most beautiful city in the world differently!
The meeting point for your guided tour is in front of the Petit Palais avenue Winston Churchill, 75008 Paris. And if you are staying in a hotel or flat in Paris intramuros (arrondissements 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 17 and 18), the tailor-made pick-up is free!
