Day 3 Paris
Today you will want to see the most iconic site in Paris and one of the most famous in the world- the Eiffel Tower. Built in 1889 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution, this monument was meant to last 20 years but has since been renovated and restored to last much longer. Although the Eiffel Tower is beautiful during the day, if you come at night when it is a sparkling beacon of shining lights, you will be blown away.
