Visit the classic sights of Paris

The classic sights of Paris: the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, Sacré Coeur and Notre Dame are, justifiably, the main areas of focus for most school trips to Paris. While the more recent ones: the Pompidou Centre and the glass pyramid in front of the Louvre also appear on many groups’ excursion wish lists. Groups wishing to see these sights on a school trip to Paris and practise their French at the same time will be hard-pushed to find a better opportunity to do so than our language course in Paris.
