Seven days of Paris at its own pace

Your immersion into Paris begins before the city stirs. Step through a private entrance into the Musée du Louvre before opening hours, entering silent, cathedral-like halls where dawn light falls softly across Renaissance masterworks. Standing in the Salle des États virtually alone before Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, you experience the room's profound stillness without the presence of crowds. As twilight approaches, descend to the riverbank to board a private, hand-crafted mahogany electric boat. Gliding silently along the Seine past illuminated monuments, you enjoy artisanal charcuterie and fine wine while watching the golden hour light reflect across the water and historic stone bridges.

Begin your morning at the Musée de l'Orangerie, entering at the very first opening slot of the day. Accompanied by a private art historian, experience Monet’s monumental Water Lilies in natural morning light, absorbing the meditative beauty of the two oval rooms before general visitors arrive. In the evening, transition to the historic Marais district for a long, unhurried dinner at Parcelles. Nestled in a charming 1930s neighborhood bistro, you will sample seasonal market-fresh dishes paired thoughtfully with rare natural wines selected by the house sommelier.

Ascend the quiet winding paths of Montmartre in the morning to access Clos Montmartre, a hidden vineyard closed to the general public. Guided by a private lecturer, step behind the iron gates to stroll among vintage grapevines and Renoir’s former gardens, taking in views of Paris from this historic artistic enclave. As evening arrives, venture into the vibrant 11th arrondissement for dinner at Septime. Revered as the centerpiece of Paris's modern culinary movement, this eco-driven, 2-Star Michelin neo-bistro offers a multi-course seasonal menu celebrating sustainable artistry in a relaxed, local atmosphere.

Spend a refined afternoon tucked beneath the neoclassical arcades of Palais-Royal. At Maison Fabre, meet master glovers for a private fitting consultation where custom lambskin gloves are hand-measured and crafted using traditional century-old techniques. Just steps away, transition into the historic dining room of Le Grand Véfour. Surrounded by gilded Directoire mirrors and carved wooden paneling where Napoleon and Victor Hugo once gathered, savor classic French culinary creations prepared by Chef Bruno Doucet while taking in views of the serene Palais-Royal gardens.

Travel just outside the city center to the Château de Versailles for a private morning exploration. Step behind secret 80cm doors hidden within the Hall of Mirrors to access the King’s Private Apartments, entering the intimate bedchambers, dining rooms, and private libraries of Louis XV and Louis XVI alongside a private guide. Upon returning to Paris, take your seats in a VIP acoustic box at Jean Nouvel’s acclaimed Philharmonie de Paris. Relax with private lounge access before taking in a classical symphonic performance crafted for absolute acoustic clarity.

Dedicate your morning to wellness in historic Saint-Germain-des-Prés at Spa Akasha within Hôtel Lutetia. Rejuvenate inside a sunlit 700m² white marble sanctuary, enjoying hydrotherapy sessions, hammam access, and private pool time beneath soaring Art Deco architecture. In the evening, experience the legendary Palais Garnier in complete quiet after general public hours. Accompanied by an official guide, explore the grand marble staircase, the Foyer de la Danse backstage, and stand in solitude beneath Marc Chagall’s vibrant painted ceiling in the silent Grand Foyer.

Your final day in Paris reaches a crescendo of taste and craftsmanship. In the afternoon, enter the private laboratory of world-renowned pastry chef Cédric Grolet at Le Meurice. Under the direct guidance of master pastry chefs, learn the delicate art of sculpting signature trompe-l'œil fruit creations in an intimate, privatized kitchen studio. To conclude your journey, reserve a Seine-view table at Plénitude inside Cheval Blanc Paris. Chef Arnaud Donckele guides you through his 3-Star Michelin 'Absolues' menu—a poetic culinary voyage centered around broth and sauce alchemy, creating a memory of Paris that lingers long after departure.
