Walking is the best--and cheapest--way to explore Paris. But if you've
got limited time or mobility, or if you'd like to go farther afield,
Viator's sightseeing tours and day trips are worth
considering. (Airport and railroad-station transfers are also available.)

Beauvais (just over an hour from Paris) is more than the site
