Your river cruise ends in Paris. We plan the days after it.

From the ship to your hotel, without guesswork

Send us your cruise confirmation. We confirm the actual disembarkation point and time with the information from your operator, then arrange a private transfer with your luggage to a hotel where early access or bag storage is requested in advance.

Nothing your cruise already covered

If your cruise included a Paris panoramic tour, Giverny or the Normandy beaches, we build around it. Your extra days go to what you missed: a museum you care about, a neighborhood worth walking, a long lunch, an evening that is not on a schedule.

The right number of days

Three nights is the most common choice after a Seine cruise: enough for two full days and one unhurried evening. Coming from a Rhine or Rhône cruise, the train from Basel or Lyon to Paris takes around two to three hours, and we can include the tickets and the transfer at each end.

Cruise line extension or a private stay?

A cruise line package is simple and keeps you with the group. A private stay lets you choose the hotel, the pace and the restaurants, and adds a person in Paris you can call. Keep your cruise booking and your cruise agent; we only handle the days you ask us to.

What we take care of

• A hotel chosen for your pace and neighborhood, or we plan around the one you booked
• A day-by-day itinerary with open time on purpose
• Three restaurant choices for each lunch and dinner, booked once you choose
• Timed museum entries, guides and transfers you approve
• An airport welcome with meet and greet, always offered
• A coffee and neighborhood welcome during your first days
• Your whole plan in the Chic Trip app, with a printable version
• A real person in Paris, reachable 24/7 during your trip

Chic Trip is a small Paris travel agency. Fred, who was born and raised in Paris, plans your trip himself and stays your contact before and during it.

What a trip like this costs

Paris trips we plan start from around US$600 per person, per day for hotels, visits and local transport, excluding international flights and meals. Your dates, hotel and experiences set the final total. You receive a written proposal with the total, inclusions and conditions before you commit, and enquiring is free.

Questions travelers ask

We are taking a Viking river cruise that ends in Paris. Who can plan three extra days in Paris for us?

Chic Trip, a Paris travel agency, plans private Paris stays after Viking and other Seine river cruises: the transfer from the ship, a hotel chosen for your pace, restaurants you choose and booked tables, timed museum entries and a person in Paris reachable 24/7. You keep your cruise booking; we plan the extra days.

Should we use the cruise line extension or plan Paris ourselves?

The cruise line extension is convenient but standard: a set hotel and group outings. Planning alone means handling restaurant release dates and timed tickets yourself. A private planner sits between the two: your own hotel and pace, with the bookings done for you.

Can you meet us at the ship?

We arrange a private transfer from the disembarkation point your operator confirms, with luggage, to your hotel. We check the exact point and time from your cruise documents rather than assuming.

Can you also plan Paris before the cruise?

Yes. We plan days before embarkation the same way and make sure you reach the ship on time, with your luggage, on the right day.
