The Retro Tour of
the Gentlemen Siders

Your Retro Tour adventure will involve a motorcycle and sidecar expertly driven by one of the three Gentlemen Siders. They will take you on your own or as a couple - one on the bike’s pillion, one in the sidecar - for a quirky, unusual, exhilarating and utterly fascinating trip around the sights of the capital. There’s a range of different tours to choose from according to your interests and preferences, but you can also design your own personalised Paris adventure. Day and night, these charming guides will share their capital with you and make you privy to its secrets, and their classic bikes offer a fun new way of discovering the streets, neighbourhoods and attractions of Paris.
