    Step inside one of Paris’s most iconic landmarks and discover the extraordinary story of Napoleon Bonaparte—from ambitious young officer to Emperor of the French. Your expert local guide brings his world to life as you explore the Musée de l’Armée’s galleries dedicated to his campaigns, reforms, victories, and defeats.

    After the museum, follow your guide beneath the shimmering golden dome to the breathtaking tomb of Napoleon I. Surrounded by marbled walls and symbolic sculptures, you’ll hear the fascinating story of his final years in exile, the dramatic return of his remains to Paris, and how he became a near-mythical figure for generations of French people. Designed for curious travellers—not just military history buffs—this small-group tour offers an engaging, accessible introduction to the man behind the legend, all inside one of Paris’s most awe-inspiring monuments.
