Paris in 7 Days Tour & Extra Curricular Activities

I am attending this tour in February and also looking to visit the Catacombs and see a show at the Moulin Rouge after completing that day's activites. I was curious if anyone had experience managing to do this and what day(s) they recommend to visit either of these places, based on the current itinerary of the 7 day tour.

Thank you in advance!

Before you book anything, call the office to make sure the itinerary is still the same as listed. It NORMALLY has the same things on the same days but there are occasional diversions due to circumstances in a location. I'd also ask what time they have tickets for the Louvre tour just so you know the timing in case you want to do the Moulin Rouge that night.

You have free afternoons on Day 2 and Day 6 so you could do the Catacombs on those afternoons. You could do the Moulin Rouge on Day 2 or Day 3 if you want to skip the Seine Cruise or Day 4.

I'd not do the Moulin Rouge on Day 5 when you go to Versailles. When I did this tour we did the palace together and then did the gardens on our own and were given RER tickets to get back to Paris on our own (very easy). It's a long day and I was tired!

This is an excellent tour! I learned so much and it really increased my comfort level in Paris. Downside? Uh.....well, I can't get enough of Paris and have to keep going back!
