Paris Wedding Gift

Friends of ours are honeymooning in Paris (and other parts of France).

As an engagement gift we%26#39;d like to get them something relating to their honeymoon. Are there any passes (e.g. Eiffel tower) or similar that we could purchase for them that isn%26#39;t tied to a specific date. For example in Toronto we have CityPass which provides significant discounts at most tourist sites.

Thanks.

Well, there is a musuem pass but that is probably a little boring:

If you know they are going to a certain special restaurant, you could call and have a bottle of champagne included with their dinner or have a bottle of champagne delivered to their hotel/apartment.

A more off-the-wall idea is a tour in a 2CV

Thanks for the info and agreed, it%26#39;s not the most exciting idea. Again it%26#39;s only for their engagement gift, we%26#39;ll just give euros for the wedding gift.

A bottle of champs to the hotel room would be a belated engagement gift. We don%26#39;t want to commit them to an activity on a specific day.

Any other ideas are greatly appreciated.

Gee, I didn%26#39;t think the Museum Pass would be a boring idea at all. If I received that as an engagement gift, I%26#39;d be thrilled. It shows you%26#39;re thinking of them, it%26#39;s specific to their trip, and they can spend wonderful time together in Paris seeing so many fabulous museums and monuments thanks to you. Also, the passes don%26#39;t start running until they sign and date them, so it%26#39;s not date specific.

I%26#39;ve had clients give/receive these %26quot;coffret cadeau%26quot; before: weekendtour.fr/coffret-cadeau-week-end/coffr…

This one includes:

- One night at a hotel

- Breakfast for two

- Entrance on Bateau Mouches

- Some sort of concierge service.

The website says that this particular coffret expires on 12/31/09, but perhaps you can ask about extending it if necessary. Hope this helps!
