Prestigious Ceremonies on my home near the Eiffel Tower
Meet at the host's Parisian home for a private, festive dinner featuring gourmet French dishes and Champagne. Vegetarian dishes and cheese plates are provided. This is an intimate, seated meal for a small group; please arrive at the meeting address on time.
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive 10 minutes early to the meeting address (3 Rue Emile Duclaux, 75015 Paris) to allow for building entry; if you have trouble, call the host contact provided at booking.
- Dress festive smart-casual for an intimate dinner setting; bring ID if you plan to join a later club.
- Inform the host of any dietary restrictions or allergies at least 24 hours in advance; vegetarian options are available but the host needs notice.
Ceremony of New Year and other celebrations (Eiffel Tower or downtown club)
After dinner we will go out to continue the celebration. Depending on the evening plan and local conditions this may mean walking to a viewing area near the Eiffel Tower (Champ de Mars / Trocadéro) to enjoy the evening lights and festivities, or heading to a nearby downtown club to dance and welcome the New Year.

Tips from local experts:

- Bring government photo ID for club entry; many Paris venues enforce age checks and a smart dress code late-night.
- Agree a practical meeting point and time with the host before leaving (mobile reception can be spotty in crowds); consider a taxi or licensed ride-hail for return trips late at night.

Why this experience
A private festive dinner in a Parisian home a few steps from the Eiffel Tower — Champagne on arrival, a prestigious French menu with gourmet courses and a cheese plate, vegetarian options prepared to the same standard, and an intimate seated setting with a small group rather than a crowded restaurant. After dinner, the evening continues with a walk to the Eiffel Tower for the light spectacle on Champ de Mars or a move to a downtown club to dance into the celebration. The entire arc runs from a candlelit home-hosted meal to midnight festivities against the backdrop of Paris at its most electric.
Un guide d'exception hosts this in their own Parisian apartment near the tower, keeping the evening personal and unhurried. The dinner runs approximately two and a half hours with time to linger over courses before the group heads out for the evening's second act. Dietary restrictions and allergies are accommodated with advance notice. Check the booking widget for current pricing and availability.
Whether you want a Christmas Eve or New Year's dinner in Paris that feels like being invited into a local's home rather than booking a restaurant, a couples' celebration where Champagne, gourmet food, and Eiffel Tower views are wrapped into a single evening, or an intimate festive experience that combines a private meal with after-dinner festivities, this holiday evening delivers the celebration Paris is famous for — from the dining table to the tower lights.
