Sunrise Run & Sightseeing in Paris
Overview
Choose your distance: 6 km (4 m) or 10 km (6 m), and let's go! We’ll be chasing the sunrise on a gentle run (your pace), plunging you into an unexpectedly empty Paris. At this time of the day, most people are still sleeping and the rising sun colours the monuments and buildings with nuances of pink and gold. This is Paris as you’ve probably never seen before!
We’ve carefully planned every step of this running tour for you to learn inside stories and fun facts, have a great time and work out before breakfast. You don’t have to lift a finger: only to move your legs!
Some reasons for joining a RUNRUN TOUR:
✔️Get to know Paris from a top-class local runner, learning things that you can't find in a guide book
✔️We're "the glamping of running": Bottled water, healthy snacks and a waterproof running jacket in case of rain are provided
✔️Work out before breakfast, feeling free to earn later the calories burned
✔️Relax and don't worry about getting lost or planning a running route by yourself

Andrea took us on a wonderful run around the monuments of the city. This was a great way to see the highlights in a short time frame. She was very patient with the kids, and very knowledgeable about the history of Paris. We are all runners and the pace was quite doable. Andrea even took the kids for a little speed work on a straight away. The city was beautiful in the early morning. Communication made the meet up easy and Andrea provided water and snacks. I would highly recommend this tour.AvaAnd

2nd time doing this run although a different one this time. 7am start and taken by Hamidou as last one Andrea his partner. The 12k route was all on history of Paris. Once again group looked after and excellent experience which def was worth the early start. Water provided and a fun morning which def lead into the day of satisfaction when going for breakfast! Can't recommend enough as both running guides helpful and very warm and friendly. I took a friend who loved it..... You can't avoid good food in this city so even on a short vacation it is great to have some active stuff going on and this is fantastic. Will always include this on my annual tripsshelby6493

I only had about 40 hours in Paris and knew I needed to do a training run during that time. After searching “best runs in Paris,” I found RunRun Tours. I booked the 10K sightseeing tour and it was amazing. Andrea was a phenomenal guide, even with a few detours due to setups for Bastille Day. We’re both ultra marathoners and enjoy cross training, so the conversation was easy! She took a ton of photos of me at monuments that turned out amazing — much better than the race photos you usually get. If you’re in Paris and want to see the city by foot, book this tour!Ninoska_Macavilca

I enjoyed the journey from beginning to end. The good information of each historical monument and the friendliness of my guide have made this tour one of the most memorable. If you are a lover of running, this is the best way to get to know Paris!
