    If you like Impressionist art, don't miss this museum! Do yourself a favor and buy your tickets early, and head up to the highest floor right away. It maximizes your time and your enjoyment!

    Certainly a wow moment when you first see the tower after leaving the metro , we didnt get to go up however just seeing this icon of Paris in the flesh was a moment to remember. Very impressive spoilt only a little by the dozens of people selling tacky flashing models of the tower on the street. Certainly best to spend the time and a little money going up to view Paris from the top , next time perhaps ....

    No one would like to miss Louvre, nor did we. In fact our first activity in Paris was Louvre Museum, Always buy tickets in advance to save time and just roam as much inside as possible. You need lots and lots time inside. We spent about 3 hours there and had a good overall view of the museum including famous Mona Lisa painting.

    This majestic handsome man is now under reconstruction after the 2019 fire. Now modern technologies have stepped forward a lot, plus the cathedral is loved all over the world, so a huge number of patrons have allocated money for its restoration. We look forward to seeing it in full beauty again.

    This garden was my absolute favorite! It's more intimate, more scenic, and cooler than the other gardens in Paris. Grab a book and a blanket and make an afternoon out of it!

    We were in Paris for a week and on our first day, we walked to the Arc de Triumph! Even from afar, the majesty of the arc is apparent! Make sure to take the pedestrian tunnel to cross under the heavily traveled streets.

    We had advanced tickets through the Paris Pass and we were able to get in line and get into the Arc relatively quickly. Our adult children walked up the stairs (there are a lot of them), but, being older adults, my spouse and i asked about the lift (elevator) and were allowed to ride up to the top. Still, there are 40 stairs that were left to climb.

    The views at the top are NOT to be missed. Magnificent. It was one of our favorite memories in Paris.

    Our tour guide recommended this place for us to visit on our free time. If you love stained glass windows, this is the place for you. I literally gasped when I entered the main room. Absolutely gorgeous!

    We visited on a Wednesday at 3:00pm. It was very busy like we expected given it was a pretty sunny day and a popular attraction. It’s a beautiful Catholic Church, construction began in 1875, completed in 1914. We waited in line about 20 min to go through security to get in. The inside is beautiful and free to see. To get to the dome, you need to go back outside, and down the steps on the left side of the church. 7 euros per person, purchased tickets on site, only a few people in front of us so waited just a few minutes. 300 stairs to the top (no lift). A tight fit in many places and not good if you get claustrophobic, but once up the views are amazing. We spent about 1.5 hours there. Also there were people selling ice cold bottled water/soda around the outside of the church (1 euro/water, 2euro/soda, cash only). Taxis available at the foot of the outdoor steps. It was definitely worth seeing!

    We visited on a Friday at 3:00pm since we were walking through the neighborhood. Only about a 5 minute wait to buy tickets on site. 15 euro/person >11yo for a self guided tour. This magnificent opera house opened in 1875. It was very beautiful, but we walked through and were done in about 20min. It was very hot & crowded inside. The price seemed high for a self guided tour. I would have rather seen a show but none were available during our time in Paris. Despite the price & heat it was worth seeing.

    A must activity for all going to PARIS. Whether you take a normal cruise or one with Dining options but it is so lively and fun loving activity, you would cherish for lifetime. We boarded a normal cruise from the bottom part of Tower and it was a fantastic 1 hour cruise.

    Walk around and enjoy the unique atmosphere. This is perhaps one of the few places where I am happy to bring souvenirs. Translated from the Latin "Mons Martis" means "Mount of Mars". Legend has it that temples dedicated to Mars and Mercury were erected here in ancient times. In honor of the first, this place was named.

    Wonderful area of Paris, lots of cafes, shops and boutiques with typically French hotels. Only a short distance for a lovely walk along the Seine…the perfect place to stay for a long weekend in Paris!

    Worth the visit if you did not get enough art in the Louvre or Orsey. Monet’s water lilies are the main attraction but there is much to see in addition. The crowd was quite small so you can spend some more time admiring the works.

    Pont Alexandre III is definitely worth a visit for its beautiful ornamentation. It's also within walking distance of several important tourist destinations, as it It connects the Champs-Élysées quarter with those of the Invalides and Eiffel Tower..

    After several trips to Paris, I finally decided to visit the Rodin museum. Wonderful surprise. A pearl hidden in the heart of the city. Located in a magnificent palace with a fabulous garden. The works on display are extraordinary pieces of art. The works are divided into interior and exterior. The garden is an oasis of tranquility in the interior of Paris. I recommend without hesitation
