Day 1 – A first taste of the French capital

1- Climb up the Eiffel Tower

Your first day in Paris begins with one of the most iconic landmarks in the world: the Eiffel Tower (Tour Eiffel). This impressive iron tower on the Champ de Mars will take your breath away and will offer a fun activity to do first thing in the morning! 

Take the time to walk around, snap a photo with the tower (a must-do) and admire the stunning structure. Finally, if you are courageous, climb the tower for a breathtaking view of Paris.

Book your admission ticket in advance (Paris: Eiffel Tower Entry Ticket with Optional Summit Access) and hop on the elevator to access the different floors of this symbolic structure. Spend as much time as you like whilst you discover the French capital from a new perspective. 

From the top, you will have the chance to marvel at the ancient façade of the Louvre, the colourful Pompidou Museum and the beautiful Sacré-Coeur Basilica.

And if you are visiting with children, I recommend stopping on the first floor. You will find many exciting activities, such as testing your vertigo on the glass floor.

UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES I RECOMMEND

2- Picnic at the Champs de Mars

You will find the Champs de Mars extending below and behind the Eiffel Tower, a large green space offering a perfect picnic spot with incredible views of the Iron Tower. 

Take a stroll, relax or soak up the beautiful scenery as you discover this tranquil hideaway in the heart of the French capital.

Children will also love playing in the Champ de Mars gardens! You will find several playgrounds scattered around to unwind after a morning of sightseeing. 

Finally, if you have time in the evening, return to the Champs de Mars to admire the Eiffel Tower sparkling in the night. After sunset, the iconic landmark puts on a spectacular light show consisting of 20,000 twinkling lights: a must-see if you get the chance! 

3- Tour the Louvre

Champs de Mars – Louvre: 40min walk / 25min metro

You continue your discovery of Paris with another emblematic monument: the Louvre (Musée du Louvre), a former royal palace and one the most inspiring museums in the world located on the right bank of the Seine, home to some of the most important works of Western art, including the Mona Lisa and the Venus de Milo. 

You guessed it, visiting the Louvre Museum is an unmissable activity on your 3 days in Paris, whether or not you are into history and art.

I have explored the museum several times and never got tired of it! Also, keep in mind that it is spread across diverse halls, so you might not have the time to see everything. Select beforehand the things you want to experience. 

As a result, I advise booking your admission ticket in advance (Paris: Louvre Museum Timed-Entrance Ticket) to discover 8 centuries of French history as you walk through the different departments and see some of the most beautiful collections in the world, including antiquities, paintings, sculptures and decorative arts.

UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES I RECOMMEND

4- Walk through the Tuileries Garden

As you make your way to Place de la Concorde, stroll through the Tuileries Garden (Jardin des Tuileries), a public green space created by Catherine de Medici as the garden of the Tuileries Palace in 1564, which became a public park after the French Revolution.

The Tuileries Garden is a pleasant place for walking and enjoying the French culture as you will find many statues, cute ponds and the Musée de l’Orangerie, where you can admire the works of Monet.

5- Admire Place de la Concorde

You will finally arrive at Place de la Concorde, the largest square in the French capital and a must-see on your itinerary. Established in 1772, it was initially known as a place of execution during the French Revolution. 

More than 200 years later, the Place de la Concorde now constitutes a living testimony to history. And if you want to learn more about the French past, check out this tour: Paris: French Revolution Walking Tour.

Today, the square is famous for the Luxor Obelisk (a 3,300-year-old Egyptian obelisk), the surrounding prestigious hotels, and the two giant fountains (Fontaine des Mers and Fontaine des Fleuves). 

Finally, if you visit Place de la Concorde in December and Christmas time, hop aboard the Big Wheel (Grande Roue), a 65-meter observation wheel that offers spectacular views over the capital.

6- Stroll down the Champs-Élysées

Often described as the world’s most beautiful avenue and one of the top attractions in the French capital, the Champs-Élysées should be added to your bucket list on this 3-day Paris itinerary! 

Like the Eiffel Tower, the avenue is a symbol of Paris. It is lined with restaurants, luxury boutiques (Louis Vuitton, Mont-Blanc, Ferrari & more), flagship stores and nightclubs.

Walk along this majestic avenue and admire its beautiful monuments, indulge in a shopping spree or enjoy the main festive events organised here, such as the Bastille Day military parade, the arrival of the Tour de France and the Christmas lights.

Finally, the Avenue des Champs-Elysées is home to some top museums worth visiting, including the Grand Palais, the Petit Palais, the Palais de la Découverte and the Espace Culturel Louis Vuitton.

You guessed it; there is always something to do here, day or night.

7- Enjoy the view from the Arc de Triomphe

Your last stop on this first day in Paris will be the stunning Arc de Triomphe, one of the most famous monuments in the French capital, at the centre of Place Charles de Gaulle, formerly named Place de l’Étoile, due to the star crossroads formed by its 12 avenues.

Inspired by the splendid arches of Antiquity, this emblematic landmark carries the names of battles and generals of the Revolution and the First Empire. Every evening, the flame is lit at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier from the Great War. 

Take the time to admire the building, and if you want a breathtaking 360° viewpoint, climb to its terrace to enjoy sweeping views over the most well-known avenue and the entire capital day and night – perfect for a romantic evening as a couple. Book your admission ticket in advance: Paris: Arc de Triomphe Rooftop Tickets.

Day 2 – A wander along the Seine

1- Stroll through the Île Saint-Louis

Your second day in Paris begins with Île Saint-Louis, a quiet and elegant island in the heart of the French capital, where many locals like to live for its calm atmosphere.

Both a residential and historic district of the capital, this island is home to several hotels with dazzling facades overlooking the Seine: perfect if you love architectural photography! 

And as a true hidden gem set far from the hustle and bustle of the city, the island is a lovely place to start the day, stroll along the Seine or have breakfast. 

Finally, to reach its neighbouring island, Île de la Cité, you will find the Pont Saint-Louis, a bridge reserved for pedestrians and cyclists where street artists often perform, an ideal opportunity to take a break and enjoy the entertainment with a view.

2- Marvel at Notre-Dame Cathedral

Once on the Île de la Cité, stop at another iconic landmark, Notre-Dame de Paris, a stunning medieval Catholic cathedral considered one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture.

Despite the fire which took place in 2019 and destroyed a part of the monument, Notre-Dame remains a must-see on your Paris itinerary.

Even if it is still not possible to visit the entire Cathedral, you can now access the Parvis and the archaeological crypt. However, the towers and treasures remain closed until further notice.

Book your tour in advance (Paris: Notre Dame Outdoor Walking Tour with Crypt Entry) to admire the beautiful features of the well-known facade, explore centuries of history and visit the archaeological crypt to uncover the old foundations of the city.

3- Discover the Sainte-Chapelle

On the same island, you will also find the Sainte-Chapelle, a superb royal chapel in Gothic style and the residence of the Kings of France until the 14th century, which presents an exceptional collection of stained glass windows.

Built in the mid-13th century by Louis IX to house the relics of the Passion of Christ, the Sainte-Chapelle is today a jewel of Rayonnant Gothic architecture embellished with a unique collection of glass panels and a rose window forming a true wall of light you should not miss! 

Book your admission ticket to the Sainte-Chapelle and the Conciergerie in advance (Paris: Sainte-Chapelle and Conciergerie Combined Tickets) and discover the architectural beauty and rich cultural history of these two unique sites.

UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES I RECOMMEND

4- Walk along the Seine

Nothing better to continue your day than a stroll along the Seine, one of the best free activities to do in the French capital. This emblematic river has been at the heart of Paris since Roman times, and its banks are lined with stunning architecture, monuments, parks and more.

As you walk on the river path, you will come across famous landmarks and many second-hand booksellers, known as the Bouquiniste de Paris, where you can buy old books of all kinds – an iconic Parisian experience.

And if you have the time, you can also come back after sunset to discover the magic of Paris at night when the lights begin to twinkle, adding an extra layer of romance to the experience – perfect for couples looking for a romantic evening! 

Finally, if you want to uncover Paris from an unusual perspective, why not hop on an electric boat? You will have the chance to experience the French capital and its unique atmosphere sustainably. It is an activity I highly recommend, especially if you are visiting with friends.

Here are some eco-friendly boat cruises you should check out: 

• Ducasse sur Seine: you will have the pleasure to savour French cuisine with the feeling of sliding down the Seine thanks to clean and silent electric propulsion 👉🏻 book your tour.

• Green River Cruises: embark on a private cruise in small groups to experience Paris and treat yourself to a moment out of time whilst enjoying a glass of Chardonnay 👉🏻 book your tour.

5- Stop at the Musée d’Orsay

On your walk along the Seine, take a stop at the Musée d’Orsay, a museum internationally renowned for its rich collection of Impressionist art and Western artistic creations. 

Not only will you appreciate the various exhibitions and collections it hosts, but you will also love its architecture and stunning setting, housed in the former Gare d’Orsay, a palace-like Beaux-Arts train station, inaugurated for the 1900 Universal Exposition.

It is one of my favourite museums in Paris due to its comprehensive collections, which include paintings, sculptures, decorative arts and photography. I also advised you to check out their website beforehand to find out more about what is currently on. 

And as usual, book your admission ticket in advance (Paris: Musée d’Orsay 1-Day Ticket with Reserved Access) and enjoy the artistic masterpieces in one of the most remarkable museums in Paris.

UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES I RECOMMEND

6- Wander around Montmartre

Musée d’Orsay – Montmartre: 50min walk / 25min metro

It is impossible not to mention Montmartre on your 3 days in Paris, a district full of charm perched on the top of a small hill in the 18th arrondissement, and one of the best things to do during your city break. 

Mainly known for its artistic history, the white-domed Basilica of the Sacré-Cœur on its summit and as a nightclub district, it is an area worth visiting, at any time of the day, but especially in the evening.

I know I say it a lot, but this area is my favourite! I love climbing its picturesque stairs, wandering through its narrow cobbled streets, stopping by its cute cafés and shopping in its independent stores. 

I also love the fantastic views over Paris and the creative atmosphere of the neighbourhood, especially Place du Tertre, where you will find many artists.

Here is a guided walking tour I recommend if you would like to know more about Montmartre: Paris: Montmartre Cheese, Wine & Pastry Guided Walking Tour – the ultimate French experience! 

7- Watch the sunset from the Sacré-Coeur

It is time to end your day with one of the best viewpoints in Paris and another iconic landmark, the Sacré-Coeur Basilica (La Basilique du Sacré Cœur), a breathtaking white Roman Catholic Church perched on top of the Butte Montmartre.

Admire the exterior of the church and pass through its doors to discover the most extensive mosaic in France on its ceiling, measuring approximately 480 m². You will also have the chance to visit the crypt, and for those not afraid of heights, climb up to the dome for a 360° view of Paris, which is particularly special at sunset! 

Here is a guided tour I recommend for a scenic walk around Montmartre, which includes the Basilica: Paris: Sacré-Coeur and Montmartre Tour with Expert Guide.

Day 3 – A step back in time

OPTION 1 – Spend a day at the Palace of Versailles

For your last day in Paris, you have the option to spend the entire day at the Palace of Versailles (Château de Versailles), the former French royal residence built by King Louis XIV, now a national landmark and UNESCO World Heritage Site. 

Together with its gardens, the Palace is one of the most famous world heritage monuments. The domain highlights the architectural style of the 17th and 18th centuries and is a must-see at any time of the year. 

Book your admission ticket in advance (Paris: Versailles Palace and Gardens Full Access Ticket) to visit the Palace and its magnificent gardens. Discover the decorated State Apartments and spectacular Hall of Mirrors inside the official residence of the French monarchy, and learn more about Louis XIV and other French royals. 

And, of course, do not miss the renowned gardens, which you can explore at your own pace and uncover fountains, sculptures and beautifully manicured lawns. Plus, during spring and summer, you can enjoy a sensational fountain show or the iconic musical gardens to end your visit.

As you can see, exploring the Palace of Versailles will take you time and usually even take a day, as there is so much to do and see, from the complex (including Marie Antoinette estate and Trianon) to its stunning extensive gardens. Choose beforehand what you want to do. 

You can spend the entire day there if you wish, or only a morning to have more time to explore Paris – or you can skip it to stay in the capital (Versailles is 1 hour away by metro and RER).

UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES I RECOMMEND

OPTION 2 – Continue exploring Paris

Here are a few more things you can do on your third day in Paris depending on the time you have.

1- Visit the Catacombs 

If you decide to skip the Palace of Versailles or only do a bit in the morning, you can continue exploring Paris with a visit to the Catacombs, an underground cemetery that houses the remains of more than 6 million people.

I know it might sound weird, but it is one of the top attractions to do in Paris! This narrow underground labyrinth dates back to the 13th century to mine the limestone that helped build the city and has since become a site of fascination – but not for everyone! 

I recommend joining a guided tour (Paris Catacombs Skip-the-Line Guided Tour and Special Access) to descend 20 meters below the streets of Paris and learn more about why the remains of over 6 million people were transported underground in the 18th century whilst finding yourself surrounded by bones and skulls, carefully arranged with respect.

UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES I RECOMMEND

2- Discover the Luxembourg Gardens

Catacombs – Luxembourg Gardens: 20min walk

As you continue wandering through Paris, make a stop at one of the most beautiful green spaces in the French capital: the Luxembourg Gardens (Jardin du Luxembourg), created in 1612 when Marie de Medici built the Luxembourg Palace as her new residence, inspired by the Boboli Gardens in Florence.

The stunning gardens, which cover 25 hectares of land, are divided into French and English inspirations, and between the two lies a geometric forest and a large pond. It is a great place to relax, stroll around or enjoy some history through the 106 statues spread throughout the park, the Medici fountain, the Orangerie and the Pavillon Davioud. 

And for families with children, you will find plenty of fun activities, especially great on a sunny day, such as pony rides, chess boards, remote-controlled boats and a puppet theatre.

3- Stop by the Pantheon

Your next stop on this 3-day Paris itinerary will be the Pantheon, a majestic religious and patriotic monument constructed around 1757 by the architect Jacques-Germain Soufflot as the Church of Sainte-Geneviève to glorify the monarchy. 

It was then transformed in 1789 by the French Revolution into a temple dedicated to the memory of the men and women who have marked French history, receiving the name Panthéon.

I recommend joining a self-guided tour (Paris: Panthéon Admission Ticket and Self-Guided Tour) to explore the inside, step back in time as you uncover the past of the building and the resting site of famous French personalities, and enjoy the views from the upper floors (from April to October).

4- Stroll through Le Marais

Pantheon – Le Marais: 30min walk / 25min bus

Head north and cross the Seine to discover the romantic and trendy Marais district, with its pretty cobbled streets, quirky boutiques, up-and-coming galleries, hip bars and historic spots – the perfect place to soak up the local vibe and culture! 

Here are some top things to do & see in Le Marais: 

• Visit the Musée Picasso-Paris
• Join a food tour: Food and Wine Tasting Walking Tour in Le Marais
• Stroll around the cobbled streets
• Indulge in a shopping spree
• Relax at Place des Vosges
• Shop at the Marché des Enfants Rouges
• Stop by the Pompidou Center

5- Explore more museums

As Paris is full of fascinating museums and galleries, it is challenging to select which ones to visit during your short city break! 

Here are a few more museums you can add to your list if you have time or would like to learn more about history, culture and art:  

• Musée des Arts et Métiers
• Musée du Quai Branly
• Jeu de Paume
• Musée Bourdelle
• Musée des Arts Décoratifs
• Musée Marmottan Monet 
• Musée Carnavalet

6- Uncover Pigalle at night

Finally, to end your magical 3 days in Paris, head to Pigalle for a night you will never forget. This hip district is famous for its neon-lit red lights and eclectic nightlife, from the 19th-century cabaret Moulin Rouge to classy cocktail bars.

If the area was well-known for its sex shops and hostess clubs, it has recently undergone a major transformation to become one of the trendiest spots in the capital.

Take a picturesque stroll, stop at a local bistro, eat at a trendy restaurant or dance the night away at one of its clubs – you will be spoiled for choice for a fun-filled evening.

And, of course, you can also watch a cabaret show at the world-famous Moulin Rouge whilst sipping sparkling champagne and enjoying the colourful decors and performances. Book your admission ticket here: Moulin Rouge Cabaret Show Ticket with Champagne.

If you have more time…

If you have more time in the French capital or would like to switch things around, you can add Disneyland Paris to your itinerary. I have visited both parks many times and always have so much fun!

How to get to Paris

The best way to get to Paris in any season will depend on where you come from and your budget, but there are many options to reach the French capital. 

One of the quickest ways to get to Paris is by plane. Paris has two international airports (Charles de Gaulle and Orly) connected to the main cities in the world. But please try to prioritise direct flights to reduce your carbon footprint – if flying is the only option. Once at the airport, you can easily take the RER, metro or bus to reach the city centre. 

One of the most eco-friendly ways to get to Paris is by train. The capital benefits from an extensive railway network linking to the main cities in the country and Europe, including the Eurostar, connecting you to London in no time.

Finally, the most affordable option to get to Paris is by coach. It is a great way to reach the French capital if you are exploring Europe on a budget, but it can take longer. Check out the bus company Eurolines, which operates throughout Europe.

How to get around Paris

Once in Paris, you will find many options for getting around the capital. 

The best way (eco-friendly too) to travel around Paris is on foot. The capital is not too big and easily accessible on foot, even on a short day trip or weekend getaway, as the main attractions are within walking distance of each other. Plus, it is the perfect way to see the best sights whilst exercising!

The second best option to get around Paris is by public transport. The French capital has a reliable and efficient transportation network that will take you anywhere in no time. It is one of the quickest ways to travel around the city, and my favourite way too! The metro in Paris is incredibly helpful and not too expensive. You can buy a day ticket at any metro station. The bus is also great, but I found the metro easier and quicker.

The last and fun option is to travel around Paris by bike. It is a fantastic way to get around the city whilst reducing your carbon footprint! However, I recommend being careful of the cars and traffic if you are exploring the capital with children.

Best time to visit Paris

The best times to visit Paris (without crowds) are spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October). These months offer nice mild weather without too many tourists and lower rates, which is the perfect combination to discover the best of the French capital.

Summer can also be a lovely time to visit Paris, which experiences warm temperatures and plenty of activities and festivals between June and August. It is an ideal season for sightseeing, but often with crowded streets and high rates.

Generally speaking, avoid visiting Paris in August and during the Christmas holidays (peak times). The city becomes overly busy and expensive, making it difficult to enjoy and explore properly.

But no matter what season you choose, I am sure you will have a wonderful experience in this magical city! 

Personal note – From my experience and having lived there for a while, I love Paris in spring, when the flowers blossom, the weather becomes sunnier, and the green spaces reopen. I also love wintertime – I know the city is busy, but I love the capital and its atmosphere around Christmas. A ramble through Montmartre during that time of year is one of my favourite things to do!

How to reduce your impact in Paris

Sustainable travel means exploring the world whilst being aware of your surroundings and having a positive social, environmental and economic impact on the places you visit.

READ MORE: Sustainable Travel Guide to Paris, France

Being a responsible traveller in Paris is possible! Here are some eco-friendly travel tips for reducing your carbon footprint:

• Use the train to reach the capital. Paris is incredibly well-connected by train to the rest of the world, so prioritise travelling this way to lower your carbon impact.

• If you need to take the plane, book direct flights (which require less fuel than indirect flights) and offset your carbon footprint. But, do not use carbon offsetting as a complete solution. Combine it with other sustainable practices, like avoiding single-use plastic on the plane and mindfully packing your suitcase for your green city break. 

• Select an eco-friendly accommodation. It is not always easy to determine whether a hotel has eco-conscious practices, but try to look on their website for green credentials and ask questions. You can also use Bookdifferent or Ecobnb to help you decide.

• Once there, use public transport. Paris has an efficient public transportation network that can take you anywhere easily and on a budget. Another way to get around sustainably is on foot. But if walking is too tiring, use the bike! The capital is ideal for cycling around at your own pace.

• Eat at local restaurants that use produce from the area and emphasise organic and sustainability. It will contribute to the local economy and reduce your carbon footprint by supporting restaurants where food does not come from long distances.

• Always respect the local heritage. Treat people and their surroundings with respect. Sustainable travel is not only about the environment but also about the local communities. So, always be respectful, smile and learn a few French words.
