2025 Paris Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in December)

#TravelHacks 7:00 Arrive at Paris CDG Airport Travel by train 10:00 Louvre Museum (purchase tickets in advance) You should enter from the Ferris wheel side. ⚠️ If you enter from the back, you'll be approached by some shady girls and asked to sign petitions and make donations. Note that there is no donation required to enter. Follow the Mona Lisa signs, or ask a museum staff member for the Mona Lisa 🥺 and they'll show you the way! If you're just looking to see the Mona Lisa, you'll only need about 30 minutes to see it. If you head to the exit of the Louvre building, you'll find a wide variety of souvenirs! There's a Starbucks and shopping mall right inside the building. It's directly connected, so there's lots of cute goods. 12:00 Lunch: Burgundy escargot, Beef boeuf Bourguignon! Le Minet Galant: Visit with a reservation in advance 1:30 PM: Take the train to Paris Disneyland Look for the big Mickey Mouse sign on the RER A line! Arrive at Disneyland at 2:30 PM Selfie sticks are not allowed! It took a while to check into the locker, so don't bring one! 5:00 PM: Arrive at Disney Studios If you buy a two-park ticket, you can go back and forth and re-enter. The Crush coaster was out of sync, so hurry while it was still running! I didn't have the energy to make it to the 7:00 PM night show, so I headed home (23:00 night show at the castle) Take the train from downtown Paris to the airport →Look for the airplane sign at your feet! Don't worry if you don't understand English! Even though I forgot to buy Remy at the last minute, they had plenty of them at the airport. (^-^) *Be careful, as night trains can be unsafe. *If you're planning a quick trip after a long flight, be sure to take a break. *I was clutching my security alarm, but it never came in handy. 🙌 *I'm glad I had a backpack cover. #SoloWomanTraveler #DisneylandParis #LouvreMuseum #MyTravelPlan

#November Good Places 2025 The point of this trip to Paris is to have fun in the city center without having to worry about traffic. The most convenient must be near the opera house! So I chose the InterContinental Paris Le Grand, which really saves me a lot of time. The location of the hotel is definitely the biggest selling point. It is located at 2 Rue Scribe, across the street from the Paris Opera House, and around the corner to the Galeries Lafayette department store, which is super convenient for morning and evening shopping, watching shows, and buying souvenirs. Several lines of the nearby metro intersect, making it a quick ride to any attraction and easy to get over from the airport. Back at night, the hotel lobby, corridors European-style carvings and gorgeous chandeliers make you feel like you are living in a classic Parisian scene. Speaking of rooms, some have a terrace, sitting out against the city night view and the opera house, super French feel, and soundproofing is done well, not afraid of waking up from the streets at night. The hotel environment is cleaned quite carefully every day, the bedding is changed daily, the bathroom water pressure is strong enough, the bath is very comfortable. Some room types can also be checked in in advance, which is a courteous arrangement for those who want to throw down their luggage and go out immediately after an early flight arrives. The breakfast is sincere, French bread, cheese, frozen meat buffet options, there are actually Asian hot food, such as fried noodles or congee, very suitable for friends who started to miss Chinese food after walking for a few days. The overall quality of service is good, the staff has Chinese service, and they are willing to help solve problems when they encounter them. However, there are really some users suggested that some facility maintenance can be paid attention to again, such as waiting for the concierge response sometimes to wait longer, need more proactive inquiries. The surroundings and the hotel itself are great for photo ops. When walking down the hotel corridor, you see full of European splendid decorations, great for photography. You can reach the lobby of the Opera House within a minute, which is not to be missed. There are also small cafes and elegant bookstores nearby, so you can sit down and enjoy coffee at any time when you are tired. Trip tip: Paris landmarks are mostly concentrated in the core circle, living in the opera district can save a lot of time every day, it is recommended to walk mainly. Keep your belongings in check near the department store. It's best to put them in batches when shopping. The hotel can send the package home on your behalf. In addition, Paris restaurants have custom tips when they are busy, so you don't have to be too pretentious.

Paris still feels like a dream. From quiet morning walks along the Seine to the golden Eiffel Tower sparkling at night — this city makes you fall in love without even trying. ✨ One thing I learned? The Eiffel Tower has two completely different personalities — you need to experience both. 🌤 Daytime View – Champ de Mars Perfect for photos, picnics, and soaking in the classic postcard view. The greenery, the symmetry… everything feels soft and romantic. Best time to come: 🕘 9AM – 11AM (less crowd, softer light) 🌙 Night View – From the Seine River My favourite part. The tower glows in gold, and every hour it sparkles for 5 minutes — the whole riverbank just stops to watch. Pure magic. Sparkling schedule: ✨ Every hour after sunset until 11PM 📸 Tips to capture better photos • Stand across the river for a full-height night shot • Use a low angle at Champ de Mars for a taller frame • Wear light colours — it pops beautifully against the tower • Come early if you want clean background shots 🗼 Eiffel Tower Opening Hours 🕒 9:30AM – 11:45PM daily (Lifts run until 11PM) Paris doesn’t need filters — it just needs you to slow down and look up. 🤍

Who understands! The romance of Paris is not a legend at all; it’s a tenderness that heals you just by walking the streets😭 The Seine sparkles in the early morning light, boats slowly glide past the Pont Neuf, and the plane trees on both banks gently sway their branches. Occasionally, you can see street artists sketching, and under their brushstrokes, Paris looks just like an Impressionist painting. Strolling along the riverbank, the Eiffel Tower stretches its silhouette in the morning light. You don’t need to find a special angle; every snap naturally captures a cinematic atmosphere✨ In the afternoon, head to Montmartre Hill, where white walls and red-tiled houses are covered in flowers, and the dome of the Sacré-Cœur Basilica glimmers in the sunlight. Sitting on the steps eating a strawberry ice cream, listening to street musicians playing guitar, watching couples embrace and kiss—the air is filled with the sweet scent of love. When tired, turn into a corner café, order an espresso with a croissant. The crispy crust wrapped in buttery aroma, watching hurried passersby outside the window, you finally understand what “French relaxation” means. The evening Eiffel Tower is the main event! At sunset, golden sunlight bathes the tower in a warm glow. When night falls, the hourly sparkling light show begins as promised, thousands of lights twinkle in the night sky like stars falling to earth. Surrounded by gasps and camera clicks, your heart truly races at that moment~ Paris’s romance is hidden in the details: the reflection in front of the Louvre Pyramid, the shadows of plane trees on the Champs-Élysées, the winding cobblestone streets of the Old Town, the exquisite macarons in shop windows… It’s not a deliberately created influencer vibe but an elegance and laziness that runs deep in its bones, making you never want to leave once you arrive❤️ Every spot in Paris holds a story. Whether it’s an artistic treasure or a romantic landmark, it’s worth savoring slowly~ Only after visiting these can you truly understand the charm of this city❤️

Every year from November to January, Paris transforms into a fairy-tale city of "eating, drinking, and shopping" amid winter lights and cinnamon-scented street corners.

#europeonbudget Paris, the City of Light, often comes with a hefty price tag, but a savvy traveller can experience its romance and culture without draining their savings. Accommodation will be your biggest expense, so DO book well in advance. Opt for hostels like St Christopher's Inn or Generator for dorm beds starting around €20-€40, or look for budget-friendly hotels and apartment rentals further from the super-central arrondissements, though proximity to a Metro station is key. Getting around is both efficient and affordable thanks to the comprehensive Métro and bus network. DO purchase the Navigo Découverte Weekly Pass (€30.00 plus a €5 card fee) if you are staying for a calendar week (Monday-Sunday) and arriving/departing early in the week, as it offers unlimited travel across all zones, including the airports. Otherwise, buy a rechargeable Navigo Easy Pass (€2) and load it with discounted e-tickets (a carnet of 10 is much cheaper than singles). DON'T buy the much more expensive Paris Visite Pass. Alternatively, DO walk! Paris is highly walkable, and strolling the Seine's banks and the picturesque side streets is a free activity in itself. To keep costs down, DON'T eat all your meals in tourist-trap restaurants. Instead, DO embrace the Parisian picnic: grab a fresh baguette, cheese, and cured meats from a local boulangerie and fromagerie and enjoy it in a beautiful park like the Jardin du Luxembourg or under the Eiffel Tower on the Champ de Mars. Seek out lunchtime fixed menus (formules) for the best value dining, often under €20. For attractions, DO take advantage of Paris's incredible free offerings: admire the exteriors of Notre-Dame and the Louvre, explore the free municipal museums like the Petit Palais, and climb the steps of Sacré-Cœur in Montmartre for a priceless view. DON'T forget to check for free museum entrance on the first Sunday of the month. #ParisOnABudget #BudgetTravelFrance #NavigoPass #FreeParis #ParisPicnic #CheapEatsParis #SacreCoeurView

So what are the best things to do in Paris in 1 day? Where do I even start? There are millions of things to do in Paris so it’s definitely worth doing a little bit of planning to figure out what you want to see and do the most. Another thing to keep in mind is that part of Paris’ charm are the streets, buildings, and neighbourhoods. While it definitely takes longer, I try to explore as much of the city as possible by foot. I’m not saying walk from Montmartre to the Eiffel tower, but you could walk from the Arc du Triomphe to the Eiffel Tower. The Eiffel Tower Getting a photo of the Eiffel Tower may be the most touristy thing to do, but it’s also a must. I’ll be honest; I’ve now been to Paris 10 times and I still haven’t actually been up the Eiffel Tower. I prefer a city view that includes the Eiffel Tower in it so I go to the base and surrounding area for photos every time I visit. If you do want to climb the tower there are two ticket types: one for the elevator and one for the stairs. Not surprisingly, the stairs are the cheaper option. There are also two viewing platforms with the top being more expensive than the second floor. It’s a good idea to book your tickets in advance to skip the lines- they are long! Arc de Triomphe Located at the end of the Champ-Elysees, the Arc de Triomphe is another iconic Paris Monument. The structure is a war memorial honouring those who fought for France. Names are carved into the stone of the arch and there is also a memorial flame. Ticket holders can also climb to the top where they will be rewarded with beautiful panoramic views of the city. I recommend going in the evening to see the city all lit up. Notre Dame Cathedral & The Seine Notre Dame is located along the Seine and provides a perfect opportunity to walk along this famous river. While walking, keep an eye out for Paris’ beautiful bridges including Pont Neuf and Pont Alexandre III. Walking is a great way to see these sites, but if you are looking for something different and a little more laid back consider taking a seine river cruise. Museums of Paris Paris has dozens of museums, but if you only have one day in Paris, then there is no way you will have time to see them all. Unless you are a museum person, I suggest picking one and saving the rest for another trip. The Louvre is by far the most popular and while I did enjoy going to see the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, and Winged Victory, it wasn’t my favourite museum. I personally preferred the Musée d’Orsay; a converted old train station with a huge variety of artworks. A third recommendation, and one that you can spend a shorter amount of time in, is the Musée de l’Orangerie which houses Claude Monet’s famous Water Lillies. Find a spot on the bench in one of the circular rooms and just try to take it all in. It’s pretty incredible. #paris #paristrip #paristravel #eiffeltower #europetrip #travel #thingstodo #citydaytours

#europeonbudget In autumn, Paris transforms into a poetic dream. Tree-lined boulevards shimmer in gold, the Seine River reflects fiery colors, and cozy cafés invite you to linger over a croissant and café au lait. Stroll through the Luxembourg Gardens or Tuileries, where crisp leaves frame elegant statues and fountains. The Eiffel Tower glows even warmer against the autumn sky, and evening walks along the Seine feel timelessly romantic. Fewer crowds, soft light, and rich flavors make autumn the most enchanting season to experience the City of Love. Travel Tips: • Visit from late September to early November for the best fall colors. • Bring layers — Paris weather can change quickly. • Explore neighborhoods like Montmartre and Le Marais for cozy cafés. • Enjoy a river cruise at sunset for magical views.

Opera Garnier is a place I definitely wanted to visit when I went to France! 💁 The Grand Foyer was a sight to behold, not to mention the grand staircase and the theater interior!!! It was so gorgeous, I wanted to take pictures. And the shop at the end was amazing! Of course they had music-related merchandise, but the Opera Garnier original merchandise was just too cute!! The logo was adorable, and they had pink goods like bags, tin-shaped tablets, and ballet slipper charms! They also had original silver and gold items that were super cute. They make perfect souvenirs! You can also purchase exclusive Opera Garnier souvenir euro banknotes from the machine! It was fun. (I bought some!) I recommend purchasing tickets in advance!! 📍Location: Pl. de l'Opéra, 75009 Paris, France #OperaGarnier #FranceTrip #ParisTour #FrenchSouvenirs
