Go up just before the sun sets, and you'll se how Paris lights up, one district at a time. Truly amazing!

For getting around easily, use the great Vélib community bicycle service. The daily fee is EUR 1 and using bicycles for up to 30 minutes is free after that. When using the bikes for longer, the prices increase every 30 minutes, so this is clearly intended for short-time use. Suggested use pattern: Grab a bike, drive to the next spot you want to visit, drop the bike. There shouldn't be a problem to find a station, as they are located within 300m distance from each other. Just try to avoid the stations at the main sights, chances are really bad there is a free place to return a bike at the Eiffel tower, for example. Two streets further, the situation usually looks better already.

When standing under the arc, the straight Champs Élysées looks really amazing and the Arc de Triomphe in the distance is alligned perfectly.

I've just booked two nights to stay at the Hotel Odeon in St Germain. http://www.odeonhotel.fr/ It's well priced, in a great location and looks cool. Has been highly recommended by many people and I selected it after 3 hours of research.

The cathedral of Notre Dame is a very impressive sight. I was fortunate enough to walk in to Sunday Mass, which was very impressive. Also, there is a cemetary tour, which takes you into the catacombs under the Notre Dame. The catacombs tour is a must see, and it took me back to Indian Jones movie when he is looking for the grail!

This majestic Gothic cathedral is a mystic must-see experience in the middle of Paris, on an island in river Seine. It's Grandes Orgues are one of the best of its kind in the whole world, so do not miss a concert every Sunday on 4:30 pm.

Use the Metro to get around. It is fast, cheap and you don't have to worry about parking.

Although I wasn't a child anymore, Disney Land was a total adventure for me. The age doesn't really matter, this is a wonderland for everyone! I also saw the parade, sun was shining and everything was so great! That was an unforgettable day in my life. I think that one day isn't really enough, you can spend undoubtly three days or more in that magic world.

mxaddison

mxaddison from USA wrote about La Villa Hotel - Paris 2 years ago

La Villa hotel is a small, modern hotel located on the Left Bank of Paris. It was designed by a student of Philip Stark has has a cool Jetsons-looking jazz bar downstairs. But the rooms themselves are tiny and downright sterile and gloomy feeling You don't get any of the passion of Paris. The only good thing is the hotel is located in a perfect spot at 29 Rue Jacob. Literally across the street is where Colette wrote; next door is where Ingres painted; the Seine, Louvre and Notre Dame are only two blocks away. But there are plenty of other boutique hotels in this area of Saint Germain de Pres that give you more of the Paris ambiance.

the windows here are a marvel: each has a metal mechanism that opens the aperture to control the amount of sunlight coming through. beautiful from the outside, crazy interesting on the inside. a beautiful building. bonus: next to the seine, near a beautiful garden, and the bistro on the corner is pretty good.

nipsu from Finland wrote about Louvre one year, 3 months ago

Louvre has 35,000 works of art, so it isn't that much, when I compare it for example with Hermitage Museum, where I also have been. But as everyone knows, you can see there the famous portrait of Mona Lisa. I think it was somehow a disillusion for me, because that portrait was so small and there where so many people ahead of it! But that museum as a whole was still worth seeing.

Wonder whether it is really worth about 50 Euros to get a possibility to spend a whole day standing in endless queues. Even in the end of October. In France there should be places for everyone with possibilities to experience something more authentic...

The whole area of Disney Land is a huge shopping place! But, there are lots of little boutiques and I'm sure you can't leave the place without bying something. It's all so "commercial"(sad but true), but everyone buys little mickey mouses and Plutos from there. I also have one small tiger in my home and it always reminds me of my trip to Disney Land...

I don't usually enjoy eating junk food, but in Hard Rock Cafe this junk food was an experience. Those tasty french fries and huge hamburgers were so delicious! And also that atmosphere was magnificent...but it might result from my age, because I was 16 years old and at the first time travelling alone.

HS from Finland wrote about Disney Land one year, 2 months ago

Actually, this is EuroDisney, but anyway. I have been there twice and I suggest you should take 2 days that you can see everything and don´t have to hurry. Both times gave me so much fun. I can say that there is the world´s best ghost train! I haven´t seen anything like that anywhere. I liked those fun machines but also different shows, like parades. There are lots of shops where you can buy Disney items, you name it. Every evening ends up to the fireworks.
