items Paris has a really big reputation and is an incredibly diverse city. There are a thousand places with recommendations, and here are my humble offerings to consider based on my trips to this amazing city.
I mean, look at this place! This palace is of incredible historical significance and also just absolutely exquisite and a marvel to see and be in. I have been here several times and every time is just as incredible.
Palace of Versailles
This is a top rated tour for a reason. Absolutely brilliant guide. If you haven't been before, it is really worth seeing this beautiful city from such an iconic viewpoint.
Eiffel Tower Summit/Second Floor Access
Mont Saint-Michel is a stunning medieval abbey perched atop a rocky islet surrounded by the sea, and access is cut off (except by boat!) when tides reach a certain height. It's like a dream.
Mont Saint-Michel Day Trip
If you like art, this tour is a must do. Monet's garden is incredible and it's like being in his paintings. Visiting the last address of Van Gogh and visiting places he painted is equally remarkable and again makes you feel a different level of conne...
Visit Monet's Harden in Giverny and Van Gogh's Room in Auvers
The Champagne region is beautiful and not that far from Paris. You can get to the area by public transport but I found that a tour does really helped me get the most out of the day. Touring a Champagne winery is a one of kind experience.🥂

Louvre Museum Guided Tour
If you are walking the tightrope of budget and unique accommodation, for my money the Hôtel Monsieur Aristide is a fabulous middle ground.
Nestled in one of the cobblestone streets of Butte Montmartre, this 19th-century building features rooms surro...
Stay at the Hotel Monsieur Aristide
This is one of the most famous ballet companies in the world and you will see why. Definitely one to book in advance as it does sell out!
Watch the Paris Ballet
The setting of the Phantom of the Opera is just as atmospheric as the novel (and/or musical!) and well worth a visit. This tour will give you private access with your group and an overview of the history and cultural significance. If you have time, a...
Opera Garnier Private Tour- Setting of the Phantom of the Opera
This is not for everyone, but the catacombs underneath Paris with its millions of bones is quite something. I was lucky enough to go on this guided tour with extra access to some areas not available on the general admission ticket. Definitely memorab...
Paris Catacombs
For a change of pace, Disneyland is a great option and perfect for your inner child, and/or actual child. I went on a day it snowed which was a very specific but also great experience!
Disneyland Paris
La Tour d'Argent is a heavy weight in the capital's culinary heritage. It boasts 300,000 wine bottles, iconic dishes, exquisite views of the city's major monuments, and is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. It is expensive so keep that in mind!
Celebrate a Special Occasion with a Dinner at La Tour d'Argent
A meal at a high end restaurant is always lovely, but unless you are made of money, you will also be looking for good value, more affordable options. This is a solid choice for a good meal and a great night without breaking the bank.
