Planning Tips

📆 Best Time To Visit

The best time to visit Paris is during spring (April-May) or fall (September-October) when temperatures are mild and tourist crowds are moderate. Summer brings larger crowds and higher prices, while winter offers festive charm with holiday decorations and Christmas markets.

💰 Average Daily Budget

A couple can expect to spend around €200-250/day (2025), including mid-range hotel accommodation, meals, public transportation, and cultural attractions. This can vary significantly depending on accommodation choices and dining preferences.

🍽️ Must-Try Foods

Sample Parisian classics like croissants, baguettes, and macarons from local boulangeries and pâtisseries. Don't miss traditional dishes like coq au vin, beef bourguignon, croque monsieur, and authentic French onion soup. Save room for classic desserts like crème brûlée and éclair.

🍻 Local Drinks

France is renowned for its wine culture - try local wines from various regions including Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Champagne. Visit traditional cafés for espresso and café au lait, and don't miss the opportunity to enjoy an aperitif like Kir Royale or Pastis before dinner.

📸 Must-See Views

Explore iconic landmarks like the Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museum, and Notre-Dame Cathedral. Wander through charming neighborhoods like Montmartre and Le Marais, cruise along the Seine River, and visit the Palace of Versailles. Don't miss the famous gardens of Luxembourg and Tuileries.
