After using the metro and those stairs, I took the advice of my hotel staffer and started taking the bus. I liked being above ground and seeing the city!! Super! Merci!
We just got back!!! If your walking make sure you have the feet for it!! LOL With using the Metro we were doing over 15K steps on our fitbits per day! didn't gain a pound which was great! The bikes and scooters, I think you need to know the city pretty good because google maps can take a while to register your position, even walking so you go in the wrong direction a lot and most streets are like 5-6 point intersections unlike the USA where it's easy to pick a direction we only have 4.. Getting lost can be fun also because everything in Paris is interesting!!! Ya can't lose.. A suggestion for another video Les Frenchies Hotels with balconies you can sit on!! We stayed in the Jewish/gay quarter but the balconie was useless.. Next trip we want a balcony we can just sit on for hours... Great video Thank you!
This channel is sooo very helpful 👍👍😘 me and my friends have been planning our trip to paris for a few months now and your vlog helped us tidying our itineraries.. Hope you also cover other big cities in france
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. Up, close n personal by walking in d city is indeed d best, u wouldn't miss any spot that u like by taking your time to enjoy d city.
On foot is my favorite way to see Paris, but I just signed up for a motorcycle sidecar tour. Inspired by an article in Washington Post today, I decided not to dither and reserved the afternoon slot on what will be my last day in Paris next month. Something to be excited about as my visit winds down.
I went to Paris when trains striked, I didn't know this in advance so there were limited services and had to get an Uber from Stade de France to my hotel when going from the airport and had to walk everywhere. At least I got a lot of steps in but my feet were very tired and definitely will have to come back and relax a bit more to appreciate the beautiful city.
Another great video, love how you mention if people have mobility issues, no one ever thinks of, became of health issues at the moment i would have to use taxis, as walking far is an no no
Another great informative video, we love the metro, I'm a train nerd. We want to try the scooters as obe day walking, your feet feel like they're falling off 😅
I've watched alot of videos to prepare for my first trip to Paris and your playlist has been the MOST valuable. Thank you! Has your download materials been updated since covid?
Just got the 2022 Paris guide and it’s Great.It is so helpful in planning our trip in October.Keep up the great videos ,we enjoy them and are very informative.
I always rent a Lime bike when in Paris. I tried the scooter once, but didn't enjoy it as much. Funny story, after visiting someone at the Intercontinental Le Grande one night, we wanted to take the long way back to our hotel, with a stop in Montmartre, but we got outside the geofencing area for the scooter and ended up pushing the darn things for over a kilometer. Never again.
Thanks for the great content. I am travelling to Paris soon and your videos are helping me plan for trip!! 🙂 Between G7 and Uber, which one do you prefer? Especially for CDG to City centre commute.
Went to Paris for 1st time this august . I couldn’t for the life of me hack the metro , but I managed to get around on the buses using Citymapper. I did jump on the rer to Disneyland and Versailles. I also jumped on 86 and 69 as well lol I plan to visit Paris again for 2nd time in 2023 for a week ,get my navigo card , and hopefully I will understand the metro . I rented a scooter 🛴, it was amazing 🤩 love it . You said you can buy tickets on the bus, but from what I saw you needed to have a navigo card , ticket would print the ticket, once you tap the reader . So if I jump on another bus , I wouldn’t need to tap the card but push my paper ticket in the reader If you guys could do a video , on taping the navigo on the bus , I know I’ve been to Paris , should understand this , lol I really went to do something on the Seine river , I regret not doing that
I will be in France in October to visit my brother and his family and I have been watching your videos to create a list of spots to try out, I also used to be fluent in French since it is my second language, hopefully I can find my words. You guys are also adorable to watch, thanks for sharing your moments with us.
Thanks to your vlog on the Metro my friends and I were able to make it back to our hotel after we missed the meet up time with tour guide. It was so easy and we got to experience Paris in a different way than most on the tour.
@@LesFrenchiesTravel That's great to know. I live in tropical Florida and had to buy a new wardrobe for Edinburgh, London and Paris. It would be awful if that was a a waste of money. And I'm so looking forward to cool weather. 89 degrees here today.
My favorite way is bus. You can enjoy scenery and it saves you from walking a lot of stairs like in the metro. But the bus service is often very unreliable on weekends. The service can be terminated any time without prior warning...or some bus stops will be not in service. It can be very frustrating.
Hi guys! Thank you for another great video! My daughter is 5, do you think we’ll have a hard time if we were to call a taxi or an Uber if we don’t have a booster seat?
even with a weeklong Navigo decouverte, I walked 168000-ish steps during my full week there! I will definitely investigate the electric scooters next time, and stay in a hotel with an elevator (7th floor, 18 steps in between each is not fun at the end of a long day)!
Love your videos! Great production value and information presented in a concise and cheerful manner. Can you do a “chicken/poultry” focused bistro/restaurant. Where to go to find great poulet chasseur, poulet au fromage ,coq au vin, poulet frittes, etc.
@@LesFrenchiesTravel thanks! I’m sure you have a few subscribers who don’t eat pork or red meet who would appreciate an overview of chicken/poultry offerings at various bistros.
I am visiting paris with my 16 year old daughter this week. We are thinking of taking a siene evening 1 hour cruise. Is there a tour you can recommend? The champagne cruise seemed highly rated but I wasn’t sure if this was more for couples.
Hello, for the bus in Paris, is it only tapping in using the Navigo card once boarded or it requires you to tap out again once exiting the bus? thanks!
On the subject of Uber, I often find the driver will add extras to to bill like waiting or pet fee, even when they don't apply, but I always check and if they do bill be extras, I get Uber to remove the charge. Also, they try to stick you for a luggage fee but only want cash payment. I always report those Uber drivers.
The fact that taxi drivers are sketchy from airports and train stations is a worldwide issue. In the former Soviet Union, you ALWAYS arrange for a car/driver from your hotel or your company from airports and trains stations.
I broke my ankle in May and I am up walking now I’ve been walking for almost 4 weeks but I’m slow and I limp and it gets sore if I go too far so we are coming to Paris on 15 September my sister planned on doing more buses and Uber‘s in the subway than what we had originally planned but my question is are the subways accessible for me meaning do they have escalators because a lot of steps can sometimes be a problem or what would your advice be
Bonjour. Any chance you can cover La Vallee Village, the outlet shops in Paris? How do you get their on public transport from Paris? Is this the only outlet shopping in Paris? Merci. Ann
Hello my friend ..ur way of explaination is simply superb ,.My Love to you both, when ever you people visit Bangalore india do please visit my home..it’s my honour to offer some traditional Indian cuisine..
I want to try at least one bus ride but I'm scared I'll get an unhelpful driver,in french,and I won't know the right way to pay. Can I use one of the metro tickets if it's the same price.
You might warn folks about Taxis and Ubers during rush hours can get stuck in Paris's really horrible traffic. Also Metro is great but its underground and you only see the metro...
Much appreciated your video, but I found Paris was stuck in time far as technology and it 19 century building infrastructure, I expect it to be more modern, it felt outdated, my opinion as far as the metro system easy to navigate but to outdated compared to other countries, I also found Paris to be poor I learned that the minimum wage is $1,110 a month and the government does not let you have a second job because you will be taxed an extra 25% on that income. As you can see when I travel not only i enjoy my vacation i also socialize with the local and gather Intel to learn how things work. In conclusion it's a once and a lifetime experience but no repeat for me. Thks
Bonjour. Lequel d'entre vous est né à Paris? Monsieur ou Madame ? Parce que je ne comprends vraiment pas comment vous pouvez recommander de louer un vélo ou une patinette sans parler de sécurité et dire que le casque est plus que recommandé. Je vois des inepties de ces deux populations à la pelle...

I’ll be in Paris for the day for my first time on Friday! Your videos helped planned my day. Merci!!!
I used the Metro in Paris last year and it´s so easy to figure out the routes, unlike in Münich which is complex and confusing.
Me and my husband are in Paris right now and can’t wait to do a picnic in front of the Eiffel Tower.
We love the using the Metro or RER, very easy to navigate and cheap w/ the Navigo card.

I know I’m looking for a hotel with a real balcony right now and they are few are far in between in the areas I want .
Paris here we come on Sept 5,2022💫💫💫💫💫
Can we just hire you two? You 2 are great.
Thanks for the tip on the G7 app. That will be a big help when we go to Paris in a few weeks.
you must try the line 6 of the métro, it's outside and the view is superb...
salut et fraternité !

Any links for the scooters? Do we need reservation?
Hello, for the bus in Paris, is it only tapping in using the Navigo card once boarded or it requires you to tap out again once exiting the bus? thanks!
Only tap when you get on the bus.
