Eiffel Tower is breathtaking even to see it on the ground but as you go up it gets more and more exciting, when you get to the 3rd floor (300m) it's unbelievable. The Arc de Triomphe (Arc of Triumph) is also very cool. The view from the top is very cool. Of course Louvre Museum with Mona Lisa in it is worth taking a look. I know these are the cliche places to visit but they are that for a reason and they are pertty awesome.
One other thing I would advise - Take the metro to St. Denis to see the Cathedral Basilica of St. Denis. It is the first gothic church ever built. It is a truly amazing place. It's also the Necropolis of French Royalty. It's built over the first church there, built around 450. You can see the ancient tombs down there, and throughout the church. Marie Antoinette is there, Catherine de Medici. Amazing. The church is big, and nearly 1000 years old. DON'T miss it !!
I missed that. What fighting? I'm American, and I love Paris. In fact, I think it is one of if not THE greatest treasures on the planet. As for August, keep in mind, the city empties out as people take long vacations then. And it can be hot. Not much air conditioning either.
AMAZING CITY...I WENT IN MY WINTER(IN BRAZIL) VACATIONS 2009......I WENT IN ROME ,PISA,TORINO,CHAMONIX AND PARIS...15 AMAZING DAYS......IN SEPTEMBER......"ENCHANTÉ"...FROM BRAZIL
Paris is really gorgeous! There is never nothing to do! and its for both families and couples which is great! I like it so much I'm ending all my sentences in exclamation marks!
I've read these reviews and can't see how it turned into a debate in which country is better. The video was on the best sites in Paris, a wonderful and breathtaking city. The world has many beautiful cities, yes even the U.S. but this isn't something that any generation can take pride in, infact it's despite the destruction and damage we have done as the HUMAN race. I applaud this video because it shows the international love one many has for a city that is not his own. That's awesome!
Paris is fabulous! I had a wonderful time walking around the city, visiting museums; it was an amazing experience. Hint: As an american you will get a much better reception from the french if you at least try to speak french. Learning a few phases will make all the difference. I found the people to be pleasant, & helpful as well as charming.
I've been to Paris last year, was also single...didn't matter to me...the city is amazing and you'll enjoy it for sure. Sure, a company would be a plus, but not a must.
Not all Americans are "ugly" and not all Parisians are "snooty." Let's stop generalizing and start appreciating each for what we are. We are unique human beings who all come with our own troubles and faults as well as our beauty and humanity. I love Paris and I found most Parisians to be simply charming and friendly. I hope I left the same impression on them.
i from france,corsica and have been to paris 7 TIMES so listen to me. 1.blend in with the crowd by wearing usually black. 2.if you are a rural person, then paris is not your cup of tea 3.in paris british people will say french peoples teeth are bad when the truth is that france has 5 place in teeth clearing organizations. 4.paris is the best place for bread,tea,wine,coffee,chocolate,grapes,and cheese. 5-10.be social and learn its cultures by speaking french and being christian.july 14 indpt
Nicely done. Good tips for rue Mouffetard & rue Pot de Fer in the 5th for inexpensive places to eat & also to drink (there you can find some of the least expensive tourist menus and pints in Paris).
Wonderful video, thank you! The only negative point is that the music in the background could be a little lower, I missed a few lines because of it. Congratulations from Brazil!
I am sorry you feel that way. Most American are warm hearted and very giving people. I am from the south were where as a general rule manners are taught. I am not disrespectful of your culture. I find it interesting. I am not rude to anyone, I walk slow because I am short,I buy from smaller shops when I can and no the world does not revolves me or anyone else for that matter and I do hate our politics also. We are a culture that accepts all cultures. How many countries do that ?
The Pompidou museum isn't free on the first sunday of the month (and i'll avoid the Louvre on that day because it's really overcrowded), better do a serie of smaller second-rank museum on that day and keep the Louvre for a normal paying day during the week, much better experience and probably cheaper overall. (First sunday at Orsay is doable, but better going by the middle-end of afternoon, then it will be free and nearly empty)
@Empoli5 - So many people can agree with you !! I was in Roma last summer and I cannot wait to come back !!! Im so inlove with Roma. Im coming on July again and discover more of this very beautiful city :) Im so addicted to its history !!
I thought Paris was a pretty place to visit. But we had to stand in a queue for nearly three hours waiting to buy tickets to go up the Eiffel Tower! I wish we could buy them online in advance. The waiting in the queue was much longer than standing in a queue waiting to get on a ride in Disneyland Paris.
@MinuteXify ive been to both and their both beautiful in different ways. I live really close to nyc and yes it is crowded but the atmosphere is so great cause its a financial capital. And paris is not as quiet as you may think it is-trust me it's really busy too and there is still a ton of people there.
paris looks so much more beautiful than nyc though. it is less people and less crowded. ncy is just filled with people and streets and skyscrappers. id rather go to a more quiet and beautiful place like paris!! :))
@gladevil Thank you. I've just seen the official site and noticed that they have introduced the electronic ticket. This must have been very recent. They didn't have this when we last visited Paris.
Terrible prononciation, so hard for many to follow, but good advice about the carnets! I have lived in Paris for 17 years and do two YT channels and Dailymotion to help people enjoy this fascinating city, which is quite overwhelming! Many of the city's museums are always free.
Seems like a beautiful city. I am going to bring my DSLR camera. I am a photo buff, so I like to take a lot of photos. I would like to bring my laptop in my backpack. Do you think that is a good idea?
Just try to enjoy the beauty of the city. I was there. I was polite to them and vice versa. When your in their country, you should try to be polite to them, and they do remember what our country did for them, and our people who died to help them. just check out what it says at the Arc de Triomph.
@mHeartJC : Please could you elaborate as to where all you went and what was the mode of transport . I too have a time crunch in Paris ... only 1 and a half day ... Thanxx
I went to Paris this past July. I have a video on my channel if anyone wants to see it but I really enjoyed this video! Would have loved to watch this BEFORE I went :)
one quick correction, le marais is the jewish quarter, with the best falafels in the world. and the best boutique shops. The gay part of Paris is between le marais and the latin quarter
I'm planning a trip to Paris next year. I've been trying to learn how to speak French, but of course it takes a lot of effort and practice. I'm worried about ordering in restaurants for two reasons: 1. I'm a vegetarian, and don't if there will be many food options abroad without meat. 2. I've heard the French can be rude/impatient when you're ordering because you're slower to read the menus/ask questions/know what you want. Does anyone have any insight on this?
Well my grandpa lives in France ( so we visit a lot there ) and there's plenty of salads, you just have to pick the right restaurants, and the French aren't rude ( the italians are much more nice ) they just have their moments a bit more frequently if you know what I mean. I hope that helps.
I agree, american are often really nice. it's a nice welcoming country to, sometimes really weird to us but people and the service industry have this tradition of friendliness that makes it easier for a tourist, than in Paris . It seems like both french and american people have to deal with unfair stereotypes it spoils their relationships.In Paris you will have encounters with narrow minded people like everywhere else, but they'll be narrow minded in a french way, witch make it... surprising
My school is making me do this for hw.

Paris is really the most visited place in the world. I hope I can visit here soon
i would prefer Paris over London anyday.
Paris is really gorgeous! There is never nothing to do! and its for both families and couples which is great! I like it so much I'm ending all my sentences in exclamation marks!
Paris is Greatful on the world.May I want to visit this country"
Paris is beautiful French are laid back and modern and food mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

I loved Paris an can not wait to return.
why this loud sound/music?
Its from the Trocadero, in the 16th district. Simply take a subway that stops at the Trocadero stop and you can't miss it.
Wow americans and french people fightin here for no reason. Paris seems lovely i hope i can go there in august.

OMG the way he says louve! I honestly can't take him seriously
1: Don't dress like a tourist
2: Don't assume everyone speaks English
3: You are a guest in someone else's country, show some respect
1. why? illegal?
2. french as well.
3. quest in country? show some respect :)
SIMON Gill hhhj
my dream PARIS
that tower looks incredible
I love France from North to South, amazing Monaco and Canne also Nice what a lovely holiday, food is amazing

For tourists who use Transilien transportation; Mobilis day pass single ticket is less expensive than single travel one.

paris ✌
Awesome video! Awesome tips, even a Parisian like myself learned something new...
Nicely done. Good tips for rue Mouffetard & rue Pot de Fer in the 5th for inexpensive places to eat & also to drink (there you can find some of the least expensive tourist menus and pints in Paris).

I love Paris. There is so much to to there. Thanks for the list of things. It has given me some ideas for my next trip.
Good Video!
For me the best option to move in paris was on walk or by train.
The metro in paris is easy to use.
I am sorry you feel that way. Most American are warm hearted and very giving people. I am from the south were where as a general rule manners are taught. I am not disrespectful of your culture.

Thanks, I found this very useful. I will be taking my family there for the first time in August. We often travel to Hungary.
This song, its right on the tip of my tongue but I just can't remember what it is
sounds like Utada.

What is the name of the song playing in the background?
paris looks so much more beautiful than nyc though. it is less people and less crowded.
ncy is just filled with people and streets and skyscrappers.
id rather go to a more quiet and beautiful place like paris!! :))
What about the underground catacombs
For a weeks stay travel I got a Navigo weekly ticket €27 use it everywhere in Paris
Very good introduction to Paris! Well done!!
Can't wait 'til August!! Paris, wait for me :-D
@gladevil Thank you. I've just seen the official site and noticed that they have introduced the electronic ticket. This must have been very recent. They didn't have this when we last visited Paris.
are you talking about that place that gives you that beauty view of eiffel tower. How do I get there without subway if I'm beside the eiffel tower?
im going there next year with my highschool class

His pronunciation of the French words killed me just a little inside
Great tours, but the music volume should be a bit lower.
Lol I love how he butchers all of the french words
Hi frn
I love his accent
When he says 3rd it sounds like turd aha
Aidan Blackmore If I had a euro for every time somebody says that...
HEHEHEHEHEHEHE, TURD, THAT'S TOTALLY SO FUNNY POOP YESSSS get over yourself pal
Je suis toujours pour une discussion. Go for it.
So, which would you say is the most famous Paris neighbourhood? Would love to know : )
I went to Paris this past July. I have a video on my channel if anyone wants to see it but I really enjoyed this video! Would have loved to watch this BEFORE I went :)

Watch some UA-cam vids of the old Quebec city and you'll see a bit of England,a bit of France.
I always wanted to go to paris i hear its beautiful ¥_ ¥

Thanks for the tips!
Thanks for all the good information great insights on the city love it!!
one quick correction, le marais is the jewish quarter, with the best falafels in the world. and the best boutique shops. The gay part of Paris is between le marais and the latin quarter
Interesting video
@MsDDiddy I'm sorrry, my mistake, my words were addressed to another member . Greetings from Europe :))
@MinuteXify not at all quiet, and pretty smelly and dirty. but its true, the streets are not dense with people. paris however is a pretty small city.
i live in paris i would like to add : lots of museums in Paris (aroudnt 80%) are free for -25 years old ;)
I'll be there!...
excellent
@sunshinemags you can buy them online!!!
Please, what is the music ? ( sweet ! )
