A friend of mine and I booked our flights to Paris for March. A gift to myself for going through a rough last half of 2023 due to an unexpected divorce. I am beyond excited to just be in the presence of such history and beauty. I'm sure I will be overwhelmed to tears. I'm currently trying to plan all our activities and accommodations.
Sorry for your divorce. This said, Paris will hopefully be a fantastic discovery for you!
We're in paris March 8th till the 11th , looking for fun
Excellent, a very comprehensive list of what to see and do!
I would add seeing; the Conciergerie, Musée Carnavalet, Musée Rodin, and one of the five or six cabaret shows.
But after 30 yrs of visiting Paris, for me, it's all about enjoying long rich lunches in the bistros and cafés, leisurely elegant dinners, nights in old world bars and jazz clubs, and everything gastronomic.
Thanks for sharing!
Gastronomy: as we say in France, English people eat to live, French people live to eat!
Thank you very much for the video, it was my first time to see the interior of the Eiffel Tower!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love dining at Au Bretzel. One of my favorite places for lunch. Thank you for another magical video!
Thanks.
I love Alsatian food too!

🎉 Visiting Paris in autumn! Your video gave us a general idea of the different neighborhoods to explore to make our visit memorable. Your hard work in producing this video is much appreciated. Merci❤❤
My great pleasure 🙏🙏🙏
This was helpful for an upcoming trip, thanks!
Glad it could help!
Thank you so much for these recommendations. Your videos are really getting better!! I’ve been following for some time and it really has amazed me how good they are becoming. Greetings!! (And I mean this in the kindest way. It’s nice to see the growth)
You are so welcome!
It's good to know that we're progressing!
Thank you. My husband and I will be going for 4 days in April.
Hope you enjoy it!
Should you need any information, feel free to ask...
My friend is here looking at this video. Her first comment was Wow! He has good music.
Thank her for me, please.
It takes me quite some time to select the music.
The food is a real draw for me😋
Then you shouldn't be disappointed in Paris!
Awesome video! Arriving on November 12, can't wait to be there!
Hope you have the time of your life!
Another wonderful video, full of lots of relevant and valuable information, and done in your authentic style, it really enhances the experience. Keep up the fantastic work.
Thank you so much!
I love reading your great comments: they are so rewarding!
@@paristoptips - Oh you are very welcome. I love recommending your channel to people interested in coming to Paris, because they can get an honest appraisal of the city. A lot of content creators tend to over glamorize the city they are trying to promote, and travellers don't like that. We like Honesty. You keep it simple and honest and every person who wants to get the best experience when visiting Paris, should watch your videos. I can't recommend them enough.
🤗
Cok gùzel bir górsel olmus👍❤️❤️
Very beatifuull👏👏💐🌷❣️♥️🌷❤️
Thank you
All of these sound nice, but one of my favorites that I still remember quite vividly was a Paris cafe breakfast. Between our hotel and metro stop stumbled onto a cafe and since we would be getting to the Orsay at least 30 minutes before opening so what the heck we stopped. For 8.50 Euro (in 2019 Euros) got a croissant, pain au chocolate, tartine with butter and jam, small and very tasty orange juice, and pot of tea. It was very enjoyable and a great way to start the day. Don't remember the cafe name, it was just one we stumbled upon, but will never forget the experience.
Sounds great!
Superb video!👌👍🗼...as always!...planning my next visit to see the remaining attractions that I didn't manage to see!💜💚💙🙏...the Seine river cruise will Always be cherished in my heart!🥰
Brilliant!
Hello. Is it easy to get around as an English only speaker?
Great video!!! Will spend the day looking at your other postings. One quick question - I've been to Paris several times but have never been able to find the entrance to the underground passage that will let you access the Arc d' Triomphe. Could you please tell he how to do this?
Thanks for the comment!
Both on the Champs-Elysées and on the Avenue de la Grande Armée, on the other side of the Arc de Triomphe, the metro / RER entrance also lead to the middle of the place and to the underground service desk where you can purchase your ticket.
trés bien❤
Merci🙏
Thanks for these well done videos. Will be in Paris four days in September. Would like to see an 11eme, rue Oberkamf, Buttes de Chaumont, canal st martin video.
You should have a video on this before your coming to Paris
Another nice video. Sadly on my recent trip the Eiffel tower was sold out. But I really enjoyed the Luxembourg gardens.
Sorry to hear that!
Make sure to reserve long in advance for your next trip to Paris...
Try Montparnasse tower easy Quick and AT the top great view of Paris
Je ne compte plus le nombre de fois que j ai visité Paris, et je ne me lasse jamais. Je n y viens d ailleurs plus pour visiter les musées ou les sites historiques, que je connais depuis le temps, mais juste pour ressentir l atmosphère: parcs, rues, restaurants, achats divers. Une des plus belles villes du monde.
Absolument... mais qui part en sucette avec la municipalité actuelle...
Great editing with perfect music to accompany your wonderful narration. Thank you for this! I will arrive for Christmas starting December 21st. Can you suggest a church or cathedral I can get into for Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve or a Mass on Christmas day? I am saving this video as a a reference for my visit. Again, thank you.
There will be quite a few churches for that. Where will you be staying?
! I will be at Louvre Saint Honoré hotel, rue Saint Honoré... I appreciate this, thank you!@@paristoptips
@@user-cj9zx1me7b Most churches in Paris celebrate Christmas masses, but I would recommend, close to your hotel the beautiful church of Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois.
Since the fire of Notre Dame, St Germain l'Auxerrois has been responsible for most of the cathedral's services.
Likewise, during the time of ND's work, the church is the repository of Christ's Holy crown of thorns; currently, it is presented to the faithful during the Friday service at 3 p.m.
You are a gem!! Many thanks for this! I just looked up Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois and that is where I will go for Christmas Mass. I have made so many notes from your wonderful videos. I want everyone to subscribe...even if they are not planning a trip,... your videos are lovely to look at, great music, informative, and many times just so relaxing to watch. Again, thank you!@@paristoptips
🙏🙏🙏 You're welcome!
Formidable!
Merci !🙏🙏🙏🙏
Nice video, would you suggest to buy the paris pass to visit the attraction for a 3-4 days stay?
It really depneds on what yu want to do. I'd suggest first the Paris Museum Pass, but get a look at this video, it should definitely help: ua-cam.com/video/pws5brGM4c4/v-deo.html
I love Paris, we been there 3 times but not enough for me.
Paris will love seeing you one more time 🙂
I love Paris from the bottom of my Heart.. come check more clips and beautiful music in our Channel.. one love ❤
👍
Bonjour.
Tip 1: Café Le Nemours. It was one of the memorable locations in the famous French film "The Intouchables".
Tip 2: Many turn up their noses and reject climbing the tower, but it is a moment that holds unique symbolism.
Tip 4: In the film "Francofonia", director Aleksandr Sokurov said: "Who would want France without the Louvre? Or Russia without the Hermitage? What would become of us without the museum? Gradually, museums appropriate what is around them. They can also hide humanity's greatest strength and its most incredible secrets."
Tip 6: Ah, the Seine.... Many tourists are not familiar with the splendor of a innocent cruise trip on the Seine.... I would whisper on each and every ear.... Take the boat, take the boat.
Tip 9: While admiring your footage of the Sainte Chapelle I recall the film "Diplomatie", the story of a Swedish diplomat who convinces a nazi general not to destroy Paris.
Tip 10: It is rather curious how the Champs-Élysées avenue is some sort of a small hill and it is a little bit of an extra exercise to climb it up from the Place de la Concorde towards the Arc de Triomphe: something that the maps won't tell you.
Thanks for all the information. It is certainly useful...
Thanks
My pleasure 🙏
can you suggest me a neighborhood where I can find budget stay options along with my husband in Paris?
What would be your budget per night?
@@paristoptips I am from India.. so I think Rs.3-4K i.e 33-45 Euros per night
It's going to be very difficult to find a room at these prices. Only a dormitory in a hostel, maybe.
My culinary Choice :
1) Indian cuisine
2) Italian cuisine
3) Swiss
To everyone its own taste😂
Mine would be French, Thai and Italian
It will be of great help to us if you please suggest some reliable travel agents who operate from Paris
As said earlier, I don't know any. Sorry...
J'ai très peur des punaises de lit. J'allais venir à Paris dans 1 mois, dois-je envisager d'annuler ?
Quelle coïncidence, je suis en train de faire une vidéo sur le sujet des punaises de lit. La situation actuelle est très largement exagérée, bâtie sur quelques cas montés extrêmes.
Oui, il y a des punaises de lit à Paris... comme à Londres ou à New-York.
S'il y en a plus aujourd'hui qu'il y a 30 ans, il n'y en a pas plus que l'année dernière, quand personne n'en parlait.
nice! but Lafayette is NOT on les grands Boulevards
Galeries Lafayette is on Boulevard Haussmann, which is one of what we call today in Paris, the "Grands Boulevards". It may not have been part of the original Grands Boulevards, but after being created in the 19th century, it is alaways considered by Parisians (which I am) as one of the Grands Boulevards. As you can see in Wikipedia: "However, Parisian habit also includes Boulevard Haussmann, with its department stores Printemps and Galeries Lafayette, among the quintessential Grands Boulevards."
THx!
I Love Your vlogs. You have such a Sweet Voice and Tender Presentation
Your english is Awful tho :-) :-)
I do my best 😁
I am from India. Myself and my wife would like to visit Paris and other places in France. Would you please suggest me some reliable and dependable travel agents in Paris who can organise the tour for us. We are both elderly people in our late sixties. Please reply
Unfortunately, I have no relation whatsoever with travel agents, so I can't help you.
