3 mistakes not to make in Paris ✨ #paris #travel #traveltips

Recommendation: if you can, consider going in December instead of July-august (aka the touristy season). Although there are still a lot of tourists (it’s Paris after all), and the weather is pretty chilly, its just so magical! The Christmas markets, the festivity, the french onion soup, the thick hot chocolate!! It’s just so beautiful (also slightly less packed and not boiling hot).

I took the train to/from the airport several times and now I always take Uber-well worth the extra money. The station and trains are busy and can be difficult to negotiate with luggage. There are a lot of stairs, it's crowded, and ppl can be pushy-no one is going to make room for you.

My class is going on a trip to Paris! I wanna save money as much as I can as it is already expensive just to go so thank you!

59 Rivoli is such a big reccomendation! I was there two months ago and its so cool to see if you're into art

I just got back. It was wonderful. Im going back in the spring to France and Switzerland

€39 for an Uber to the airport seems pretty reasonable to me.

my tip is if you are from the uk go in half term.a lot of countries don’t have half term so it will be much less busy

Agree mostly with nb 2. Take à taxi or uber to and from thé airport. Yes transportation is cheaper. With luggage and stations under work in the summer and our numerous stairs....taxi is better and more confortable for you and the others and less stressful. Use transportation while visiting. Add this to your budget if you can afford it. Tap vs bottle water, this is à personal préférence. Yes it is cheaper not always good in taste or cold enough. Choose dessert or a snack if you have to make à choice 😅.

I'm sorry i'm parisian and when i travel i take the uber...i'm not dealing with the additional stress of public transportation with luggage

As a Parisian to all the people saying don’t go there you really don’t know what you re missing. You can say it’s trashy but I’ve traveled a lot and never seen a clean capital 😂 I prefer to see tourists that love my city than people like you who trash talk about it 😘

Paris is the one place I really want to go😢

In my experience you should just take the trains its like 2 Eurostar per person and gives you travel all around Paris for uptown 90 minutes

Not me taking notes as if I have the money to go to Paris.😂

One nice thing about being over 40 is that the cost is second, luxury is first. I take a private car to my hotel. I am spending lots of money, I don't want to get lost getting to my first stop which is usually the hotel.

There are a lot of paid good attractions that you SHOULD go to before consider skimping on free ones like that 😂 if you need to save some money, consider eating from bakeries/supermarches and skipping restaurants or drinking at restaurants here and there imo.

[sammychem]

A lot of restaurants don't serve tap water and force you to buy bottled water in Europe.

If you have big bags though uber is your best bet, my family and i struggled to get the bags from the train to the subway while on the way to our hotel. Going back down was not an option any of us wanted to take.

If I want to drink tap water, I stay at home. 😂
