Things to do in Paris

The centre of Paris is where you can find the majority of its most famous landmarks, and you will discover many of these by wandering around and exploring at your leisure. Alternatively, you could opt for a bus or boat tour which will show you all of the sights with less walking, which may be preferable if you only have a limited amount of time in the city.

No trip to Paris is complete without seeing the Eiffel Tower, which is quite possibly one of the most recognisable structures in the world. One of our top things to do in Paris is to stand at its base and admire it from the ground, or pay to go up the tower which will give you the opportunity to see the whole of Paris. You could even choose to eat in one of the Eiffel Tower restaurants if you are looking for a meal with a view!

Other sites that are certainly worth visiting include the Arc de Triomphe and Notre-Dame Cathedral. You will find the Arc at the end of the Champs-Élysées and can enjoy an impressive view of this famous and beautiful avenue from the top. A fascinating example of Gothic architecture, Notre-Dame Cathedral also offers a fantastic view from the top of its towers and you are sure to love the famous gargoyles that form part of its design.

For those searching for a bit of culture, the Louvre is the place to be. Named as the most visited museum in the world, this striking landmark is home to the Mona Lisa and thousands of other classic and modern pieces that are sure to keep you occupied for many hours.
