Where to stay
A central neighbourhood near the metro
Useful for a short visit, but room size and station access matter as much as the district name. Check lift access in older buildings.
A quieter, well-connected area
Can offer a better night's sleep and a different evening atmosphere. Compare actual routes to your booked attractions before choosing on price.
Getting around
Metro, RER, buses and trams serve different journeys. Use the official planner and check airport-ticket arrangements separately. Walking is useful within a district, but crossing the whole city repeatedly can wear you out.
A flexible itinerary
Use these three days as a starting point. Add arrival, departure or excursion days to fit your stay.
River views and one landmark
Choose your Eiffel Tower option, then leave time for the nearby riverbanks and a relaxed meal. A boat trip is optional, not essential for seeing the Seine. Keep any evening reservation within a sensible journey.
An art day
Make the museum you most want the morning's focus. Take a break afterwards, then explore nearby gardens or streets. Bookings at another major collection are better left for a different day if you want to enjoy the first one.
The hill and a neighbourhood day
Visit Montmartre at a comfortable pace, checking steps and mobility needs. Use another day for the Marais, a smaller museum or a canal walk. Versailles is a separate excursion that works better with additional time.
Food and local stops
A bakery breakfast and a neighbourhood bistro lunch can be more satisfying than eating beside every landmark. Check menus and reservation needs for a special dinner.
Before you book
Check museum closure days and book key visits through official channels. A pass is only useful if its inclusions and reservation rules fit your actual itinerary.
