My Favorite Things To Do in 📍Paris

Paris is my favorite city to visit and there are so many things to do, especially in the summer so here are my personal recommendations.

🥂Happy Hour or Dinner at an Outdoor Restaurant

The French love to sit outside and eat over a 2-3 hour meal and I think it’s the perfect way to take in the city, especially if you have a great view.

🏰 Castle or Museum Visit

Paris has so much unique history to share with the world and I love seeing how grand the castles are. My favorite is the Castle of Versailles (not pictured). It is 30 mins outside of the city but it’s worth the trek.

🧺 Picnic at the Eiffel Tower

The Eiffel Tower is a great way to wind down at the end of the night, especially because it is lit for the first 10 mins of every hour starting at 10PM. Vendors sell wine and mini charcueterie boards and it is one of my favorite things go do in the summer evenings.

Save this post for your trip to Paris!

... Read moreParis is a beautiful city filled with culture, history, and unique experiences that bring joy to every visitor. When planning your trip, consider taking a leisurely stroll along the Seine, where breathtaking views of landmarks like Notre-Dame and the Louvre await. For art lovers, the Louvre is a must-see; not only will you find the famous Mona Lisa, but you can also explore incredible exhibitions that showcase both ancient and contemporary works. Booking your tickets online can save you valuable time! Another enchanting experience is visiting the Montmartre district, known for its bohemian charm, artists, and the stunning Sacré-Cœur Basilica. The area is perfect for wandering through cobblestone streets, discovering local art, and enjoying a café au lait at a quaint sidewalk café. As you immerse yourself in Parisian life, don't miss out on sampling delicious local bites from boulangeries, patisseries, and open-air markets, which offer everything from fresh baguettes to delectable pastries. The charm of Paris truly comes to life during outdoor dining, where you can relax and watch the world go by. Be sure to reserve a spot at some of the cities' highly-rated outdoor restaurants to savor authentic French cuisine. Wrap up your day at the glowing Eiffel Tower; consider a picnic with locally sourced snacks as you watch the stunning illumination light up the Parisian sky each hour, making for an unforgettable evening! Lastly, consider planning day trips to nearby castles, such as Versailles, to enrich your travel experiences further.
