Paris
Walk from grand boulevards to quiet streets lined with cafés, markets, and historic monuments. The Seine links landmarks such as the Louvre, Notre-Dame, and the Eiffel Tower.
The Seine and its islands
Follow the river from the Louvre through the Tuileries to Saint-Germain-des-Prés, pausing at the bookstalls and bridges along the way. On Île de la Cité, admire Notre-Dame from the quays and leave time for the calmer lanes of Île Saint-Louis.
Museums and monuments
Book timed entry for the Louvre, Musée d’Orsay, or the Eiffel Tower, especially in busy seasons. Pair one major visit with a smaller stop such as the Musée de l’Orangerie or the Rodin Museum so the day still leaves room to wander.
Neighborhoods and evenings
Choose an arrondissement for an unhurried afternoon: Le Marais for historic lanes, Montmartre for hilltop views, or the Latin Quarter for bookshops and cafés. The Métro makes cross-city trips simple; after dinner, walk a short stretch of the river rather than trying to cover every landmark.
