10 days in Paris Itinerary

A beautiful and romantic city fit for any itinerary, Paris brims with historic associations and remains vastly influential in the realms of culture, art, fashion, food and design.

Head to Le Marais and Saint Germain des Pres Quarterfor some retail therapy. Eiffel Tower and Louvre Museum are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Change things up with these side-trips from Paris: Palace of Versailles (in Versailles), Champagne Alain Mercier et Fils (in Passy-sur-Marne) and Chartres Cathedral (in Chartres). There's lots more to do: admire the masterpieces at Musee d'Orsay, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Basilique du Sacre-Coeur de Montmartre, shop like a local with Champs-Elysees, and admire the landmark architecture of Arc de Triomphe.
