8 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.

Eiffel Tower and Musee d'Orsay are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Louvre Museum and Musee Rodin will appeal to museum buffs. Step out of Paris to go to Versailles and see Palace of Versailles, which is approximately 48 minutes away. There's still lots to do: steep yourself in history at Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris, take a stroll through Montmartre, shop like a local with Champs-Elysees, and pause for some serene contemplation at Basilique du Sacre-Coeur de Montmartre.
