Paris for Beginners: Tips for Stress-Free Travel

#Paris for #Beginners: Tips for Stress-Free #Travel

You’ll always remember your first trip to Paris.

I had dreamed of visiting Paris since I was a little girl and I finally got the chance when I spent a semester studying abroad in France. I had pictured starting my stay in France in Paris, walking along the Seine and eating croissants near the Champs-Élysées, the perfect (albiet cliché) introduction to the country. Instead, I entered France by bus via Barcelona and the first time I stepped foot on French land was at a truck stop in the middle of nowhere. A month into my trip, I made it to Paris, but I didn’t leave the airport. We had a layover at CDG on our way to Munich and, flying north from Toulouse, our landing into Paris was unbelievable. It was dark and from the plane we could see the lights of the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe at the end of the Champs-Élysées, and the curve of the Seine. But an hour later, I was on another flight out of the city. Talk about a tease.

#Paris for #Beginners: Tips for first time visitors

I finally made it to Paris a few weeks later and the city blew me away.  But, I’ll be the first to admit that Paris for beginners can be tough. Paris is my favorite city in the world but even a place this magical has challenges. Your first visit to Paris can be overwhelming when there is so much to see and do, all while navigating a different culture and a foreign language. I’ve put together the following tips to help Paris beginners plan their trips, hopefully saving time and eliminating stress, so you can fall in love with the city like I did.

Paris for Beginners – Tips for Stress-Free Travel

1. Plan in advance. The biggest mistake Paris beginners make is failing to plan. Thorough planning is crucial in order to avoid frustration and disappointment during your trip. By researching and reading, you’ll have an idea of how to navigate the city and how to schedule your time. Don’t waste time figuring this stuff out on your trip. Read as much as you can in advance and keep a notebook with notes, ideas, and useful information that you can easily reference on the go.

2. Consider your arrival.  It might be worth the money to skip the metro and hire a shuttle or driver into the city.  The Paris Metro can be confusing and especially frustrating if you’re trying to navigate with luggage.  If you’re arriving jetlagged or traveling with several people, look into other methods of transportation.  There’s nothing worse than starting your trip frustrated and you can always save money by using public transportation to get back to the airport for your flight home.

3. Buy the Paris Museum Pass. It will save you so much time and a little bit of money. It eliminates waiting in line after line at the major museums and you won’t feel bad if you stop into a museum for just a few minutes and leave. Order your pass in advance and have it shipped to you at home so you don’t waste time picking it up on your trip.

4. Walk. I like to walk as much as possible when I’m in Paris. There is something so magical about the city that I hate to spend any time underground. It’s also the best way to keep my pants from getting tight after eating croissants all day.  And honestly, forget about fashion.  You need to wear comfortable shoes or you’ll be miserable.  When you walk in Paris you never know what you’ll see… such as the time I ran into P. Diddy outside Le Meurice.

#Paris for #Beginners: Walk everywhere. You never know who you'll run into.

5. Use Uber. On my last trip, it was faster and cheaper than Parisian taxis. Sometimes walking just isn’t an option.

6. Make restaurant reservations in advance. Many restaurants take reservations by email but I recommend asking your hotel to help you in advance. Having reservations eliminates the stress of finding somewhere for dinner at the end of a long day. Also, a reservation will keep you moving when you might be tempted to go back to the hotel and crash.

7. Plan 1 or 2 free days in your itenerary. These are helpful in case a museum is unexpedly closed or too crowded or you miss something due to weather. One of my favorite things to do in Paris is to just stroll aimlessly. There is so much to look at and each neighborhood has a different feel. Spend a day just wandering around the city, stopping at plenty of cafes along the way.

#Paris for #Beginners: Plan free days into your itinerary so you can just wander

8. Make advanced reservations for the Eiffel Tower. On my first trip to Paris, I was able to secure a reservation to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower and avoided waiting hours in line. Try to book online tickets as soon as you know the dates of your trip. If they are sold out, try again in the weeks and days leading up to your visit as they release more tickets periodically.

9. Relax. You won’t see everything you wanted, there’s just too much. It’s okay. Just accept it and think of it as a reason to look forward to your next visit. Take your time and enjoy the magic of Paris.

#Paris for #Beginners: Tips for stress-free #travel

10. Forget the French stereotypes. If you go in thinking that the French are rude, you’re setting yourself up for failure. There are rude people everywhere and there are nice people everywhere. Have an open mind and you will be pleasantly surprised.

11. Rick Steves Walks & Audio Tours. I don’t recommend being a slave to a guidebook, but Rick Steves includes some great guided walks in his books. On my last trip to Paris, I followed several of the different neighborhood walks and enjoying reading his narratives while casually following his mapped routes. Use these as a suggestions rather than mandates and simply visit what interests you. Check out his audio guides, handy Pocket Paris book, and mobile travel app as well. Of course, there are plenty of other guidebooks and apps that offer similar services, so check those out if Rick Steves isn’t your style.

12. Know your hotel’s name and address. Take a few of your hotel’s cards from the front desk or write down the name and address. It seems obvious but there are multiple Marriott’s (or whatever) in Paris and things can get confusing with the language barrier. It’s easier to hand your taxi driver a card than to struggle with pronounciation.

13. Have copies of all important documents. Get the details on that here.

#Paris for #Beginners: Relax and take your time. Enjoy the magic of #Paris.

      Hi Natasha, So awesome you are planning your first trip to Paris! You will love it! I'm so sorry but I have not completed that post yet. Hotels in Paris can be quite overwhelming so please email me if you would like my advice. You can find my email under contact in the top menu bar. Paris is the most expensive hotel city in the world so you may want to look into AirBnB too. There is a great resource by my friend Robyn Webb called The Paris Apartment Guide available for download on Amazon. I like staying in the Marais, near the Louvre, and near Saint Germain des Pres. Montmarte can be great too. Rick Steves also has some good recommendations. Good luck in your trip planning and please comment or email me with any questions! Jordan

    We went in August (I know, I know!) and the lines outside Notre Dame were hours long in the hot sun, so we gave up. BUT....a one-hour line in the shade got us into Sainte Chappelle, which was the most awesome stained glass windows imaginable. Also, the Marie Curie Institute was closed (bummer!) but the nearby Pantheon was open and that was awesome--the tomb of Marie Curie and many other heroes of French culture are in the crypt. It really touched me to see Curie's tomb with flowers left by Polish visitors. Possibly our greatest memory was buying a baguette and butter and ham and making sandwiches in our b & b. Also, the light show at the Eiffel Tower at 10 pm was amazing. Going up is not necessarily the best move--you can't see the Eiffel Tower from up there! We loved the feel of the crowd at the base of the Eiffel Tower. We only had two nights in Paris, but we had an amazing time, and I hope we can return again!

      Hi Evelyn, thank you so much for the comment. Saint Chapelle is my favorite church in Paris and perhaps the most beautiful chapel in the world. It's absolutely breathtaking. I absolutely love visiting the Eiffel Tower and staring up at it from the bottom. There's no place like Paris and I'm so happy to hear you enjoyed your time spent there. When you return, I'd recommend another attempt at Notre Dame, climbing up to Sacre Coeur and wandering around Montmartre, and taking a day trip our to Versailles.

    Hi Jordan , I am planning a day trip to Paris by Eurostar from London for my daughters 18th, we arrive at 10.30am and must be back on the train to leave at 8.45pm.we go in May this year. We would like to see the following Arc de triomphe Eiffel Tower (and to visit inside and go to the top) Notre dame cathedral Then ladurée for some tea and macaroons we were thinking of 64 boulevard Haussmann ? Could you give me any advice please on which sight to start and end at and if you would recommend uber , but I would love to walk along the seine from the Eiffel Tower to the cathedral would this be a possible walk? Thank you Linda x

      Hi Linda, thanks for commenting! The distance from the Eiffel Tower to Notre Dame is about 4.5 kilometers (just under 3 miles) so it's walkable. The first thing I would do is check online and see if there are advanced reservations available for the Eiffel Tower. You can buy these tickets in advance and they will give you a time where you can take the elevator to the top. If you're able to get the tickets, I would plan your day around that. If they are sold out, I would go to the Eiffel Tower first thing and get in line. However, the lines can be long so you may decide it's not worth it to wait and decide to go to the top of the Arc de Triomphe or Notre Dame instead. If you start at the Eiffel Tower, you could then head to the Arc de Triomphe and then walk down the Champs Elysee and stop at Laudree on the way. This will lead you to the Tuileries Garden and the Louvre. After that, you can cross the river and head to Notre Dame. It will be a packed day, but if you're efficient, you will hopefully be able to get everything in. The area around Notre Dame is one of my favorites in Paris so you can explore there until you head back to the train station. Another idea would be to have lunch at the Eiffel Tower. That way you get to go up to the second level (not the very top) and won't have to worry about getting a ticket. Please email me with more questions using the contact button at the top of the page. I'd love to help you more!

But Im getting stressed planning my Paris Trip this September because all of the Restaurants I Wanna Go to, don't take reaservations. I wanted to know if you can reccommend me some that you know I can booked before-hand. I really don't wanna go to the city if I don't have my places to eat already planned. I had another question.... which one is better to see Paris at Night.. Bateaux mouches or Bateaux Parisiens? Thanks a lot! Best Regards.

    Hi Jordan, I loved your article - so much great advice. My wife and I loved walking the streets of Paris and taking the opportunity to "discover" little treasures as we wandered between the big attractions. It is such a beautiful city to walk. I must say, when we needed to use the metro we found it pretty good and logically organised - at least compared to our own Australian train system!

    Jordan, I went to Paris for my first time several years ago. I booked a hotel on line and stayed at the Hotel Suede. One of the recommendations I would make to Americans traveling to Paris is this: Be prepared to stay in much smaller hotel rooms than you are use to, and not all hotel in Paris have A/C. One of the best Hotels is West End. It's centrally located and the rooms have a balcony you sit on for two people and you get a view of the Eiffel Tower. As for eating, there is really no place you can go wrong. Paris has a lot of great places to eat. My suggestion follow your nose, and take a chance on a place that looks good to you. I'm going back to Paris in September and I can't wait to discover more.

      Hi Kevin! Sorry it took me a bit to respond. You are so right about hotel rooms being smaller in Europe. It can be a bit of an adjustment, especially when you're paying Paris prices! West End sounds nice and with a balcony overlooking the Eiffel Tower, what more can you ask for? Maybe just a glass of champagne! I hope you have a wonderful time in Paris this September and please report back and let me know how it goes!

      My biggest recommendation is to dress comfortably! You'll be walking all day and the last thing you want to do is be uncomfortable. I love fashion, but I tend to dress more comfortably when I'm traveling. Make sure you have comfortable shoes! Layers are always good and I tend to wear dark or neutral colors when I'm in Europe. Nice jeans and a cute sweater and you can't go wrong! I've never been to Paris for NYE but I think there are big celebrations on the Champs Elysees and at the Eiffel Tower.

    Hi Jordan, I am from the Netherlands, so my english is not so very good. But I have been a several times to Paris with my granddaughter (now 11 YEARS) and we love it. We also booked budget hotels, and that is really duable. We also like to walk around in Paris, and enjoy the many terrasses . We can't get enough of Paris. We're planning it again to go in march, so nowwe have something to look forward too. We did have lunched on the Eiffeltower,and really it was breathtaking, we always found out new things there. Or walking in the Tuilleries, and sit down on a bench. Walking amongst the Seine, well there is a lot. Again excuse my English. But I enjoyed reading your blog, and you also give a lot off new ideas. Thank you.

    I am enjoying reading all your information on Paris. Have you been there at the end of September/beginning of October? This will be my first time there-have been dreaming of it for over 30 years. Traveling with a friend who has been there once, but I'm such a planner that I want to have as much information up front so once I get to a destination I can relax. Do you normally stay in hotels or through Airbnb at apartments? I have a list growing on where to go/what to eat/best area to stay-I wish it was tomorrow versus 18 months! Sorry to babble on, but you have such good information here, I thought your brain would be a good one to pick :)

      Hi there! I do both Airbnb and Hotels. Parisian hotel rooms tend to be small and expensive, so depending on your budget, an apartment rental might be a better option. My best advice is to focus more on location. You probably won't be in your room much at all, but it's always better to be in a centrally located area or in one of your favorite neighborhoods. Good luck with your planning and let me know if you have any other questions!

I totally agree with you on just "getting lost" in the city. There is beauty in the most unexpected places. I'm considering traveling alone on my next trip. Have you ever done that? Any advice?

      Hi there! Eating at the top of the Eiffel Tower in the Jules Verne restaurant is always a special experience. Also, check out recommendations on the website Paris by Mouth. It really depends on your budget and what kind of food you like. Any meal in Paris can be special! Yam'Tcha is also a favorite. As for tours, yes, I love them. However, I would really read reviews on Tripadvisor before booking anything. I've had great experiences by booking tours that are very highly rated on Tripadvisor. Context Travel is a great company and I love the Paris Charms and Secrets Tour. Also, check out Midnight in Paris by Wheels (amazing experience!!!) and Anto's Paris. I've had amazing experiences with all of these companies.

    Paris is a wonderful city. Myself, I would recomment to visit Montmartre which is a very nice neighbourhood in Paris. At "Place du Tertre" (square at Montmartre) you will find many paint artists and many restaurants. On hot a summerday it's also nice to have a drink in the park named "Jardin du Luxembourg". For the best city-view you should go on top of "Tour Montparnasse" (next to Gare Montparnasse). It will give you a superb view on the Eiffel Tower. Perhaps our subway navigation system might be usefull as well. https://www.metrocazar.com/paris/

    When we do citybreaks be tend to do a LOT of walking and don't use public transport all that much. So for us, Paris' Metro Carnet (book of 10 tickets) is perfect. Two great things about them: 1: They don't expire so any leftover tickets can be kept & used for the next time you visit Paris. 2: They’re 10 individual tickets so you can hand tickets to friends who’re travelling with you and you both benefit from the cheaper price per ticket.
