Paris on Weekend

Paris on Weekend

Things to remember before starting your day:

  • Opt for Paris Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour pass. 30-40 Euro for 1 day, 45-40 Euro for 2 days, etc.
  • Some of the Hop-on Hop-off Bus passes includes River Cruise also, so choose as per your interests.
  • If you have budget constraints then take Train/ Metro pass that will cost approx 8 Euro per day.

Day 1:

Arrived in Paris

8:30 AM –

Take your healthy and fully packed breakfast in your hostel/ hotel.

9:00 AM –

Start your day with the Louvre Museum to avoid large queues. Le Louvre is undeniably one of the finest art galleries in the world.

You have to check out:

  • The Mona Lisa – the top draw of the museum
  • Venus de Milo
  • Winged Victory
  • The giant glass pyramid outside.
  • The largest display of Egyptian antiques outside of Cairo
  • The Islamic art section

Nearest metro station: Louvre Rivoli and Palais Royal Musée du Louvre

Note: The queues in the Louvre are huge, save time by booking in advance a skip the line ticket. 

The Ticket cost will approx 20-25 Euro.

12:30 PM –

Enjoy your lunch meal.

1:00 AM –

Move towards Arc de Triomphe, it is the largest of its kind in the world, and one of the most beautiful.

You have to check out:

  • Place de la concorde
  • Roue de Paris
  • Palais royal
  • Rue de Rivoli

4:00 PM –

Evening time is for Eiffel Tower. The Eiffel Tower is one of the most recognizable landmarks in Europe and the world, and one of the most visited as well.

Go to the first floor via lift then spent some time here.

Now move to the second floor and spent some time here as well.

It’s time to move towards the top and now it’s all yours. Spent some quality time because this time will never come again and again. Roam all around and take your pictures.

Enjoy the sunset view from the Eiffel Tower.

Stay here and enjoy the Lighting show also.

Now it’s time to say bye-bye to Eiffel tower but once you are down make sure you will watch the lighting show from outside also and you will love it.

Note: The queues in the Eiffel Tower are huge, save time by booking in advance a skip the line ticket. 

Ticket price will vary from 16 to 26 Euro approx depending on the levels but my preference to opt for the Ticket with access lift to the top.

8:00 PM –

Enjoy your Dinner 🙂

8:30 PM – 

Visit the Moulin Rouge, the world-renowned cabaret in Paris.

  • See one of the world’s most famous cabaret shows at the Moulin Rouge.
  • Watch a troupe of 60 artists perform the famous “Féerie” show.
  • Marvel at handmade costumes of feathers, rhinestones, and sequins.
  • Share an unforgettable evening with family, friends, or a loved one.
  • Sip on sparkling Champagne as you enjoy an iconic French experience.

Entry Fee: The fee cost will vary on weekends, it usually costs approx 140-200 Euros approx. The show timings are 9:00 pm & 11:00 pm. 

Note:

  • The queues in the Moulin Rouge are huge or sometimes the tickets are full, it’s better to book the tickets in advance.
  • If you have budget constraints or you are not interested then you can skip this place but it’s worth it to watch this show.

Day 2:

8:30 AM-

Breakfast

9:00 AM –

Start your day with one of the most stunning gothic cathedrals of all time, Notre-Dame is the heart and soul of Paris.

  • The exterior is beautiful to see, and you can see the three main entrances – the Portal of the Virgin, the Portal of the Last Judgment, and the Portal of St. Anne.
  • As you enter the church, you will be overwhelmed with the beauty of the interior and how the soft lights glistening through the window contrast with the grandeur of the interior.

Visit The Tower:

The bell towers are a separate visit with a separate entrance, and you can pay 8-12 Euros approx to climb up 387 stairs and enjoy gorgeous views of Paris where you can see the most famous monuments like the Louvre, the Sorbonne, the Panthéon, and the Ile Saint-Louis.  The North tower, however, will give you the famous gargoyle’s perspective of Paris.

Nearest metro station: St-Michel Notre Dame – RER B | St-Michel Notre Dame – RER C
Entry fee: Entry is free, but visitors will need tickets to enter the tower (€8.50) and the crypt access (€6).

Noon –

Next destination is Luxembourg Gardens. The city of Paris is dotted with lush green and beautiful gardens, and Luxembourg Gardens is the city’s most prized parks in Paris. If you’re visiting Paris during summer or spring season, you’ll see a riot of colors overshadowing the green of the garden, but the garden looks wonderful throughout the year. Throughout the garden, more than 100 statues dating from the 19th century to the present.

2:00 PM –

Lunch time.

2:30 PM –

After Lunch head towards Montmartre. Start with the I Love You Wall, then you can go to the Place du Tertre to watch its many artists (a must-see for tourists) and that is where you can stop for a drink and enjoy the Parisian summer sun.
From Place du Tertre take the Rue Norvins, make a turn on rue du Mont-Cenis, and then get in the rue du Chevalier de la Barre to get to the Basilica of the Sacré Coeur. You can also enjoy boarding the Montmartre Funicular, or just climb the many steps up to the monument. Whether you are the sporty kind or the passive kind, both means of transportation are worth taking!

5:30 PM –

The Seine Boat Cruise is the perfect way to end your day and the best time to have a cruise ride in the evening.

  • 1-hour Seine River cruise/tour.
  • See the landmarks of the river banks on a leisurely Seine River Cruise.
  • The perfect way to relax after a long day of sightseeing.
  • Enjoy a wide range of departure times with your flexible ticket.

Standard cruise rides start from 15 euros approx for 1 hour and it varies as per the different choices.

7:30 PM –

Enjoy your dinner.
