24 Hours in Paris

Paris deserves as much time as you can dedicate, however if you only have one night, you can still do Paris justice.

For the first day I would recommend visiting the Eiffel Tower, start by visiting Trocadero Gardens to get a full view of the Eiffel Tower. From here, head towards the Arc de Triomphe, here you can climb to the top for a brilliant view of the Eiffel Tower. Although touristy, a walk down the Champs-Elysees is still a must even if just to window-shop! This is also the place to head to Laduree for their famous macarons.

Whilst here, pay a visit to the Lourve, although the queue (especially to see the Mona Lisa) are extremely long, so visit early if you wish to see the painting.

Then in the evening, take a walk along the Seine River, taking in the sunset.

Starting bright and early the next day, start at the Opera house, a beautiful building full of history. Just a couple of streets away is the shop, Galerie Lafayette. Walk to the roof to get amazing free views of the city, where you can see the Eiffel Tower.

Then, wander back towards to Seine where you will walk past Pont Neuf bridge. From here you will then be a short walk to the Notre Dame, which is one of the most iconic sights in the world. I would then recommend staying here for the remainder of the afternoon, with the surrounding area having some brilliant places to eat (including the geleteria - Berthillion Glacier).

If you do not wish to walk to each spot, buy a carnet ticket which is ten metro tickets for 14.90€.
