Paris, France

Located in the north of France on the river Seine, Paris has the reputation of being one of the most beautiful and romantic of all cities, brimming with historic associations and remaining vastly influential in the realms of culture, art, fashion, food and design. Dubbed the City of Light (la Ville Lumière), it is the most popular tourist destination in the world. And now is a good time to visit.
The weather is fine, the flowers are in bloom and the tourism crush has yet to arrive. However, you will still have to wait in lines to ascend the Eiffel Tower. Walking in Paris is one of the great pleasures of visiting the City of Light. It is possible to cross the entire city in only a few hours, but only if you can somehow keep yourself from stopping at numerous cafés and shops! Or, you can take a boat tour on the Seine- a great way to see the city and relax. Take the time to walk along the Seine or have a nice picnic in one of Paris' many parks. If you're up to it, try rollerblading or riding a bicycle by the Seine on Sunday mornings or on one of the scheduled bike and rollerblade tours. What to do. Paris really can’t be done in a hurry or on the cheap.
You can find hundreds of beautiful restaurants with thoughtful interior design and well-planned and executed cartes and menus offering a creative mélange of French and exotic foreign cuisines. For the best value, look for places to eat away from the major tourist attractions. In addition there are numerous small sidewalk cafes where you can have a coffee and just watch. There are numerous iconic landmarks (far too many to list here) among its many attractions, along with world famous institutions and popular parks. To see as much as possible and make the best use of your time in Paris, invest in a good guide book on or before arrival.
