Lyon to Paris in March Hi all, My partner and I found some cheap flights to France, flying into Lyon and out of Paris, in March of 2024. This would be a 8-9 day trip in total. Given Lyon’s proximity to the Alps, we were wondering about going to Chamonix and taking a train (or trains!) through the region. Our trip would eventually have to then take us north (perhaps t…

Paris Metro Reminder/Warning We were just fined €70 for failing to get a photo affixed to our weekly Metro pass (who knew??) We had been to Le Marais and were flagged at the Chatelet station. Metro officers were checking tickets and pulled us aside, chastised the hell out of us, and when we explained we had been traveling all week without issue, nor had been told at the beg…

Paralympics in Paris Hey people, hope everyone is doing alright. I’ve been researching on how accessible Paris is because I really would love to go to the Paralympics next year – and also visit Paris for the first time. I saw online that lots of stations have no elevators, for example, and that the whole city is like hell for people with impairments. Does anyone hav…

Amsterdam or Paris for 4-5 days solo-traveller? I (24M) did my first solo-trip last year in Berlin. I will stay 4-5 days as before, planning to see certain landmarks, museums, walk & drink a lot. I’m not really into the nightlife and clubs so they are not important for this trip. Amsterdam seems much easier to walk and navigate around as it is smaller than Paris. However Paris have more place…

Paris and the beg bugs. Planned a trip to Paris in January (Early Jan). Considering there is a bed bug infestation and my assumption that it will only keep getting worse, should I still be going to Paris? It’s only 3 months away and I highly doubt it’s enough to get rid of them, also considering they are the resistant type. submitted by /u/Old-Caramel-1392

Scam at RER station, Paris – Travelling to Disneyland Paris by RER train One of the easiest ways to travel to Disneyland Paris is by RER A to Marne-la-Vallée station which requires separate ticket to travel. A single one way ticket costs €5. Here is what happened. Last week, we were at National station and queuing to buy the tickets from the machine with a bunch of other foreign tourists. Some took a while to naviga…

Tianducheng – the Fake Paris in China Here are some photos of my afternoon today that I spent at Tianducheng in the North East of Hangzhou. Genuinely really cool to see a replica Eiffel Tower and Champs-Elysees! Has anyone else been to a replica city in China? submitted by /u/dannymo0698

How can I surprise my parents traveling in Paris today? Pretty last second, but its my parents anniversary and they are in Paris on their only overseas vacation they’ve ever taken. I’m looking for ideas on how to surprise them with a gift. submitted by /u/curlyfrie1028

Wemby to play in Paris: ‘No other goal than gold’ Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama affirmed his commitment to France’s national squad at the 2024 Summer Games, saying “there’s no other goal than gold.”

3 day shenanigans in Paris 🥖🇫🇷 3 days of mayhem in 🇫🇷 From an elaborate and almost never ending subway (I got lost quite a bit) to the Eiffel Tower and it’s unforgettable views of the entire city, this was Paris though my eyes…. submitted by /u/MasterM001

Paris and Italy? I’m planning a trip for two weeks for May 2024. It would be my first time at Paris but my partner’s 2nd time going. It would be both our first time going to Italy. We do have a family event in Positano in 2025 but we would also like to experience Italy together alone, for our first time. We’re interested in going to Florence/Rome. If we do Franc…

Paris, a few days ago. Paris, you were phenomenal, vibrant, and enriching all at once. Thank you for having me. In order of appearance: 1) A charming corner in Rue de Courty, in the 7th arr. 2) As someone with an Oscar Wilde tattoo & whose favourite book has been TPODG since she was 15, seeing Oscar’s tomb was surreal. The Père Lachaise Cemetery is in a lovely area…

4hrs in Paris My wife and I are traveling in France. Tomorrow we have about 4hrs in the middle of the day after we arrive in Gare de Lyon before making it to Orly Airport to fly-out. Is there a good place to grab to lunch near the train station? We will have our bags, which will make it hard to sit down at a restaurant. submitted by /u/PittTheElder_1st…

Portugal to Paris or Just Portugal? TLDR: should my wife and I spend our whole week long vacation in Portugal or split that time between Lisbon and Paris (or maybe Prague)? My wife and I originally planned to visit Portugal (we’ve never been) for a week, spending a few days in Lisbon and a few in Faro. Then we found the cheap flights out of Lisbon to Paris and Prague. We’ve been t…

Is Paris really so overrated? Me and my wife are going to Europe in September – October and so far we have decided to do Budapest (4 nights), Vienna (4 nights), Prague (3 nights), Bruges (2 nights), and Paris (5 nights). I have been reading a lot (especially on Reddit) about Paris being overrated and I have been told we wouldn’t really enjoy it there. But we really like it …

Do you recommend Paris-Normandy-Loire or Paris-Burgundy-Alps for a young family? We are planning a 10-12 day trip in May for a family with mom, dad, toddler, baby, grandma and grandpa. Everyone is in excellent shape and grandparents are traveling to help with the children. Not including travel days, we’re considering the following itineraries. Paris (3 days), Normandy (2 days), Loire (5 days), Paris again (1 day) OR Paris (…

Never Underestimate The Power of Speaking French in Paris Learning another language gave me a whole new way of looking at the world. When that language is French and you’re in Paris, it opens other doors as well.

Flying from US to Paris My family of 5 will be vacationing in Paris for a week in 2024, then traveling to Rome to board a Mediterranean cruise. Three ADHD kids will keep it interesting. None of us have ever traveled to Europe. First, are the main cabin or economy seats on a trans-Atlantic flight generally any more roomy than domestic flights? Is an upgrade worth it? Ch…
