The top stops along the way from Sancerre to Paris (with short detours) are Louvre Museum, Disneyland Paris, and Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris. Other popular stops include Musée d'Orsay, Parc Walt Disney Studios, and The Basilica of Sacré-Cœur de Montmartre.
This is a great stop for any wine-lovers visiting Sancerre - for 10 euros per adult you can explore the mini museum-like tour, which includes a 4D film, beautiful aromatic garden, and lots of well presented information about the wine making process. Afterwards, head up to the tasting room where your ticket price includes 3 samples of wine. You can even top up the tasting card if you want to try more (which we did!) There is also a great shop with some lovely art prints and gifts. The staff were very welcoming and able to speak brilliant English to complement my poor French! A worthwhile visit.
Charlotte Evans — Google review
A nice place to visit, with lots of information about the production of the wine but the wine tasting was a little disappointing - you buy coupons and insert them in a machine which automatically dispenses wine of your choice. You are very much left to yourself to do this. It would have been nice if someone was in this area to assist. There were only staff nearby who were working in the reception area.

Very nice village, but also very touristy.
Sancerre wineshops at every corner at very fancy prices.

I wholeheartedly agree. this is kind of a must stop if your a wine lover. This place is going to give you not only some history of the wine from the region. Helpful maps and dynamic interactive displays will pull you . They will also give you a bit of local history to boot. Children will find the stop exciting as well

Pour acheté du bon vin de Sancerre
Guédelon is a remarkable project where a team of workers is constructing a medieval-style castle using original techniques and materials from the 13th century. Located in the heart of an ancient sandstone quarry, this living museum offers visitors the opportunity to witness artisans such as stonemasons, carpenters, blacksmiths, and more at work. The site also features workshops where tools and materials for the castle's construction are crafted.
An astonishing project, craftsmen are building a medieval castle from scratch using traditional methods and tools. There is ample parking. The toilet facilities, like all on offer are well maintained and clean. Visitors can wander as they please through the complex, watching craftspeople at work. The castle is only part of the attraction, nearby in the woods are medieval workshops and buildings. We did not try the restaurants, apparently the food is good.
Julius Charrett-Dykes — Google review
This place is a living museum and it is great. The craftsmen here are reconstructing a medieval castle using the same tools, materials, and methods they used in the middle ages during the reign of Philippe II.
They have been working on it for years and years, and the castle will be completed in a few years (2025 was an estimate given by a mason working there)
Around the castle you will find all sorts of workshops where they are crafting the tools and materials needed to create the castle. You will find things like a smith, a carpenter, a quarry, a mortar maker, a stone worker, a dye and paint maker, a watermill, and many more things.
The people working there are all dressed in medieval clothes, and they are happy to explain the things they're working on and teach you the techniques. It is super interesting, but you will have a hard time talking to the craftsmen if you do not speak French. There are signs all over the place in both French and English, but the staff only speak French.
You will also find more modern facilities near the entrance, such as a restaurant and a souvenir shop, and they also have a decent number of bathrooms. The place is a great place to bring kids, and you can easily spend a full day there, but keep in mind though that the ground is very uneven and not great for strollers, prams, or wheel chairs.
The restaurant is very expensive, and the servings are tiny, so I really recommend that you bring your own food. There are plenty of picnic areas at the place and you are welcome to bring your own food and drink if you prefer to do that.

It's an experimental concept that started in 1997 to recreate a 13th century Medieval castle inspired by nearby Saint Fargeau castle. And it is planned to finish around 2030 with eventually an abbey and a village to be constructed near the castle too! There is a lot of historical information and some reproduction of medieval activities that you can attend to. It can be fun and very kid friendly! 😊

Building a castle in a traditional way!
They were building without using modern heavy equipment. What a challenging idea. I could see all the Middle Age’s daily life there. Strongly recommend to give a visit when you have a chance.
공과장 (Manager Kong) — Google review
Very interesting site, even if you are not a builder. A Medieval castle being reconstructed using tools and materials of the period. Everything is done on site, including stone cutting, rope making, dies, wood beams, tiles, slakes, etc. A veritable treasure trove, my second visit and always informative and enjoyable.
Nigel McKinley — Google review
This provided better insight into medieval life than do visits to actual medieval sites. The chance to watch a log being hewn into a beam by a man with a primitive ax is worth most of the price of admission, and there's much more artisanry to observe. Apart from the workmen's footwear and a few safety measures, the only anachronism I spotted was a squash in the garden. The food wasn't bad, and the beer was excellent.
charles robinson — Google review
Such a unique project, well presented and informative. Would come again to see the progress, very much placed the building techniques of the time in context.

What a nice place. I visited the first time during covid. Now a bit more crowdy, but never too much. Nice explanation of what you see and of the life at that time. Very nice persons working there. Really willing to help you understand what happens.
One pitty, only in French....
A lot changed over the course of the last 3 years. You can see the difference
Els Eeckhout — Google review
This is an amazing educational and fun place to see active experimental archeology in action.
How did 13th century people build the amazing castles and cathedrals of Europe? How did they shape the stones and lift them into place? You'll see them make baskets used to carry everything from mortar to herbs and soils used to make paint pigments.
Wear comfortable shoes appropriate for slogging around an active construction site. There are signs in French and English, and some workers speak English, but the site is in France. They do explain what, why, and how they do things mostly in French (it's their country). They will try to explain in English if you ask.
Gregory Schmidt — Google review
Amazing place to visit. It takes you back in time in the 13th century. It's great to see in the 21st century a medieval construction made without modern tools nor techniques. It is also very instructive place for the kids, the guides and workers are kind, friendly and answering all your questions. There is also a restaurant in place with kind personal and simple but good food and snacks.
Krisz Edith — Google review
This amazing place is being built since 1997 with the same techniques of the XIII century. No new machinery at all!
A great place for discovering skills almost lost with the industrial revolution. You can find blacksmiths, stone carvers, wood turning (all by hand), wood carving, pottery for tiles, bowls, and much more, a watermill for making flour, horses and much more!
A great place for the kids (and adults) to discover the medieval times and how they were making objects and a castle all by hand!
Great for a picnic, but if you find yourself willing to treat yourself there is also a restaurant. Try the veg burger is very good! (And I love meat! A lot!)

I recommend buying the treasure hunt kit for the kids it was perfect to discover the site.
Damien Bernard — Google review
An amazing place through and through. A trip back in time in both its presentation and its construction. Seeing the different jobs at work in generally period accurate attire and with era correct methodology was just as amazing to view as the castle. Only gripe is that many of the signs are in french only, forcing you to translate with your phone. It still was worth it though, and if you speak french and enjoy the medieval period, I cannot recommend it enough.
Andrew J — Google review
Was interesting to see how an old village would have been set up, with a blacksmith, baker, herb garden, animals being raised etc. The work on the buildings is quite good and apparently sticking to old-school methods, but a big draw card was watching it actually being done, and this wasn't happening. Theŕe were a handful of volunteers in costum wandering around but you weren't likely to see them in action. Maybe we went on a slow "work" day.

Wonderful place to visit! I would highly recommend hiring an English guide to learn more about everything if you don’t speak French. It’s set in a very picturesque landscape in the countryside. There are food and drink vendors, clean bathrooms, activities and learning opportunities for medieval technologies.

Castle open for visits, plus night tours with costumed actors & occasional historical pageants.
We loved our visit here including the village of Saint-Fargeau which has excellent restaurants and cafes. We particularly enjoyed seeing how the caste is being restored, the toy museum, the view of the servants areas and the beautiful grounds and large lake. There are geese and horses also on the property.
Mugette stevenson-marelic — Google review
5 Star visit - Such a fantastic place to spend a day. The project started in 2010 and we have been promising to visit for years!!
Our timing was out of school holidays so was certainly quieter nevertheless there are point to tip you off.
Car park is big and free - be prepared there is no parking shade
Entrance is dead easy and no queues but it might be wise to pre book your ticket in peak summer.
Inside is a wide open site of many acres inviting you to wander round a ask questions or visit the demonstrations.
TIP: There are no guides in English. Everyone speaks French! (it's France afteral). Some explanatory signs have English translation but nobody is going to give you a guided tour in English. We coped well with a fair command of French so just go for it.
TIP: Very little shade while you walk around. Wear a sun hat and slap on the cream and take your bottles of water.
Tip: the ground surface is authentic so that means so rough surfaces so wear nice comfy flat shoes.
We loved all of it. Outside and inside the finished buildings.
Go wander around the craft workshops making stuff as it its 1350 AD.
TIP: You know our French friends love to lunch we'll get into the food area by 12 noon. Food was just great with quality of nice salads, pies, sandwiches etc, wine, beer & cafe all nicely done and reasonable price for captured customers. Sit at tables under cover or dappled shade - delightful.
Tip: Loos. Well not super great. Outside for parking / camping it's 1350 Earth Closet that you use fully (good luck). Inside limited loos by the cafe area.
By the time the site catches up to 2023 I am sure they will be better!! Ha Ha

Nice and cute castle. Lively centre of local comunity. No reduced admission for families with kids. Gide only on French.
JOvi Ein — Google review
The castle is beautifully decorated both outside and inside. The entire complex is very large and you should therefore take plenty of time to explore the building and the park in all their details. The best thing for me was the possibility to go up to the attic. The way the construction is made of wood is impressive. Definitely worth a visit!
Jörg Straub — Google review
Great stop on my way back from holidays. Well preserved castle. It feels like we are back in medieval times. Really enjoyed the sceneries in each of the rooms. Really great job restoring the castle to give us an idea of how it was looking like. Don’t miss the roof frames, the winter room upstairs and the locomotives in the garden on your way to the lake. I didn’t attend the night show yet but it looks really amazing. Take some time to visit the surroundings of the castle too.

Still being renovated,looks like the owners gave themselves a decent task,but somehow saved the site.The guide is entertaining(if you understand french),the plus is the attic open to the public(not common in those kind of buildings)with the collection of ancient toys on display.The parc and garden(english style)are worth a walk too.
Canal bridge built in the 1890s by the Eiffel company with a pedestrian pathway & lanterns.
Absolutely beautiful. One thing to see once in a lifetime. It's crazy to think that a canal is literally going above a river. This bridge might 130 years old but it's a great life of engineering that shows that when mankind wants to accomplish something, it can.

Medieval castle converted to a grand house in the 1500s, with furnished rooms & a children's museum.
Great treasure hunt in a beautiful chateau with fantastic views of the Loire Valley. Clues are difficult enough to keep 2 adults and a teenager interested. Takes you throughout the chateau and around the grounds with traditional games to play and plenty of things to see and do in each room. We particularly appreciated that we could eat our own picnic in the beautiful grounds. If you don't speak French you would need to use your phone to translate the clues. Or you can simply look around without doing the treasure hunt for a lesser price which would be well worth it. We had a great afternoon there.

Great castle. We’ve been there at least 4-5 times. The “treasure hunt” is always good fun with the kids and they keep it fresh. There’s a new management team which is working on investing more into the castle. The gift store is not quite as full as it used to be. But otherwise always a good trip when we’re in the region.
Martin Soler — Google review
If you expect to view an impressive castle, it's not worth it. However we spent a fun afternoon with the riddles. You actually have to explore and touch things to find some clues which is very satisfying to the inner child. It was surprisingly hard, we couldn't find some clues but managed to solve the riddle in the end by the power of deduction. Would recommend if you're around the area and looking to spend some time with non sightseeing typical activities.
Adam — Google review
The castle looks nice from the outside but is not worth the entrance fee. They have devised some sort of quest for a hidden treasure leading you through this supposedly 'haunted castle'.
If you're a child or like puzzles and riddles you may enjoy yourself. Probably best if you speak French, English translations are provided but seem lacking that intent of the French thus making you miss clues.
If you're more interested in finding out about the history of the castle, just don't waste your time. You'll be sorely disappointed by all the fake cobwebs and other nonsense.

Medieval castle once home to 1st Duke of Sully, with moat & park, plus tours of furnished interior.

We've been to lots of castles during this years Road Trip through France, Belgium and The Netherlands. And this castle here is a really nice one.
Because we brought our Bulldog with and we also had more plans for the day, we just visited the park and the outside of the castle. It's a very picturesque castle. If you'd be asked to draw a castle, it would look something like this. Fairy Tale style. So it's a real looker. But it's not the biggest and most impressive we've came around. There have been more massive, more excessive examples. And the park / gardens here a quite small compared to other.
But for a visit when in the area it's stll recommandable. It's still a very beautiful piece of architecture with a very nice moat around it.
Alex Haas — Google review
Not restored to boutique standards, but with more than enough history and artifacts to occupy a morning or a leisurely day. Not nearly as crowded as others.
charles robinson — Google review
It's what you would image a castle should look like, including a moat. The sun was shining and making for good photos today. The inside had many beautiful and interesting slights to see. There were many stairs to climb. So, if you have trouble walking up pie stairs, you might need to enjoy some of it inside and take pleasure in how beautiful it is on the outside. There were plenty of tapestries, furniture and paintings to view. The bedrooms were wonderful. When you go upstairs you can see how they constructed the roof. All and all it was a great time. I even ran out of charge to take more photos of the last rooms I visited. Also, the outside had some stunning sites for picture taking!

Château de Fontainebleau is a grand former royal residence with a rich history dating back to the 12th century. It has been expanded over time by different monarchs and now houses four museums and luxurious apartments. The chateau has played a significant role in French history, being the site of important events such as the Edict of Fontainebleau and the Treaty of Fontainebleau.
This is incredible place. Much od everything belongs to Napoleon 1st. You can see how his rooms was arranged, his familly tree, many of his personal stuff. Don’t miss jard which is also fantastic with mini lake in it.

Just amazing to say the least. The rooms and wood cravings on the walls are wonderful. There were lots of rooms to tour. We were getting tired after awhile. We got the audio guided tour, but it was hard for us to find the rooms we were in. It was probably just us. You might not have any problem. We were able to get a wheelchair for my wife. The admission for us was free. The audio guided tour was 6 Euros each. The grounds looked great from the windows, but the train that takes you around wasn't working today. Maybe it was because of it being raining day. It was worth going to, even with visiting Versailles the other day.

We brought a bottle of wine and a blanket and enjoyed a picnic as there is a locker room where you can leave your belongings with individual cells.

This may be a little biased as Napoleon is a very fascinating person to me, but I must say that this place was absolutely stunning. The building itself is huge and all of the rooms avaliable to the public seem to be in their original form. The gardens outside are stunning as well and I will have to come back some time to explore the rest.

Little Versailles some would say. This chateau is a great introduction to the French nobility lifestyle. Really nice castle with a big terrace and garden. Very close by the parking spots and accessible via the city entrances. Must see.

What an awesome historical location! This is Napoleon's home. There's a tour to see some of the rooms and many paintings. It's a great experience. Allow at least 3hrs to do the tour and enjoy the grounds.

Lovely experience in a sunny day! It allows you to peak into early 19th century lives of kings and dictators and feel a bit of Napoleon’s sudden rise and fall. I strongly recommend strolling through the gardens.

Château de Fontainebleau - Palace of Fontainebleau ❤️ The King Napoleon have enjoyed his life. so much of stuff, battles and history. not far from Paris, to spend a day around the garden and the Palace 🪴🪴🪴🪴🪴 (The medieval castle and subsequent palace served as a residence for the French monarchs from Louis VII to Napoleon III. Francis I and Napoleon were the monarchs who had the most influence on the Palace as it stands today.) 🍀🍀🍀

We opted to go see the Chateau instead of Versailles due to time restraints and we are so glad we did. The Chateau is lesser known so there were no lines, no wait times, it was perfect because we were alone the majority of the time while we got to explore. The town of Fontainebleau is also super cute and fun to walk around.

This is a place that I wanted to visit for a long time. It was up to my expectations as it shows proof of the french emperor who won a battle for my country during the french possessed my island.

What a fantastic chateau to experience. The gorgeous rooms where King Louis III was born, the Marie Antoinette bed that she never got to sleep in, the amazing halls and chambers of over 800 years of France’s kings and queens who lived there. I enjoyed it much more than Versailles and easily spent in half a day. Unfortunately more than half of the buildings were closed and the Musée Chinoise was not open and the Golden Gate was under renovation.
Fontainebleau is a town located in the southeast of Paris, renowned for its extravagant palace built by French royalty. The palace boasts parts that date back to the 1100s and houses a variety of attractions such as Marie Antoinette's Turkish boudoir, the Napoleon Museum, and an opulent theater. The town's formal gardens are adorned with sculptures and ornamental lakes, while Fontainebleau forest envelops both the chateau and town.

Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte is a stunning 17th-century chateau surrounded by formal gardens, offering a remarkable blend of architecture and natural beauty. The interior is steeped in history, with well-preserved decor elements that transport visitors to the XVIII century. The audio guide provides an engaging tour, complementing the overall experience. A highlight is the impressive kitchen, adding to the chateau's allure. Visitors can also enjoy dining at the on-site restaurant and bar area.
Beautiful and well maintained chateau. The building architecture really amazing. This chateau inspired King Louis XIV built Versailles. Have been here very long time ago.

This is an absolutely incredible place. The chateau is beautiful and you are able to tour so many rooms. They have a great audio tour in many languages that is really well done.

Many people think this is the most beautiful chateau in France. There ia a parking just in the front gardens close at 7 pm but the last access to the chateau is at 4:45. We arrived at 4:30 and it was just for us nobody was there the parking was empty and only a small group of people in the castle. Highly recommended.

It was a great experience to be out in the French countryside and learn a bit of history without the massive crowds similar to Versailles. Taking a golf buggy around the grounds was a fun way to see everything and take pictures as quickly as you can. Food was very traditional French fare in the restaurant, which was an experience by itself (Andouille sausages, for example).
A must for anyone who wants to experience chateaus without being overwhelmed by the crowds.

Simply the most magical and magnificent historic moment in all of France... possibly all of Europe. Better than Versailles. Go go go see it. You won't be disappointed. It was an honor just to go. Plan to spend an entire day. Clean bathroom and great food as well. Cart rentals to see the grounds are available and worth the small fee.

Better than Versailles in my opinion. Gorgeous, very well cared for, the staff are pleasant, and the audio tour is a theatricality done history which is quite well executed.

I've spent a lot of time in France and it gets my top recommendation.

Beautiful house with a fascinating but sad history. A lot of passion went into planning this house and gardens. We spent an extra 5 euros to go up to the dome where we could look out. I recommend this if you are agile. The spiral staircase to the top is narrow. My mom is 85 and she did it, though. Spectacular views at the top.

Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte offers a fun experience, beautifully merging history with impeccable maintenance. From the moment you step onto the premises, the castle’s grandeur captures you.
The audio tour is particularly enjoyable, offering fun and insightful narratives about the historical figures. It's an engaging way to dive into the castle's past. The interior is a visual treat, with each room meticulously decorated.
The bar/restaurant by the entrance is a gem, serving delicious food that perfectly rounds off the visit. Highly recommend for a day out exploring European history.

How there are not more visitors at this chateau is completely beyond me, it is unquestionably superior to so many of the larger chateaus that receive more visitors. It is such a marvel of architecture and the way it compliments the gardens is perfection. The inside of the house is full of history with a good tour.
A walk to the Hercules statue is an absolute must and not too far. The view from the statue down over the chateau is incredible and really gives perspective.
The little kiosk outside does lovely crepes as well!

Photographing weddings at Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte in France is a truly exceptional experience.
The breathtaking 17th-century architecture and the magnificent formal gardens offer an unparalleled romantic setting.
The grandeur and elegance of the château, along with its beautifully manicured landscapes, provide a stunning backdrop for capturing timeless moments.
Each wedding at Vaux-le-Vicomte is like stepping into a fairy tale, making it an extraordinary location for any wedding photographer.

We visited Parc de Felines whilst on holiday, as our daughter loves cats - she was not disappointed, and neither were we! We saw so many beautiful animals, living in large enclosures with freedom to roam - we are very glad we got to experience seeing them all. It was a fascinating day. We also went to Monkey World, which was quieter and smaller, but ran out of time to see the parrots. The train ride and the 4D cinema at Parc de Felines are both well worth visiting. The staff were polite and helpful, despite us being far from fluent in French. Would recommend this place to anyone!

Park is well organised but the map given to visitors needs improving as it has a bunch of logos on it but no legend for those logos.
The train is quite good.
The tiger enclosure looks small and the tiger a bit sad. One of the smaller cats seemed a bit out of sorts and kept going around in circles. The lion enclosure is quite big which is nice to see but they are a big group.
The lemur enclosure was interesting. The guide told us there were about 7 lemurs that were excluded from the main group because they had been touched by visitors. You see in the enclosure the lemurs are friendly and walk around visitors to say hello and come right up close without barriers. One even jumped on a baby stroller so it is very easy to touch them. I was so stressed out the whole time someone would touch these curious lemurs and they would be pariahs. Why did the park not take this risk into account when designing the enclosure? You cannot trust all visitors to behave. There needs to be protection between visitors and the lemurs, like glass or a barrier.
The monkey enclosure was super cool I have to say. And I really enjoyed the talk.
We also went to the parrot park which is a 10 minute walk. It was quite nice.

A huge parc where you see animals playing and not always drowsy. They look fit and happy. Worth a visit. They even offer two parcs for the price of one. Easily done in one day.

I would definitely recommend this place for family trips.
There are a few food stands and one restaurant which have kid-friendly menu (sausages, hot dogs, waffles, ice cream, fries, etc). Of course there are toilets, which were quite messy when I visited this park.
Also, you can ride a train around the park every 30 minutes for free!
Another fun thing is the free 4D cinema, which is right next to the train station. The short movie was quite boring (for me, as an adult), but the kids liked it.
And of course, there are many felines. They are categorized by their original continents. And there are also lemurs :).
Overall, it was a pleasant visit.
PS: please!!! make more of mamul souvenirs! I love manuls, and I was quite disappointed about the lack of souvenirs with their faces.

An Amazing place to spend a weekend with kids or friends. You will have the chance to look to 28 Wild cats species in one place, the largest collection of wild cats in the world. The ride on the train will definitely put a smile on your face and give a small bump of adrenaline.

A very good alternative to a day at Euro Disney for those who don't like rides, yet in easy reach should you be dropping off those who do. We were impressed at the scale of the Parc - lots to see, and no hurry to do so. Recommended to see the goats early (buy the bag of popcorn but keep it very high, and expect them to calm down only when the bag itself is empty and eaten!), then take the train ride to get a sense of the scale of the place, plus some of the cats are best seen from the train. Then go explore on foot, taking time to locate the cats where they are well camouflaged. If needed, there is a train stop at the farthest edge from where you can let the train take the strain on the way back. The ride back has an educational element and (spoiler) some sounds effects. Especially noteworthy are the very cute Lemurs and the pride of lions at the far end of the park, which can be very well seen from the impressive walkway and towers. For those whose French is not yet perfect, there are very good bilingual signs to help the English speakers understand the detail. A great day out. PS: There is a related park focussed on monkeys, a short walk away: see photo for price list for visiting just the cats or monkeys too.

The big cats have very spacious places to stay. As a result, they are sometimes difficult to spot, but that adds to the safari feeling ;) Take the time to see everything, for younger kids it can be a lot of walking. There is also a train that allows you to see many of the big cats. To see the little cats you have to take the walking route. Overall it took us about 4 to 5 hours to see everything.
All animals have shelters where they can hide well if they want to, for this purpose houses and night pens have often been built for the small cats where you as a visitor have a good view. In the middle of the day they use these places to rest.
The cats I've seen looked healthy and showed no signs of stress or boredom.
On the signs at the enclosures you will find fun and useful information about the animal species and also the names of the animals that live in that enclosure.
In the petting zoo you can feed the goats popcorn, and you can also feed the carp that swim around the lemur island with this.

Great park, we have been here twice. It’s a quite natural parc without a lot of artificial stuff. Animals seems very healthy and relaxed here. Be careful if you want to see everything, taking the train is not the best option, and walking will require at least 3 hours to see everything. It’s very tiring.

Great zoo with plenty of space for the animals, the train ride is helpful to see the extent of the park as it passes the large enclosures.
There is a 2 Park / 1 day ticket available with the adjacent primate Zoo, and a 2 day ticket can be purchased for a small fee. Well worth a visit, just make sure you bring a camera with a long lens! :-)
Beautiful place, an incredible adventure in the nature visiting beautiful animals

The parc was not huge with animals walking freely but also guided tours/animations with kind and enthusiastic staff which made the ticket price seem so cheap. I totally recommend doing both parcs. Do not be judge and walk past the parrots before getting into the wild. Wear comfortable shoes and be ready to walk.

Took our ten-year-old and had a great time. Just outside Disney and a fun way to unwind and spend a half day.
Small, leafy theme park with attractions aimed at younger children such as slides & merry-go-rounds.
Lovely amusement park for kids and also babies. Great when you go on a sunny day. It gets crowded during weekends and bank holidays and the lines can get quite long. Be mindful as some of the rides requires a minimum height. The great thing is that you pay your entrance and you can enjoy unlimited ride. The entrance cost 13€ per adult and 10€ for under 1m05. The price of the entrance can vary (I paid 11€ for my entrance today).

Great for kids but don’t expect Disneyland for cheap. It’s very obviously not as polished and you can see people gardening and construction materials are lying around in some corners, things are being done in more of a family setting and not to create a perfect illusion.
Waiting times are very bearable and attractions are fine for the kids, food is a bit pricey for the kids but good value for adults.
60€ for a family of 5 is GREAT value though, so I’ll highly recommend this!

Great value, staff were nice. Lots of attractions even for my children who are less than 3 years old. Many of the attraction were “self service” meaning you start and stop the attraction yourself, age limitation were less strict which is great. As long as parents have common sense in what is adapted for their own children the attraction were available to younger age than what is mentioned. Spent half a day and our kids had lots of fun. Would definitely be back. Point negatives were that the food courts were rather expensive like any amusement parks, and the toilets were very old and dirty, and not adapted for baby or children (at least in the men’s bathroom)

The park itself is not bad, plenty of rides for kids. We would have a great day if it wasn't for wasps. They're everywhere and park management doesn't seem to be bothered by the fact that it is dangerous for kids. You can't sit for a picnic as you're immediately attacked by wasps. When you're waiting for a ride in queue wasps are swarming around. There's plenty of trash and food leftovers left by kids and their parents but we haven't seen any cleaning staff, and that attracts even more wasps. When we've approached a reception to indicate this fact the answer was rather rude as "we can't do anything about that, what do you want us to do?" That's totally unacceptable as an answer and yet another indicator of how they don't care about their clients.

On my visit there was a first-class show about the meeting points of "human" and "animal." Everything extremely well taken care of, clean and safe, and not crowded; and everything free of charge, including parking, the museum, and the park itself.

La Vallee Village is an upscale outdoor shopping center located outside Paris, accessible by train. It boasts over 100 luxury and premium brand outlet stores including popular brands such as Gucci, Coach, Lacoste, and D&G. The shopping center offers discounted prices compared to regular stores making it a go-to destination for shoppers looking for good deals. Although sometimes crowded, the mall is well-organized and very clean with a lovely layout that makes shopping enjoyable.
Top shopping centre. Fantastic bargains and combination of known brands and typical French stores. Great selection of food in the restaurant section however waiting times at McDonald’s were a bit too long, fortunately have a patient niece who was happy to wait for our food but witnessed a couple of families having nightmares. Suppose to be expected at busy times. Visited December 2023 on Boxing Day. Public transport to shopping centre was excellent, running on time and frequently at the very affordable price of €2.50. Although it was busy it didn’t feel overcrowded and customer service was good given the festive period.

Visiting this outlet is not worth, its quite far from paris, the train was not well organized it was super crowded , its few stations before Disney land , so the old train without air condition and no space to seat take one hour to reach there, all shops gonna close by 8pm. We didn’t find any good offer for the brands, there is no good restaurants around, its not worth to go there!

A dreamy haven for both the passionate shopper and the imaginative wanderer. From the moment you set foot, you're greeted with an assortment of luxury brands - think sumptuous fashion, exquisite jewelry, and top-tier cosmetics. There's an undeniable thrill in browsing through branded items, with each store inviting you in with the promise of an unparalleled find.
Yet, for those who've toured similar outlets across Europe, this one might not have the vastness you're accustomed to. Some brands even offer comparable deals in the city, which can be slightly disappointing for the keen bargain hunter. But where the outlet might falter in sheer variety, it compensates with atmosphere. Imagine intertwining your shopping spree with bursts of photography, capturing the whimsical design and layout, especially if you have kids in tow. Plus, with Disneyland's magic in close proximity, the entire location feels like an extension of the fantasy world.
To round off your shopping day, indulge in a delightful meal at one of the numerous eateries around. Whether you're yearning for a gourmet experience or a quick food truck bite, your palate will be pleased. A trip here is not just about shopping; it's an experience.

Lovely place to roam around, shop, or even just hang out. Gets really cold in the Ber months, bring hand warmers! Lots of seats and toilets. There are places to stop and eat which are not so expensive.
It rained when we came and it was bad since we didn't have umbrella and it's outdoors. Good that it stopped after a while. We stayed inside a store and shopped while waiting for the rain to stop. Staffs are friendly in most of the stores and all know at least enough English to serve you.
There are bigger, better deals and for more items when we went during December than there were during April, though still cheaper than SRP.
Plenty of parking. Watch out for thieves specially at the Val D'Europe mall. Many shopkeepers warned us and told us stories of phones getting grabbed and shopping bags missing.

Val d'Europe "La Vallée Village" - in an idealized "briarde" architecture, this special shopping centre contains more than 120 brands in clothing and other luxury, including 15 of major brands. Most important, with lots of goods for sale at discount prices. Also a few known fast food and some rare famous delicacy places to actually taste some nice European types of food. It's nice to visit the various shops, don't forget most things are luxury or top fashion items so don't think it's just very cheap but some items might fit in your budget. Treat yourself with a nice snack or drink, it could even be just a visit to an exclusive fashion and design exposition.

Definitely a must-visit for those who love to shop! It was a massive consolidation of branded stores in the village, some say it’s over 100 Brands - with the likes of famous franchises like Gucci, Prada, YSL commanding virtual queues to crowd control..
Prices here were definitely lower than those in the retail stores within the city centre, evident by the long queues in each store 😊 you could hardly spot a person without any loots from their visit to the shopping village!

Stellar designer outlet mall and village, just outside of Paris city centre.
I initially intended to visit by public transport, but the rail strikes made that impossible. Costs oddly similar via cab, if pre-booked, so I would advise that if you intend to buy a lot or have a flight/train to catch afterwards.
Upon entrance, suitcases or big bags are tagged. The service is efficient so no long wait times. The staff in stores are warm and welcoming, and it’s easy to breeze in and out with a luggage in tow, without any concern. The village hosts around 40-50 stores, so its easy to cover each and every one in a day. There’s an adjoining mall at the end, but I didn’t get a chance to visit. I believe that hosts mid-range to high street stores.

World famous Outlet Village. Good price. You need to take Rer A from Paris city centre to LaVallee village. Very close to Disneyland.

Shoppers Galore. Featuring luxury brands like Gucci, Burberry, Jimmy Choo and the list goes on and on. There's no Louis Vuitton though. The stores showcase a lot of products on discount as well as fresh stock.
The most popular brands have queues outside. There are a couple of restaurants and ice cream stores. The toilets are clean.
Also you get a 10.8% tax refund.

You can visit and buy new season and discounted products of luxury clothing and cosmetics stores. It is one of the important shopping points of Europe. It also has a significant advantage with its proximity to Disneyland.

So , it’s not worth to come here from Paris . It’s outlet but prices not that cheap. And well known companies like Nike GAP etc doesn’t have shop in this outlet.

La Vallée Village provided us with a delightful day of shopping. Weekdays are less crowded, making it perfect for leisurely browsing. The security measures at the entrance were reassuring, allowing us to shop without worries. There's a wide selection of brands to choose from. We'll definitely be returning here for more shopping trips.

Average. The factory outlet has like 120 brands for you to shop in which is supposedly enough but it wasn’t. I dont know why did they choose these brands instead of the others but they did not even have Nike and Adidas. The discounts were also average… none of it was like very eye catching or anything.
The factory outlet does have a good layout and it is also clean.
Maybe you can try to visit the place but do not come with high expectations of amazing discounts and that you can find all the brands you want.

Prices are INCREDIBLE compared to North America !! Some high end designers even 50% off or more ! Got a beautiful Gucci for 65% off retail and the QR code / online queue much more comfortable than physically waiting in the rain.
SEA LIFE Val d'Europe is a family-friendly destination showcasing an array of sea creatures. With group packages and play areas available, it offers an enjoyable experience for all ages. Visitors can witness penguins and rays being fed while exploring the well-planned layout that is easy to navigate. The aquarium features a variety of exhibits including informative talks on seahorses by knowledgeable staff members.
Found this place by accident, wife and I both love the aquariums in the UK so went and had a look.
Staff were brilliant, even had a member of staff take my wife aside and have a really in depth talk about the sea horses (thought I'd lost my wife to another man)
Saw penguins and rays being fed too.
All of it fantastic; especially with being able to leave and come back as much as we wanted during the day.
Must have been about 3-4 hours in total although you could rush and go around in 60 minutes.

Awesome aquarium, would recommend.
The shop was nice too, though I was overcharged by ten Euros when I gave the lady at the till 40€ for a 31€ purchase, and then found a 1€ to make it easier for her to give me change. When I got none and disputed it, she insisted I had only given her 30€, which made no sense as she was already completing the transaction before I gave her the 1€. No effort made to double check, just very dismissive. However, the lovely lady at the entrance desk, and the man with the dressed up penguin were very nice, so overall customer service was good

Had free time before checking into the hotel, so I decided to spend an afternoon here with my wife, 6 yo and 3 yo. It was really engaging and immersive. All the staff comfortably switched between French English, and most had some Spanish too. It was around 80 euro for 4 of us. Massive range of fish and sea creatures. Really interesting emphasis on litter in our oceans, which needs to be highlighted more prominently. Displays are informative and show the outcomes if we don't change.
Highlights were seeing the massive turtles in the big tank where the sharks are, and watching them being fed too so close. The penguin area is really interactive with loads of info and ways to view them and figure out who's who. Special mention has to go to Vito who took the time to show my girls the crabs and star fish in the interactive tank and had some really good stories and anecdotes related to the creatures found in rock pools. Another interesting part is the shark exhibit, where they allude to the Megolodon and compare to great white sharks from today.
Most importantly, all tanks were clean, good size to fish ratio, and fish seemed healthy and well cared for.

Kids (2&6) loved it. Spent all afternoon there and got to see most of the feedings. well planned layout and easy to follow. Had a coupon and spent child price for an adult ticket. The gift shop isn't too pricy.

I think the right score is 3,5.
there is nothing wrong with it, but it is small.
there are two may attraction ( in my opinion) Penguins and the sharks.
other than that it is just small aquariums
something good is that you can go out an enter again, so you can do some shopping and get some food during your visit

Cool place to see, but to understand what you see you really have to pay attention and read all the descriptions over there to really comprehend what's going on with the sealife. Unfortunately the majority just see the colorful fishes and the penguins and that's it, in and out in 10 minutes...
The tanks are veryy cool and I think they are pretty whell done, but the penguin tank it's quite sad, maybe in the future they will do something about it.

Very nice place for humans. Not great for all sea creatures. Yet, to make kids enthusiastic about sea life this is a good place.
The staff is friendly and there's lots to see. It's not huge, but good for a few hours if you're interested. Maybe one if you're not really.
There is some interesting interactive things to do as well. Not many toilets (1 location) but the staff will direct you there in a shortcut every time.
If there's a heat wave, like right now, this is a good place to be. It's dark and cool. The feedings were very busy and only really interesting if you speak French (and there suddenly aren't many squealing kids around to scream over the explanation).
For this heatwave we enjoyed our time and coolness here. It was entertaining and interesting. A little focus on plastic pollution is nice but could be done better.
The floor was clean but the very well done decorations are hung with dust and dirt. This place is in dire need of a good cleaning.

Much like its counterparts, SeaLife Paris offers visitors an immersive journey into the world's oceanic depths. However, this centre stands apart with an innovative app that employs advanced image recognition technology. This tool allows visitors to instantly identify various fish species! A simple scan with your smartphone yields detailed information about the fish you're observing, thus enriching the understanding and appreciation of marine biodiversity. Additionally, the app provides interactive educational content, making it an ideal companion for a visit to SeaLife Paris.

I loved this place. I had to wait 14 hours for my connecting flight in Paris so I went there to meet the octopus specifically, but I also enjoyed the rest of the place, from the design to the feeding events and particularly the interactions with the staff. Among the stuff, Florian deserves my special thanks for guiding my interactions with the octopus and holding a long interesting conversation with me about this fabulous animals. One of the best zoo/aquarium experiences of my life!

Popular retail complex with 2 floors of brand-name shops & eateries, plus an aquarium & health club.

Lovely layout and so many shops and dining options plus the hypermarket.
Good for walk and shopping as addition to the outlet.

Deceptively big inside with 100s of shops, cafes, restaurants, even SeaLife and a gym. Got a taxi to and from, which were freely available. It's a very secure feeling. The ice cream and doughnut place right in the middle is absolutely fabulous 👌 The decorations around the whole centre are amazing, in particular the starry sky outside Penneys (primark). Great mix of high Street names, some more exclusive brands and what looked to be local traders all combined together. Only got to spend a little time here but I would definitely like to return.

As someone who enjoys the simple pleasures of shopping and dining, Val d'Europe Mall in Paris is a nice mall for me.
Whether I'm stocking up on groceries at Auchan or exploring the latest fashion trends at Primark and H&M, every visit is an enjoyable experience especially on weekdays.
The seamless connection to La Vallee Village thé Premium Outlets is a bonus, offering premium deals on designer goods without the hassle.
And when it's time to unwind, Sealife provides a fascinating escape into the underwater world, while restaurants like Paul and McDonald's offer satisfying meals.
Val d'Europe Mall is more than just a shopping center – it's a haven for leisure and indulgence in the heart of outskirts Paris.

Centre Commercial Val d'Europe, located next to La Vallée, is a large indoor shopping mall where you can easily spend the entire day. With free parking, it's undoubtedly the best option in the region. The mall offers a diverse range of shops and amenities, ensuring there's something for everyone. Whether you're shopping for fashion, electronics, or enjoying a meal at one of the many restaurants, this mall has it all. It's a convenient and enjoyable destination for locals and tourists alike.

Val d'Europe is about hour drive from Paris CDG Airport or 1hr30mins on the RER B from CDG connecting to RER A going to Marne laVallee and alighting at Val d'Europe stop. The mall is less than 100m from the station.
Recommend you have your game plan in place according to your budget. So the main mall has over 200 shops under roof while the "Village" has about 100+ shops outside of the mall. Here, @the village you will find most of your top luxury brands except LV and some other high end ones.
The Mall and the Village shopping Center are same owners as Bicester Shopping outlet UK only you have netter deals here being Europe.
For International travellers be sure to take your passport with you so you can claim for the VAT refund when you exit from Schengen Zone. There is a threshold value below which you cannot claim for VAT refund. VAT refund is about 12.5% so its quite a handsome value if you rack up a number of those luxury items.
There is a good choice of culinary delights either in the mall or outside in the village so it's quite good.

Beautiful, spacious and, above all, a shopping center designed in 19th-century Parisian architecture. It is covered, but with many glass roofs where daylight determines part of the atmosphere. Bad weather doesn't get much chance here, there really is something for everyone here. Parking is free in the huge parking lots, the paths in the mall are wide and the various themed areas are each unique. The "Place Toscane" is also special, with a bit of luck this outlying area gives the idea of a holiday on an Italian square with a wink. And as an extra to the visit, it is nice to look around in the adjacent outlet shopping area "La Valée Village". This outdoor area is indeed set up like a village where luxury fashion houses and some special French delicacies bring that accessible chic and culinary pleasure.
Disneyland Paris is an entertainment hub that comprises of family-friendly rides, shows and costumed characters. The complex also includes hotels for a complete experience. Visitors can take advantage of weekday visits for photogenic opportunities while weekend visits offer more fun activities. Purchasing tickets in advance provides access to special offers, promotions and costumes for children and seniors. Easy transportation options are available through Google maps or other sources.
What a beautiful place to have fun.
If you go on a weekday, you will still be able to take a lot of good photos. If you go on weekends there will be more fun activities.
In terms of buying tickets, you should buy tickets in advance to enjoy special offers or promotions or dresses for children and the elderly.
Public transportation is also very convenient, you just need to search on Google map or ask anyone to go here very easily.

First of all this is a really great park, I visited twice and every time it is like a dream come true. Excellent decorations, extraordinary and fast rides, literally one of the best places on earth no joke. Anyone can find something in this park that will blow their mind and be their thing. Anything in there is possible.
Now the part that I am very unfortunate to write about, since my first visit there, something huge happened. They cancelled the fast-pass. To those who don't know it's a free way of "scheduling" yourself on a later hour so you can enter within 10 MAX. What they did instead is crazy (understandable because of financial reasons), you can pay 8€ per ride in order to get in quickly OR pay 1 7 0 € for a fast pass in multiple rides, that's wrong! So what? Now I can enjoy the park fully by paying almost twice the price of a ticket! Queues on a very normal weekday in September were between 40-70 minutes per ride, imagine wasting 4 hours just on standing! A not so financially stable family that would dream about coming here would waste a third of the day of a very expensive ticket on standing???
Well, I guess that is what helps Disneyland financially but that's devastating. I enjoyed it anyway and recommend you to visit and experience a one in a lifetime experience.

Fantastic experience, except restaurants and toilets are very bad and dirty. Parc is so clean, very impressive.
Lots of guests and queues, but opportunity to buy fast track will make you skip the lines.
Brings lots of snacks for the queues, if you have small kids.
You can bring your own lunch and soft drinks to save money, there are benches where you can enjoy your brought food. And believe me the food there isn’t good at all so bring something with you like grab and go.
Download the Disneyland app to have a map on your phone, where you can easily filter, whether you are looking for a toilet, a show or restaurant.
In the Disney app you can also see waiting times, so it isn’t necessary to download the waiting time app. I recommend that you do research in advance, so you have an idea of what you would like to see. For instance there was 90 min waiting for having a picture with a princess.
If you only have one day, I read that you should go for the Disneyland park. But I see why, they recommend that you use several days, as you spend a lot of time standing in lines.

Me and my partner loved every minute of it, soon as you walk through the gates you get this overwhelming feeling of excitement. My partner who is not a big Disney fan was surprised how much he enjoyed himself. The food was really good, especially the hot dogs and big pretzels!
We went on many rides, the lines for the rides weren’t overly long. October is a great time to go!

Disneyland Paris is like stepping into a magical world. It's a place where every corner is filled with fun and excitement. The rides are thrilling and make you feel like you're part of a story. The colorful parades and shows make your eyes sparkle, and meeting your favorite Disney characters is like a dream come true.
The park is big and beautiful, with lots of places to explore, like castles and fairy tale lands. The food is yummy, with treats that look like they came from a storybook. It is not just a park, it's a place where happy memories are made.

7th trip to Disney Paris, and I still love it. ❤️ The park is so beautiful well maintained the staff work tirelessly to keep it so tidy. Our favourite time to visit is November with the Christmas decorations, but this January trip was dry clear and beautiful. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The meal we had at the ratatouille restaurant was wonderful. I honestly can't find and fault. There was some rides down for maintenance but to be expected in the quiet season. We will be back!

Simply an amazing place. If you want to see a significant part of the park when you arrive, you should reserve at least 1 full day. If you want to participate in all activities, I recommend you get a priority pass. Otherwise, you'll be waiting too long in line. Be aware that you will be standing in line for at least 1 hour for popular activities. Pass priority tickets have separate entrances and you won't have to wait more than 10-15 minutes. Don't think it's a place for kids, there are more adults than kids and you will have a great experience.

Great couple of days at Disneyland Paris. You can easily do both parks over 2 days. I can recommend the Tower of Terror, Thunder Mountain, Phantom Manor, Ratatouille ride and Pirates of the Caribbean. If you suffer from motion sickness I would seriously avoid Star Wars hyperspace mountain, I have never felt so sick from a ride before! It is just too quick for the short sharp bursts and your head gets rattled round a bit between the shoulder pads. April was a good month to visit and didn’t have to wait long for the rides. The park was clean, plenty of places for food and drink but it is just the same food repeated in the different cafes. Merchandise is pricey so make sure you save up!! For the park tickets I used a website called Attraction Tickets who were cheapest, easy to order and got them to download to my phone within 10 minutes. Hotel - we stayed at Adagio Serris Val d Europe which is only a 15 min walk or free shuttle buses stop outside. I will definitely be staying at this hotel again and the surrounding area is brilliant and includes a shopping mall and designer outlet! There is direct transport from centre of Paris and then from park to airport. You couldn’t ask for more!

Mehhh….
For starters what I can say is, the lines were extremely disorganized when it came to entering the park. We purchased a one day ticket and boy I felt like it was their first day doing this. Anyway once inside it was beautiful and “magical.” The employees were not so polite and felt like they just wanted to do their job and go home.
The app was such a huge help and I also paid for a few rides premier access. (So completely worth skipping the lines to some rides.) The parades were very cool and I think that was my kids favorite thing at Disney. Be prepared to pick a spot at least an hour ahead to get a good view, as people start lining the street very early prior to the parades. If you forget your portable charging box (as I did) they have a charging room by the buzz light year ride. It’s actually inside of the location where the buzz light year restaurant is.
We brought a few snacks and drinks in our backpacks, but I also purchased several meals and desserts. I personally felt like the food wasn’t that expensive and was edible especially when you have been walking around the park all day. Amazing food, no, good food for hungry people, yes.
Overall I can cross this off my list and say we visited. Would I return again, absolutely not.

Despite it being very busy, I had such an amazing experience. Every cast member I interacted with was delightful. Everybody seems so happy to be there. We went on Monday and Tuesday (no holiday) and queues varied from 20-50 minutes, which was quite alright. Even if you're not doing rides, the park is great to walk around in. There's always something to see and you're really never bored.
I had some very bad interactions with guests, they can be quite inconsiderate and rude at times. But that is of course not the park's fault. Be prepared to encounter some selfish people though 😅
Prices were high, as was to be expected. But I must say that some things were strangely priced. I purchased a medium sized plush for €26 when there were minis retailing for €20, to give an example. The food was surprisingly good! Nothing to write home about, but I didn't expect this great quality.
I was very sad to return home and I'm already considering booking my next trip!

We had booked a 2-day ticket for both parks in advance, then spent a full day at Disneyland and a full day at Studios. Beautiful and quite exhausting. Good preparation is important - snacks, water, comfortable shoes and sunscreen. Plan your time wisely, it can gey very exhausting. Food and drinks are available in small snack bars or restaurants (don't forget to make reservations), prices for them are quite high.
There are a lot of stores with souvenirs, so plan a little extra money.
Queues at the rides can be very long, sometimes up to and over an hour. We occasionally bought the paid Premier Access to skip waiting time. A quick option can also be the Single Ride entrance, you don't sit next to your partner, but you don't have to wait in line as long.
After 9 p.m., the queues get much shorter. If you don't necessarily want to watch the fireworks every night (or are satisfied with back rows), it's the best option to wait in line only for a short time.
Make nice memories and have fun!

Disneyland Paris is a magical wonderland that exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I walked through its iconic gates, I was transported to a world of enchantment and joy.
The attention to detail throughout the park is truly remarkable. Whether it's the dazzling Cinderella Castle or the whimsical Main Street, USA, every corner of Disneyland Paris is a visual feast. The park's cleanliness and well-maintained grounds add to the overall charm.
Now, let's talk about the attractions – they are nothing short of spectacular. From thrilling rides like Space Mountain to beloved classics like It's a Small World, there's something for everyone. The quality and creativity behind each experience are evident, and it's easy to see why Disneyland Paris is a top-tier theme park.
The staff at Disneyland Paris are the real magic-makers. They are friendly, helpful, and genuinely committed to creating memorable experiences. Whether you're interacting with characters, asking for directions, or dining at one of the park's restaurants, the staff's dedication shines through.
Disneyland Paris isn't just for kids; it's a place where people of all ages can relive their favorite Disney moments and create new memories. It's a world where dreams come true, and I can't recommend it enough. If you're considering a visit, prepare to be enchanted and amazed at Disneyland Paris – it's a journey you won't want to end!

The best place for family adventure! It is our second visit of this amazing park. In my opinion it is better to take your kids about 5 years, so you can fully ride on the best attractions in the park and get high emotions of being together with your kids. In the end of September it was really comfort weather, but so crowded. So for the future it is better to buy priority access at least on several attractions.
All staff work on a high level, they are really doing their job great!
Absolutely we'll be back in future!

This place is amazing! I really enjoyed it, although I'm an adult. It brings all my childhood memories back! One day is certainly not enough to discover the whole park!

Brilliant trip! Two adults and two kids (3 yo & 6 yo). Prepare to wait an hour or more for popular rides. Characters don't walk around like they used to. They had session times they entered for photos. Mickey Mouse was 90 mins at one point.
Xmas is magical there and the parade is not to be missed. Just wrap up warm. Expect to burn a hole in your pocket.
Toad in the hole did fish and chips. Very good food for the price and pretty good service as well. Certainly need two days for one park - one day to queue for the rides and another go walk around it all.
Must do - it's a small world and Peter Pans flight.

Key rides were absolutely amazing, especially when you are travelling with an Autistic child... They really were very helpful and understanding. The only disappointment was the merchandise shops..
Gutted as I wanted to buy my daughter something special for her birthday, she wasn't thrilled either by the selection.
Walt Disney area was great and so was Disney Park... Not cheap but really enjoyed ourselves

After being in Tokyo and Orlando it was not not impressive. The Sleeping Beauty Castle was very nice and seemed refreshed much the park seemed in need of a bit of cleaning up and touch up. Overly crowded. No chance to get reservations for a sit down restaurant a week in advance and the lines were between 45-90 mins. Just not a value added experience. When we have to line up over an hour in advance for a show this is not worth the money. The village is way past it's prime and needs the construction that was ongoing badly. Recommend waiting at least a year before coming. Two day should be enough but the line delays were crazy. Positive note. Staff is always amazing and the night drone show and castle display were the highlight of the trip. Find your piece of asphalt early....

It's a beautiful park with a lot of attractions. A lot of attractions have a long waiting time. For kids under 3 years old not a lot to do or see, I think. If you want to save money bring food from home. The app is very nice to know where to go and how long to wait on the lines. We were there on a day during the week in March. The end of the day it was raining a lot. There are also stroller to rent. I recommend buy tickets before and if possible sleep there one night for the whole attractions to be worth complete.

First time I’ve been to a Disney theme park and I was thoroughly impressed. The park is kept meticulously clean and the build quality of the rides and theme park is the highest I’ve ever seen.
We paid for the VIP tour and our tour guide Virginie was amazing. She managed to cram in many rides and shows for us in the one day. She was also able to book a restaurant reservation for us despite it showing as fully booked on the website. I highly recommend the premier pass or vip tour because the lines are really long.
The park is crowded but manageable. Most of the park is suitable for young kids. They have a lot of family friendly rides. They don’t have as many rides for adults. The park is very stroller friendly with many ramps for use.

So far we've been to 3 different Disney Parks and this is our second favorite! The design of the park in some ways is way prettier than the park's in the U.S.
They have two options of pre-paid fast passes if you'd like.
It's pretty easy to get to from Paris.
Tips:
*Make sure to check out the Dragon under the castle 😉
*Food: If you didn't know - Disney parks are expensive! Yes, Even the food. a tiny pizza, salad, drink and ice cream cost 16€ The food in the park disappointed us. In the US, food is a big part of the Disney experience. I read online that they have Dole Whip, but they don't. We looked! We were very frustrated since no one warned us that even though the park closes at 11:00 p.m., the stores and kiosks with food and snacks close at 20:00-21:00!!!! We found ourselves looking for food. It was very upsetting.

Very nice place . Kids and adults will love it.
Very big waiting times for popular attraction 30-40 minutes so you need more than one day to visit Disney park . I recommend using the app to check waiting time before going to an attraction and also to find it faster . Lot’s of restaurants and shops so you will find everything you need .

Disneyland Paris is truly a magical destination that exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we entered the park, we were transported to a world of enchantment and wonder. The attention to detail in every aspect, from the stunningly designed attractions to the friendly and accommodating staff, was outstanding. The parades and shows were nothing short of spectacular, leaving us with unforgettable memories. The food options were diverse and delicious, catering to every taste. What sets Disneyland Paris apart is its ability to make everyone, young and old, feel like a kid again. It's a place where dreams come true, and we can't wait to return.

Disneyland is a magical Place, it transmit excitement and happiness to both children and adults. You can visit it whenever, although I have to admit, it’s a bit better during the summer season when days are a bit sunnier and you can stay for longer (closing time 11 pm). There are a few queues, for both the entrance and the games. Just have patience and enjoy the cool scenes that are all over the park. Waiting time for games can go from 5 minutes to 1 hour, you can either check the app to see what games have the least waiting time, or you can get the pass that let’s you skip the line (the ticket is way more expensive). We only stayed for one day and I believe it’s enough to visit the park. There are lots restaurants and souvenirs shops. You can even buy a pop corn basket, which you can refill at the pop corn stands. Most of the games are very chill and for children, but there are a few that are fun and thrilling. If you are staying in Paris, there is a train from Gare the Lyon that takes you exactly at the entrance of the park. Overall I recommend at all ages. Children have fun and we adults enjoy the feeling of being children again, at least for one day :).

The rides were fun. The lines were long. I also saw purple guy there. I got a cowboy themed drink. It had ice cream. I liked the firework show the best, the crowd was so full though and I am tiny so I couldn’t see that well.

Great experience, the whole family loved it.
Make sure you take good walking shoes as we walked upto 20 miles per day.
plenty of rides for all ages and shows to entertain you.
Street parades are fun and the lights and fireworks show are well worth staying late for.

I really like this place, when I go in the spring the weather is a bit cold but the sun is beautiful. The wait was a bit long because many families traveled. Stay until 11pm to prepare to watch the fireworks. I was very happy🙇🏻♀️🥺

It was nice experience. Great place to visit.
Roller coasters are not crazy at all. Most of them are designed for younger customers. Liked the Hollywood Hotel lift.
Huge queues for the coasters.
Nice theatrical performances.
The food inside is super expensive.
The souvenir shop on any corner.
The train station is located literally on the park area. 9 minutes 1 stop from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport.
The park itself is super friendly for families. It was nice to be in such the environment!
The night show was absolutely stunning. Highly recommended!!

Amazing experience! The magic there is real! If you get a day pass for 2 parks you can visit Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studio - you can enter after 45 minutes again as many times as you like during that day, from one park to another! Entrance to the shops and Disney Village is free - you have a middle area where you can shop at Disney Store even without having bought a ticket! I found that helpful!
The dancing parades they do are so lovely! Will definitely visit again! ❤️✨🧚🦄

Although the park was really busy all the time we had a fast pass to skip the queues, and it was worth it. All the rides were awesome especially hotel of terrors, avengers flight force, space mountain and thunder mountain. We managed to meet a lot of characters and saw some parades. Would recommend to all ages, we really enjoyed ourselves

Disneyland will forever be a place of immense joy for me. I had the absolute best time there with friends. The staff were great in making sure the paths were as save as possible after snow hit. The new drone light show was unbelievable and it was just great fun!

We visited here on New years Eve. For a family experience, i would highly recommend it. However, it's not without its drawbacks.
Firstly, it is a hell of a lot of walking when here from open to close. There is a lot of standing for queues, so make sure to have comfy clothes and shoes on. It can be cold in winter months, so bring a coat that you can easily remove if you get too hit in a queue.
Make sure to prepare for paying a lot for food or sneak your own in. They do tell you no picnics allowed in side the park. But it is easy to stash sandwiches in.
People queue up for events hours early, so either be prepared to do the same or get a bad spot for them, i.e. parades, fireworks, and so on.
Rides are not adult centric, so there is not a big adrenaline boost from this park. The park is not for that, really it's for the kids. They will love the experience, and two of the coasters are great fun, thunderloop, and hyperspace.
Parking is easy enough, costs a pretty penny, though.
The fireworks show was fantastic, as was the new years ones too.
Have a great time if you do go!

Spent a day at The Happiest Place On Earth!
I visited on a Sunday, early April. The queues weren't crazy, plenty of rides we could get on within 10 minutes (pirates of the Caribbean, Cars, etc).
The Disneyland app is well worth downloading. Live updates for queue times, the map is very useful too.
Plenty of food options (including several local French cuisines).

Veel commercie, Eten en drinken en gadgets..
Shows en attracties afgelast, gesloten voor onderhoud, of omwille van weeromstandigheden... Geen idee. Lange wachttijden, die aangegeven zijn maar niet altijd correct, voor een attractie dat van (zeer) korte duur is. Zeer kostelijk.
Je moet goed te been zijn, lange wandelafstanden.
Het park wordt proper onderhouden door het personeel. En ze wensen je een goededag, bonjour.
Je kan het park gemakkelijk in een halve dag aflopen zonder attracties.
Security aan inkom. En in het park. Veilig.

Parc Walt Disney Studios is one of the two theme parks that make up Disneyland Paris, featuring areas dedicated to movie and TV related attractions. It may not be as large as the main park, however it offers rides more suitable for younger children such as the popular Cars ride. The Hollywood Tower and Ratatouille are considered to be two of the main attractions in this park, which boasts a beautiful setting and aims to create an atmosphere reminiscent of Walt Disney's production studios.
Not as big as the main park but I found this to be better for my 2 year old as the rides were more to his liking and he really enjoyed the Cars ride, he had to go on it countless times. Unfortunately the section where they did the stunt show wasn’t open which was a shame as my son would have loved that show but he enjoyed it nonetheless.

This is not my first amusement park and I have something to compare. If we consider that this park is 30 years old, then a lot can be done indulgence. Compared to Disney World in Orlando, this Disneyland in Paris is nowhere near.
There are a lot of old attractions, with old chairs, against which the head beats very hard during the attraction. I think that for children under 10-12 years old it can still be interesting. The attraction Flight to the Moon, converted into Star Wars, looks unconvincing and ridiculous. We visited 2 parks here. Here are the attractions that are definitely worth a visit: Hotel Hollywood, Ratatouille, Cars, Star Tour, Pirates, RC Racer, Riverboat, Parachute drop.
Convenient location, right next to the metro station. There are fountains with drinking water in the park.
Park security is good. We had a Swiss folding knife with us, which was not allowed at the entrance. We left it in the luggage room at the metro station.

Great park. I love the Avengers Campus. There's lots to do here and you can dodge the queues using the app. It gets quiet here in the evening so aim for the bigger rides then.
Donna — Google review
We had booked a 2-day ticket for both parks in advance, then spent a full day at Disneyland and a full day at Studios. Beautiful and quite exhausting. Good preparation is important - snacks, water, comfortable shoes and sunscreen. Plan your time wisely, it can get very exhausting. Food and drinks are available in small snack bars or restaurants (don't forget to make reservations), prices for them are quite high.
There are a lot of stores with souvenirs, so plan a little extra money.
Queues at the rides can be very long, sometimes up to and over an hour. We occasionally bought the paid Premier Access to skip waiting time. A quick option can also be the Single Ride entrance, you don't sit next to your partner, but you don't have to wait in line as long.
After 9 p.m., the queues get much shorter. If you don't necessarily want to watch the fireworks every night (or are satisfied with back rows), it's the best option to wait in line only for a short time.
We loved that you can meet your superhero in person, either with booked appointments or random walking in the street.
Make nice memories and have fun!

Amazing park, they are currently constructing a lot so that does decrease the experience a little. I would suggest waiting for the construction to be finished.
They are also building Frozen Land. Nice to see that this park is finally getting some love from our American friends.

It is not the main park but in my opinion it contains two of the main attractions of Disneyland Paris, the Hollywood Tower and the Ratatouille.
The park is very beautiful and the atmosphere it intends to create is that we are in the Walt Disney Studios.
You can easily visit in the morning and in the afternoon go to the main park.
Tony Zekinha — Google review
Very nice experience.
I suggest to buy the fast line pass. Because the lines and amount of people are huge. You can only enjoy 4 or 5 of the games because of the crouds. The least game to wait for without the pass is 60 minutes to 70 minutes. I regret not having the pass.

A lot of thoughts on details and very friendly staff through and through.
Great for all little guests and Disney fans. For everyone else also great to see at least once.
You feel the magic as characters walking through the park show as much attention to adults as to the little ones. Everyone is special here!

Great short weekend getaway!! A couple of things:
1. You must buy your tickets in advance
2. It’s not too big and not too small
3. Disneyland Paris has their own champagne and it is a must try for all adults!!!
4. Wear good walking shoes because you’ll be walking a ton!
5. The food and snacks are a must try treat
6. It’s mostly in French (for people that are curious) very little things have other language options
One of the happiest places on earth!!!

I'm a huge Disney fan and have been to both US parks multiple times, so it bothers me to not give 5 stars. The reason for withholding one is due to the size. It's a very small park and you can do everything in about a half day. Plans to add lands and expansions will help. What is there is really nice and the Avengers coaster is a lot of fun. It's a nice park, just not one you'll spend a while day at.
Chris Bern — Google review
It was great to re-live my childhood while being here. What astonished me was attention to detail and absolute perfection in terms of atmosphere. Few rides broke down, which is understandable. I had only one problem with the park, and it's a big one: despite the astounding atmosphere, I was quickly and often disillusioned by cash-grab attempts at every turn. Official merchandise is ridiculously expensive to a point where I wouldn't even consider buying anything. Queues at every ride kept reminding me that this is the punishment for not paying an additional 200€ for Premier pass. I would have definitely left more money in the park if everything wasn't so ridiculously expensive.

I visited this park in November and in January.
I can say it's the worst disneypark. I wouldn't recommend you pay for it unless you get it by your stay in the hotel.
The attractions are not well mentioned, and you can do everything you like in the afternoon.
There are only 2 attractions that are worth to visit, these are ratatouille and the Hollywood tower. Spiderman can be fun, but I can't say it's something special. They avengers rollercoaster is not a piece of art, but it can be fun to do (for the coaster itself and the iron man inside).
I really did not like the crush coaster. It feels like the biggest self insult of disney. Their are like 2 themed areas inside the coaster. The rest of the coaster is half black and absolutely not disney quality but more that of a cheap park.
What about the Marvel extension? It's.. pretty underwhelming, all I can say.
That you can see some heroes is fun. Also, the Avengers rollercoaster looks fun at night.
The park feels like a full identity crisis. I also hope that this will be solved with future extensions.
But for now... the park is only worth visiting for the shows, ratatouille and hollywood tower.

LOVED. Definitely buy tickets in advance. I would also really recommend buying the rapid pass because I was waiting in line for so long. It is okay without it... Just make sure to have a charger with you. Also!! Bring a backpack. When you go on rides, you will have to put your belongings behind your legs so the bigger the better.
The lush, formal gardens of Luxembourg Gardens are a popular attraction in the Saint Germain des Pres neighborhood of Paris. The garden is home to many statues and monuments on pedestals, as well as well-manicured gardens with trees in ornate patterns. The park is a delightful place to relax and take in the sights and sounds of Paris.
Had such a great experience here! Late Sept 2021 and the weather was perfect. Not too hot and not too many people. Huge area to explore and spend minutes to hours people watching and enjoying the gardens and grounds. Tons of public chairs available throughout the gardens.

Majestic gardens in Central Paris, full of people enjoying the beautiful flowers and fountains, and viewing countless epic statues like the ring of French queens going back hundreds of years. Kids will love the playgrounds and renting little sailboats to float in the central fountain. Great place to explore.

Very nice tranquil spot to chill out in. The small pond with toy sailing boats to rent is really good to watch. Its a bit of a shame however that you cannot sit on any of the grass, and a lot of the park is dust/gravel. There are loads of chairs dotted around the park to sit on though and the palace is a good sight.

It's a beautiful place to walk around. I loved the playground, it was beautiful and my son loved it. The only thing is that you must pay to enter the playground and they charge kids and adults but on the other hand, it has bathrooms and the place looks very clean.

Beautiful... had a lovely picnic there. the statues were very interesting. I enjoyed reading all of the information about them. My son and I did almost a little treasure hunt, looking for various statues.
It was a bit on the dusty side because of the driveways but I'm thinking it's because the weather was so dry over the summer.

I would almost change my favorite place to stay in Paris to be right next to this garden! It is a perfect place to walk, sit, relax, play, take a class, have a meeting, eat, drink...the list goes on and on! You will find plenty of seating and paths spread throughout, lots of entrances/exits, toilets (clean, in our experience), and snack stands. Truly a perfect place to spend an hour or afternoon!

This garden is breathtaking. My husband and I briefly visited but the wind and rain came in so we went back to our hotel. We only had limited time in Paris but we made a point of going back. Our absolutely favourite part is the Medici Fountain. We are huge readers and I cannot begin to explain the PEACE found at this fountain. There are chairs all around filled with people of all ages sketching, painting, or reading. We made this our reading spot the following day when the weather was better and it was such a break from the hustle and bustle of the city. It is also located away from the rest of the gardens so it was quiet and oh so relaxing. I would recommend EVERYONE visit - there is a stunning palace, mini boats to rent and race, the majestic fountain as well as these beautiful trees for a lovely photo op. The whole place is stunning. Worth the visit :)

A very peaceful place. I bet this place in spring or summer is very crowded. Loved the view, and the peacefulness, fresh air. It is near a train station so you don't have to walk a lot to reach it.

Lovely place for a stroll. Beautiful gardens and fountains. Crepes and pastries available on the garden side. On the park side, you do have to pay for each kids activity, even the playground. 3 euros per kid and 1 per adult. Playground was great though. There’s a manual merry go round that my kids loved. 2 euros per ride. The little snack bar was meh and very pricey. Free sand boxes were good.

Excellent place for spending wonderful time in the gardens, cool by the little reservoir, quiet but busy, not in a bad way. Quality time spent in between work-tasks. Suitable either for leisure or a quick relaxing break during a busy day in Paris. There are plenty of interesting sights in the neighborhood and in the general area, so you can combine a walking tour of the city with a visit to the Jardin du Luxembourg. Strongly recommended.

The 13th-century Notre Dame Cathedral is famous for its spire, gargoyles, and intricate Gothic architectural details. The cathedral was almost destroyed in a 2019 fire but some of the buildings that survived include the South Rose Window and archaeological crypt.
Breathtaking architecture as always. I have visited the cathedral before the fire and currently after it. It is really sad to get to see how the fire impacted it you cannot go inside anymore and all you can see is the outside of it now. Still beautiful and worth looking into it from the outside
Currently under construction. All of our hearts broke with the tragic huge fire, but we have hope that the cathedral will be back. The plan is to restore in the 19th Century design, and at this time is is under construction. Lots of work around. Heartening to come and witness the rebirth.
MariuS — Google review
This is by far, one of the most beautiful and dazzling cathedrals I have ever visited, maybe also because of all the story behind it. The architecture is amazing and just being there is an out of this world experience. Everything gels near this spot and there are so many options for the visitors nearby to go as well.
I had the opportunity to visit short before the fire in 2019 and I could see it inside and from the top too. I hope they finish restoring it sometime soon as nothing beats going inside it and seeing Paris from its top tower.
So, I hope to come back soon. I recommend this visit 100% 🙌🏼

This church within the heart of Paris is an absolute must-see. Here, you'll experience amazing Gothic architecture and history.

This famous cathedral is simply impressive, even if it is half covered by scaffolding and is closed to the public. We enjoyed walking around the outside and reading all the informative signs.

A lot people of visit this place although everyone knows it’s currently being rebuilt again after the fire incident(couple of years ago). There are some really nice places around and nice restaurants around from kebabs, Indian and Middle Eastern and Turkish etc. Perfect place for lunch, snack and dinner. just across the bridge there’s famous Shakespeare and company cafe. Really busy place to be honest. I would love to spend few hours around this place. If you are using big bus then there’s a stop just across the street.

Even though the Cathedral was closed, due to the work of restoration, still there are different displays all around the church that show you the inside as well as detailing the different works necessary to bring the cathedral to its original glory.

Beautiful Parisian site to see while visiting the city. It’s currently closed for tours but the outside is open for site-seeing. It’s just beautiful. The whole place is big—a lot of art and detail to try and process. Coupled with the history of the location, it’s a lot to wrap your mind around. The area is beautiful as well. The cathedral is close to metro stations, and is built for foot traffic.ale sure to add this to your list of must-sees during your time in Paris.

It is a cathedral with a breathtaking architecture. However, after the fire that broke out in April 2019, restoration work of the cathedral is still underway. Hence the visitors are not allowed to enter the cathedral yet (as of April 2022). You can get a magnificent view of the cathedral from outside, if you go on a River Seine cruise at dusk.

It was disappointing that 3/4 of the structure was covered/surrounded by tall metal panels that you couldn’t see through. Even though it’s burned and under construction I would have loved to see more of it. They erected a set of bleachers on the square for the public to sit and look at the front, but to see any of the rest you have to cross the Siene to see over the panels and through the scaffolding.

Historical and beautiful cathedral that is a must visit when in Paris. A lot of people outside church playing music and hanging out. The fence around the church details facts and stories of this church like when it was built and what happened the day it unfortunately caught on fire. It details all the damage it suffered and much more. Apparently the church is supposed to open again for visit in the fall of 2024. Hopefully next time I visit it will be open for tourists again.

While it was closed at the time due to the reconstruction work it's still an impressive site. At present there are various displays on the surrounding fences detailing the history and work taking place to restore the Cathedral to its former magnificence.
To one side there is a large stepped platform where you can climb up to take a photo or simply sit and enjoy the view.

Great historical building but nicer churches nearby. The amount of tourists and traffic mean the atmosphere here is hectic and not enjoyable, even without the reconstruction efforts the volume of people and cars mean the area is packed, loud and not solemn.

It's a really beautiful place. Doesn't matter if it's winter, autumn, summer or if it's sunny or rainy. It will always be an iconic place. The place is not open to the public yet, but you can sit outside and take pictures in front of the building. Sometimes others come here and do some kind of performance here and there are places to sit and watch the performances with the Notre Dame on the back.
You will find painters in the near, also in front of or there is another beautiful church, the Abbey Bookshop and the Oldest Tree in Paris. So, a lot to see in this area. Enjoy yourself here.

This is a beautiful building, we visited during the rebuilding after the huge fire, it was still amazing and can’t wait to return once she reopens to the public. 10/10 for history and architecture, to forgot to take a visit into the underground crypt next to the cathedral it is well worth a visit.
Stephen MacLean — Google review
Awe inspiring cathedral still under restoration & not open. There is a viewing stand in the courtyard to watch the progress & a storyboard running the full length of the fence that explains how restoration is being done. Even though we didn’t get to go in, just seeing the cathedral & witnessing the restoration is worth the visit.

6 Parvis Notre-Dame - Pl. Jean-Paul II, 75004 Paris, France
The Sainte-Chapelle is a Gothic chapel located within the Palais de la Cite in Paris, France. The chapel was commissioned by King Louis IX in 1248 and contains relics of Christ's crown of thorns. The chapel is one of the earliest and most important works of Rayonnant Gothic architecture, and is known for its lightness and height as well as its finely trimmed blue vaults.
Although the church itself is smaller in scale compared to others it’s interior is still beautiful. When we arrived the line was quite long and I was thinking that it wouldn’t be worth the long wait considering it was a cold rainy day. However to my surprise the line moved quite quickly. Once we entered we could see all the beautiful stain glass windows and other decor. The souvenirs they had at the bottom were all eye catching especially the circular stain glass pieces they had available, which I had to get for myself.

Must visit place in Paris! It's a glorious beauty beholding the grandeur for centuries!
Tickets need to be purchased online. Need to stay in line for a few minutes, after which you pass through security, then a relatively narrow staircase. Once you enter you notice that it's only a single big space but for sure you will be awestruck by it's beauty!
The details on each of the stained glasses and the colors used are just amazing! There's also a video display board on the side for more information.Definitely worth a visit!
You exit through the souvenir room.
There's a toilet facility just outside.

Beautiful, absolutely stunning stained glass! This was worth the price especially since Notre Dame is closed. You enter and go right up the spiral staircase to the main room. What detail. The doorway to a small patio has some amazingly detailed carvings. Beautiful stop!
William Case — Google review
Well worth a visit. Absolutely beautiful stained glass and atmosphere. We went to see a concert there, which was an excellent way of experiencing the church (book well in advance for this). As the church is attached to a government building account for an additional 30-60 min to get through security.

Breathtaking. I have seen many beautiful cathedrals and churches from the inside but this is really something else. The stained glass windows all around are simply awe-inspiring. If you go early or close to the closing time, the lines are not as long.

Absolutely beautiful chapel. It's not big at all, but it's a gorgeous jewel just a block from Notre-Dame.
Buy your tickets in advance and book a time slot. It will ease your visit by 1000%

Was in France with one of my French friends who mentioned this place and so glad he did. It was a very cool find to drop by and see. It’s not super big, doesn’t take a long time to see but I would say it’s def worth it if you have more time in Paris or you’ve seen all the other big attractions.

Wow. Just stunning. Absolutely worth seeing. It would be a wonderful experience to see and hear a performance here too. Definitely purchase ticket in advance, and get there 10-15mins before your entrance time. Queuing system is clear if you read the well indicated signs. It’s simple and very well done. Amazed by the number of people trying to take food and drink into a beautiful building. Thankfully there is a tight security system with body scanner.

Possibly the most beautiful place in Paris. You walk into a small chapel with a beautiful ceiling and incredible stained glass window, which you think is awesome. Then you go up stairs and get blown away! The entire top half of the walls is stained glass - rich blues, reds and greens. Just stunning.
You need to book in advance (online) and join the queue for your time slot. It's a small place so you may wait a ten minutes but it means you will have space in there. The area may look blocked off with police (next to the Palais de Justice) but show your tickets and they'll let you through.)
You are welcome to take photos.
There a public toilets before you leave.

There are two levels to cover. The lower level is beautiful but subtle and displays artefacts retrieved before the renovation and also houses the souvenir shop. The upper level is more crowded and home to the stained glass windows and statues along with the shroud. The place is beautiful inside. Tickets cost around 11€, but are free for certain groups. It's better to book them online in advance (though you might have to stand in a queue anyway).

Rode the funicular to the top, and the view of Paris was amazing!! We were told the inside wasn't as good as some we had already seen, so we didn't stand in the line that went around the building to get inside! But we did take pictures of the beautiful exterior!! We heard later we should have waited in line as the church was as pretty inside as out! Oh well, next time we'll know better!!

Amazing chapel to visit. I have never seen a more beautiful glass work than in the windows here. Definitely get tickets ahead of time. This chapel is one of the coolest places that I ever visited and I travel a lot.

This church, now an UNESCO World Heritage Site, was built by a French king to house the crown of thorns and pieces of the true cross - they spared no expense. The accessible portions of this site consist of a lower worship area and an upper area. For both of these I recommend the audio guide at least - there is symbolism everywhere and meaning in everything. You will miss it otherwise. The two areas are connected by a windy staircase that was made in the middle ages. When you enter the upper area it’s just an explosion of color that has to be experienced. Today we can but marvel at the craftsmanship of this world treasure. Truly amazing.

Beautiful tourist spot and a must-see. This was one of my favorite spots as a first time tourist. It felt like a nicer experience compared to a place like the Louvre because it wasn't as hectic or crazy. There were some people but not too many, and it was quiet inside the actual stained glass area.
Sarah Myers — Google review
Immense, vast, tall, grand and majestic. If you buy tickets in advance this does not mean you won't have to line up, be prepared to line up for at least 20mins. The cumbersome security process takes a while. Once you get past this, it's worth it. Be prepared to also climb a few plus some more stairs.
Rob De Franco — Google review
Very beautiful but very noisy, silence should be required according to everything in a small building and even a bedroom.
Overall a nice visit even if there was a very large crowd and noise
There are two spaces to see, the most beautiful of course being the one at the top which has wonderful stained glass windows and is truly exceptional.
Fairly quick visit, I advise you to buy your tickets online as you will save a little time.

Not a particularly large church (if you walked quickly you'd be done in less than 5 minutes), but still worth a visit. One of the best examples of 13th century Gothic architecture in the world.

The Church is so beautiful. The interior is incredible.
Worth it to visit when you are in Paris.
We must not queue to enter the Church because already did an online reservation.
So, better if you do a reservation before coming here.
Sadly we were just doing a short visit because we still must visit other places.

Make sure to book tickets in advance. It's timed entry. I bought our 9:30 am tickets a month in advance. You can come and stand in line to buy tickets, but we got in our 9:30 am line at 8:45 am and there were already people standing in line to buy tickets, by the time we got in, none of those people were able to buy tickets. The person managing the lines is very strict about time stamps on the tickets. All that aside, WOW just WOW😍😍😍 Sainte-Chapelle is the most beautiful place I've seen😍 and we visited a lot of cathedrals in Europe. It's like being inside a jewel. It's breathtaking! You just want to study every piece of the stained windows. They have little information boards in different languages inside and a cute gift shop downstairs. And the bonus is that on the way out you walk through the Palace of Justice courtyard. (There was a separate line to visit Palace of Justice)

Small, but incredibly beautiful stained glass chapel. Don’t miss the informational cards in the chapel that not only explain the process of creating stained glass, but also explain the stories that the stained glass depicts. We went late in the day (5:30pm time slot) and it didn’t feel that crowded either.
Laura Machacek — Google review
We did not have tickets before we arrived but it went fairly quickly and we were in within 10 minutes. However, we arrived at opening so it might be different later in the day. The actual church was very busy and crowded - they had plaques to describe the windows but not enough for most people to have one. Still, it was stunningly beautiful and I must recommend going. There are stairs to see the windows so it is not overly accessible.
KVan — Google review
Small but exquisite chapel with the most amazing stained glass windows. Make sure to book at time slot in advance, avoid the weekend, go early in the day, the chapel is small so 30 minutes is all you need once you are in. It’s just one block from notre dame, easy to find with google maps but few signs. A great brief experiment as part of a walking tour of Paris. Great gift shop.

What a beautiful chapel. The intricacy of the stained glass windows was so stunning and really worth going. We visited the chapel via a concert in the evening, and it was just such a memorable experience. The chapel itself takes only 5 minutes to see but to come here during the Opera festival made such a huge difference in a positive way.

Ok well I wouldn't pay to enter the chapel because u can see all.of it in under 5 minutes and its contained in these photos. That said I entered on the free Sunday day and.it was absolutely worth it.
Make sure u go to the first floor and don't stop with just the main entrance ground floor. The large panels of glass stained glass is on the next floor

Must see cathedral. Breathtaking stained glass windows. Go on a sunny day for the best experience. We purchased our tickets directly from the official website a week before for timed entry.

Since most areas are still under repair, I don't think there is a need to pay to go in and visit. So I only took photos outside. You can feel the majestic and great beauty from the outside.

This place is absolutely stunning and we were lucky to visit on a very sunny morning - which is very unusual for February.
We got tickets at the official webpage of the Chapel and there were no general admissions tickets available so we got “guided tour in English” instead. Honestly this was the best decision ever - the guide was so knowledgeable and we learnt so much that I felt like people who are there on their own should be crying as they are missing out on so much!
Highly recommend!

Beautiful chapel inside the royal palace. It was beautiful but very crowded. Since it was for royal use before, the church itself looks very extravagant but quite small. We finished checking it in like 30-45 mins (with taking pictures and reading stuff). I went in for free as it was the first Sunday of February

Probably one of the most beautiful place to visit in Paris. Walking up the stairs and then getting into the Chapel is just breathtaking. The colours of the windows are beautiful and relates the story from Genesis to the Apocalypse. With the Paris pass, you get free entry but you will have to pay a fee to get the audio guide. We were the last entry which meant that we got to have the chapel for ourselves as they were closing it down.
The world's most popular art museum, the Louvre houses a vast collection of artefacts from all over the world. With iconic masterpieces like Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa and two statues from Greece, it is no wonder why the Louvre is so popular. With rooms devoted to furniture, tapestries, and ornate objects, there is something for everyone at the Louvre Museum.
One of the best places and 100% must visit place during the season, though you have to be careful of social distancing because Covid19 is high peak once again, may Hid protect all humanity and out loved ones.
Be safe, Enjoy life, take precautions and travel safely.
Life can never stop because of some viruses as humanity faces more challenges than this but surely protect yourself and keep safe.
Must visit, must enjoy.

It was a great visit! We had a lot of fun during the 3 hours we spent on our visit to the museum and we saw a lot of great sculptures and paintings. Definitely recommended to buy the tickets in advance so you have to wait less time at the entrance queue and bring some food of your own so when you finish your visit you can have something to eat (if you don’t want to spend any money in the cafeteria).

One of the best museums in the world. If you love art, you can literally spend an entire day inside without getting bored. The building is huge with so many rooms displaying artworks and artifacts from different parts of the world. Despite the crowds, I still very much enjoy my visit.

The feeling you get in front of the masterpieces is indescribable.
Definitely a must go in Paris.

We bought the tickets online when we were already there.
There is a Starbucks, other cafeterias and restaurant.
There is audio guide and maps of the building.

One of my favorite places in France. It's breathtaking, the history and every room has so much to tell. You'll need one whole day to really see most of it, because the museum is really big. You must plan to be there for minimum 4 hours.

Quite a lot of work of arts. I saw the highlights, but wished I could have seen more. Will go back definitely. We walked about three km and focused on about three statues and the Mona Lisa. It was amazing to learn a bit about the history of the museum and where all the art came from. Great to see the Mona Lisa in low season. I recommend seeing it when it’s not high season.

Visiting the Louvre was truly an amazing experience. The museum is home to some of the most renowned artworks and historical artifacts in the world, and I was in awe of the sheer beauty and cultural significance that surrounded me. From iconic masterpieces like the Mona Lisa to ancient Egyptian sculptures, the Louvre offers an incredible collection that spans centuries of human creativity.
However, one challenge I encountered during my visit was the overwhelming crowd. The Louvre is undoubtedly a popular tourist attraction, and it attracts visitors from all over the globe. As a result, certain areas of the museum can become quite crowded, making it a bit challenging to fully appreciate the artworks in a peaceful and relaxed manner.
Nonetheless, despite the crowds, the Louvre remains a must-visit destination for art enthusiasts and history buffs. The grandeur of the museum's architecture itself is worth admiring, and the vastness of its collection ensures that there is something to captivate every visitor. To make the most of your visit, I would recommend arriving early in the day or considering a weekday visit to avoid the peak tourist hours.
Overall, the Louvre offers an extraordinary journey through art and history, and even with the crowds, the experience is still incredibly enriching. Standing face-to-face with iconic masterpieces is a humbling and awe-inspiring encounter that I will cherish forever. If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend exploring the Louvre and immersing yourself in the world of art and culture it has to offer.

Biblical art was absolutely breathtaking, gigantic beautiful pieces which looked magnificent in person. Without a doubt the highlight of the Louvre.
The Mona Lisa is, as expected, nothing special, but I highly highly recommend going to see it as the walk there is packed with gorgeous biblical art, and the room it’s in is also filled with this.

The largest and most impresive and beautiful museum I have ever been to, it is a multiple day endeavor: After selectively stopping for specific masterpieces, it took me 5 hours just to get to see half of the exhibition. A truly must see, bucket list visit. You must buy your tickets online for a specific time of entry into the museum, so plan carefully your visit.

What more to be said than everything that's written during the years about the worldwide famous Louvre museum. Yes, it is extremely big. Yes, you can spend days and days discovering the collection. Yes, the Mona Lisa is really small. Yes, the museum is overcrowded by people. Yes, there's a long waiting line. Inside this information is where the museum's only problem is hidden, It's too much of the good thing. There are so many objects and paintings in every room that it's almost impossible to focus on one thing. The Louvre does a great job in showing how versatile their collection is, but there isn't a lot of information in every room about what you're looking at. It would be an improvement if they leave more space between every painting, so you can have a good look at all the details. The building itself and the entrance with the pyramid are impressive, a pure joy to enter. Be sure to take your time or just focus on certain parts of the museum, as you'll probably lose time and be there the whole day. 4.5/5.0

Sculpture and art from three thousand years ago right up through today in an expansive edifice modified to enhance your experience. This is the quintessential art museum in a city of world class art museums. One can rent an audio tour here, which is a Nintendo, that is interactive and provides highlights and incredible insight into the more popular displays - highly recommend. The complex is so incredible as to be overwhelming.

This place is huge and one of the most visited places on earth. The museum has so much to offer and learn from, so be prepared to spend hours there (one day isn’t enough to explore
half of the museum).
A beautiful museum with timeless and priceless artifacts, which will leave you awestruck. It’s a must see in Paris.
Kindly book your tickets in advance and all roads will lead to the “Mona Lisa”.

Didn’t expect much, and was a bit surprised. It’s a nice experience with many many art pieces, among other things. It was pretty crowded and quite hard to navigate, but it’s expected for it’s size and popularity. Also, As an EU student under 25, the entrance was completely free, which is insane and thanks to France or whoever did that.

Went there several times and have yet to understand how to find the Mona Lisa in one go (I’m the worst tour guide).
As for reservations:
- Make an online reservation beforehand (on the same day is fine) so that you don’t have to wait in line in front of the pyramid, you’ll scan your ticket super quickly (real time saver).
- If you aren’t an original EU citizen but are currently studying here, you’ll need to bring your student ID and a pic of your visa (student ID or ID alone doesn’t suffice) to get free entry.

The most visited museum in the world, home of some of the most famous paintings like Mona Lisa, Liberty Leading The People. Ticket prebuy is recommended. There are cafes with reasonable prices in the museum. Have a bottle of water with you, it will take 2-3 hours or more to finish. Quite crowded.

you should wear something sport since you need to walk very much. And walk according to the map to not be lost and to have a look on all the museum.
Enjoy this amazing museum.
The Musée d'Orsay is a world-renowned art museum located in the former railway station of Gare d'Orsay in Paris, France. Its collection spans the period from 1848-1914 and contains some of the most iconic paintings and sculptures produced during that time. The museum is popular with tourists, who visit for its vast array of impressionist and post-impressionist art.
One of my favorite museums in Paris for the temporary and regular exhibitions. The diversity of the collections is simply impressive. Another interesting side is the architecture of the museum. Last and not least the unique restaurant which is a regular step in every visit I do to this place. The view is stunning, the interior is so rich (ceilings, walls,…). I recommend this place with no hesitation!

Our most favorite museum in Paris. It's a wonderland if you are a fan of impressionist art. Admire the location of an old train station with its iconic clock aside from all the wonderful art on display from the greats including Monet, Rembrandt, Picasso, and many others. Prepare to spend half a day here if you really want to soak in the museum. Definitely buy tickets in advance for a timed slot if you do not want to spend hours just in queue, especially if you plan to visit during high season. If you are visiting only one museum in Paris make it this one.

This is the best museum I've been to because they carry so many of my favorite painters (the impressionists like Van Gogh, Cezanne, Manet,etc). This was better than the Louvre as it had a better collection in my opinion, but also because it was more manageable and had less people. The louvre was insanely crowded.
Jason Fair (Nomadic Nerd Project) — Google review
What an amazing museum. The architecture of the railroad station is a stunning setting for a “modern art” gallery. We were visiting on a Sunday so we started early at 10am. By midday the place was getting pretty busy. I’m glad we got the place to Preakness for a couple of hours. The temporary exhibit about the early years of cinema was really eye opening and beautifully presented. I’ve attached some photos of my favourite pieces.

Wonderful museum holding paintings, sculptures, and creations of world renowned artists. Definitely don't miss it if you're in Paris.
Get the tickets online or Paris Museum pass to skip the long line. We went on a Thursday afternoon and it was way less crowded than the Louvre and it felt easier to stroll the museum more leisurely. Much smaller than the Louvre. We spent around 2 and a half hours here and enjoyed it a lot.

I like this museum better than the louvre especially the beautiful room on the second floor and the impressionist and post impressionist displays. Definitely recommend.

I booked tickets without a timeslot and arrived half an hour before the museum opened. I expected to wait in line for a long time but at 9:30 the line moved fast and I went straight in.
The museum is very pretty in a renovated train station. I spent almost 4 hours here. There are many beautiful impressionist and post impressionist artworks.

A great museum, large with multiple floors and covers some of history's finest in Van Gogh, Rodin, Monet etc.
You can buy tickets online or get them free if you are 18-26 and an EU citizen. Otherwise if you miss the online sales get there early (around 9:00AM) so you can pickup one at the door for €2 less and pop right in.
Lots of gift options inside as well as a restaurant and cafe. The building itself is elaborate and beautiful.
If sculptures and impressionist paintings aren't your thing don't go here. Otherwise, enjoy!

One of my favorite tourist spots for a first timer for Paris. This museum was easier to tolerate than the Louvre... I find the artworks in here more elegant and stylistic than the classic Louvre, which is boxy and less ornate and incredibly crowded to even stand being in there for an hour. This museum by contrast was easy to see in one visit and it was extremely satisfying.
Sarah Myers — Google review
Can this be anything but five stars? This houses one of the greatest collections of art on the planet. What really surprised me is how manageable it is in terms of size. It’s actually possible to do most of the galleries in one visit. I have not expected that, I think it helps that the grand concourse through the center is a glorious open space, filled with statuary that provides a respite from the intimacy of the galleries

I am a fan of the impressionists and this place is awesome!
Did a 90 minute guided tour which was well worth it both for the easy getting in and out, as well as for the help navigating the museum.
Much smaller than the Louvre, but still very large.
We came as it opened and it was not very crowded, definitely saw some lines when we were leaving.

It does not disappoint. My favorite floor was obviously the fifth but there is so much more as well. I had been reading about these paintings for twenty years but to get to see them in person is so different. It felt surreal and I love the layout of the museum and the friendly staff made it feel all the more dream like to me. Just standing in such close proximity to these beautiful pieces of art, that have inspired people for so many years, it was honestly hard to leave. Luckily there are lots of comfortable places to sit and although it’s a busy place for the most part, we felt like we weren’t rushed or that we couldn’t see what we wanted to see. All of the tags are in English and French, and their are English and other language maps available for the whole museum.

Amazing museum. All the paintings was exposed with such an amazing way that was very easy to understand the emotional situation that the artist wanted to show. Do not hesitate to take audio guide.If you do not take you will miss some very important information for the artist. Also there are some very unique collections that unfortunately are only for a few days per year.

Exploring Musée d'Orsay on the first Sunday of the month was a fantastic decision. Not only did we get to experience the museum's world-class collection, but the added bonus of free entrance made the visit even more memorable. The usual entry fee being waived on this day is a thoughtful gesture that allows art enthusiasts and curious minds alike to immerse themselves in the museum's offerings.
From the moment we stepped into the grandeur of the building, we were captivated by the architectural beauty that seamlessly blends history with art. The natural light filtering through the iconic clock windows added a touch of enchantment to the entire experience. The layout of the museum is well-planned, allowing us to navigate through the different sections with ease.
The vast array of artworks, especially the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces, left us in awe. Standing face-to-face with iconic paintings and sculptures that we had only seen in books was an exhilarating feeling. The informative plaques beside each exhibit provided valuable insights into the artist's life and creative process, enhancing our understanding and appreciation.
The staff at Musée d'Orsay deserves special mention for their warmth and knowledge. They were more than happy to answer our questions and engage in discussions about the art pieces, making the visit even more enriching.
Visiting the Musée d'Orsay on the first Sunday of the month was not only a smart way to save on entrance fees but also an opportunity to connect with art and history on a deeper level. This initiative reflects the museum's commitment to making art accessible to all, and we left with a renewed sense of appreciation for the artistic wonders housed within its walls.

Ha! Things are never like in the movies! Have seen small portions of this museum, 1 or 2 folks pass by as the star sits quietly, contemplating the picture. Yeah, right!
Never has happened; I went through the museum on a weekday, and it was fairly crowded. From what I could tell and comments from some folks who have been there before, crowds are the norm.
One example is the Mona Lisa, right? I was able to get through a crowd of non-moving folks just standing there. Fortunately, I have long arms able to elevate my arms up high enough to get a job picture. I think.
Absolutely a must visit when in Paris! Only note I would add is that you really need days, if not weeks to fully see and enjoy all of this world class museum.

My favorite museum in the world. The setting in a former train station is completely unique and impressive. The sculptures and paintings, concentrated from the pre- to post - impressionist era, are truly breathtaking. The sheer size of some paintings is mind boggling, with unbelievable detail and unmatched artistry. I will be back many times.

We visited the fantastic Musée d'Orsay in Paris in the morning to avoid the crowds. Prior to our visit, we had pre-booked our tickets, making it effortless for us to gain admission without waiting in line. The museum is a must-visit for art lovers, as it boasts one of the most significant collections of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art. We were amazed by the vast collection - we had never seen anything like it before! Seeing the artworks that we had only previously seen in art books in person was incredible.

Amazingly beautiful building, the entry fee is worth it just to see the architecture. There are lots of historic art depicting culturally significant events/people/landscapes in the lower sections. However, the impressionist and more modern art of Gauguin, Van Gogh and Monet were amazingly beautiful and I was deeply moved. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely loved this museum. I recommend starting in the impressionist art because there are a ton of gems here and it can be easy to get overwhelmed and tired. We went through the art eras that we appreciated the most and then were able to cruise through the other art and sculpture during the second half of the day. Came during the free Sunday visit and highly recommend to purchase tickets ahead of time to skip the crazy long wait lines

Wonderful museum of Impressionism art. A definite visit if you go to Paris for art lovers. There is quite a few sculptures as well to enjoy.
Tips: buy tickets in advance online from their official site. All kids under 18 are free.
Start on the fifth floor (where all Impressionism works are) towards the front of building then go to back and descend for furniture floors (3 and 4 floors), then the lowest two floors have sculptures and paintings before impression period.

It's a must for art lovers to visit the Musée d'Orsay when staying in Paris. Whether it's a temporary exhibition or the museum's permanent collection, all the art on display is simply fantastic. To avoid queuing and waiting in line it's recommended to book tickets online and in advance.

One of the centerpieces of Paris, likely the most renowned museum after the Louvre. You can see some artists like Van Gogh, Claude Monet and Renoir, but to be quite honest they are not the ones stealing the show.
The temporary exhibitions were great, but the most beautiful thing about the museum is the renovated railway station it's set in. Here you can witness some seriously breathtaking halls full of art and the sheer scale gives creeps. The building broke me. It's beautiful.
Be warned, though. This is a huge museum and you'll probably need a better part of the day to see it.

Esplanade Valéry Giscard d'Estaing, 75007 Paris, France
Montmartre is a neighborhood in Paris, located on the Butte Montmartre and its slopes. The area has been immortalized by many famous artists, such as Monet, Toulouse-Lautrec, Renoir, Pissarro and van Gogh. It retains its bohemian character even after centuries of development.
Amazing views of the city but be aware if you walk that it is uphill and there are a lot of steps. Though once on top the view overlooking Paris is beautiful.
Though it does get very crowded here and the steps are also full of teens with people drinking and smoking.

One more must place to visit when you visit Paris for the first time. Located up on a hill, that gives you a very nice view of the city. Very touristic with plenty of choice to eat- drink or buy some souvenirs

Super nice place to see the view of the city in one glance.
Loved the entire vibe, also very romantic place if you get to visit with a partner.
I couldn’t get enough of the view.
If only I would be there earlier in the day so i could visit the cathedral. Otherwise on the noon it’s really crowded

So busy!!!!! But the panoramic view was phenomenal. It was a hike to get up there… 300 steps. Good views. It is a few euros to go to the top, but worth it. WAY less crowded at the panoramic level.

A lovely place to wander and soak in the sights and sounds of Paris. Lots of people strolling and enjoying the view.

The exterior and interior are very impressive. The view of Paris from a height of 130 m is especially wonderful. I advise you to climb the stairs, not the funicular. It's symbolic because that's where John Wick's final battle took place, if anyone watched the final part of "John Wick: Chapter 4"

Everyone tells you must visit Montmartre when you come to Paris.... and they're are absolutely right. You should spend at least 1 full day in this part of Paris. You will see so many artistic and awesome things. So cute and unique!

The view is absolutely gorgeous!
We recommend walking around and absorbing the atmosphere.
We recommend coming at the evening so you see when it sunny and at night when all of Paris is with lights

It’s a hike with lots of steps if you’re up for it! If not, you can take a tram to the top. Beautiful view, we didn’t wait in the line to go inside. Cute town

Best view in the Paris! 💕

It was within about a 30 minutes from our hotel.To be honest, I was afraid to walk on the street in that direction at first. The streets make me feel unsafe and they were really dirty and didn’t smell pleasant. However the road eventually led to a haven called Montmarte which was really good place to spend time.

Such a nice place with plenty of visitors during post-pandemic period when we visited the place!

Exceptional place on the top of Paris city. You should spend a full day in Montmartre area, you can enjoy many things and explore many sights.

Perfect place with awesome vibes. The portrait making folks ask a lot for portraits, when u get it not worth it. Food, shopping is good

What a beautiful village. I was told it's one of the oldest villages in Paris so we just had to go. Just walking through it's streets and having ice cream then visiting the Basilisque du Sacre Coeur was incredible (keep quiet inside out of respect to the church and those praying). The view from the top is awesome. Definite must visit

Nice and french vibe if it wasnt for all the tourists (us included, I know) :) Tourist trap on all restaurants - not very good cuisine. Nice place with small streets and a good view over Paris.
Michael Hahn — Google review
Vibrant, amazing little town at the top of the hill, with a huge Basílica (Sacre Coeur). The building is huge and amazing, yet once you get up there, the good part starts. Bohemian type town where artists, musicians used to live or work there, some renowned ones were Monet, Renoir, Picasso, van Gogh, among others.
Streets are filled with nice small shops, where you can get portraits painted for you, many handmade, art/drawings. As you keep walking restaurants, start appearing, streets filled with tourists. A glass/cup of hot wine would fit very well if in low temperature season. You can also find street musicians playing for tips. We chose a restaurant in a corner, which ended up being an amazing option, which had a musical ambience (low volume international guitar, live music), great environment, good customer service (specially for tourists), food was good, nothing out of this world, but the rest made up much more for it.
There is a cable car in case you want to avoid going up the stairs and you can get there via the train with a station nearby.

One of the places in Paris where you can easily spend an entire day is this magnificent church. The experience of climbing to the top is nothing short of excellent. They even have a convenient trolley-like transport to help you ascend.
Of course, the highlight is the breathtaking view of Paris from the top. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in experiencing a spectacular panoramic view of Paris from above.

Forever one of the best places for a city walk in Paris, offering stunning photo opportunities and panoramic views of the city. Plus, there are plenty of nearby eateries to enjoy some delicious cuisine

This is a beautiful church where you can sit and have a few moments of peace. One thing to note is that the lines can become pretty big (although the entry is free). It is better to come to this place well ahead of time. You can also get a vintage newspaper photo if you are lucky outside its premises.

Once home to Picasso and Dali, this is a charming village surrounded by arts craft and the sweet scent of coffee and pastry shops. The track up to the peak is capped by Montmartre Cathedral.

It was a sunny day in June when we came, it's not very crowded and we walked along the most beautiful streets at Montmartre leading to the way up. Atop you see at height the beautiful cityscape of Paris. The church is spectacular.
Benny CHAN — Google review
Amazing place. It's a bit of a hike, but totally worth it for the magnificent church at the top and views.
Pushpalanka Mankotte Kankanamalage — Google review
The imposing, domed white Sacré-Cœur Basilica was built in 1875 after the Franco-Prussian War and the Paris Commune. It is a symbol of the conservative Catholic old guard and contrasts with the bohemian lifestyle that surrounded it. The breathtaking view from its upper parvis over Paris is a major draw for visitors.
Absolutely amazing piece of architecture and a bonus breathtaking view of the city. The church itself is beautiful and sits on a cliff where you have to take a cable car 🚠 uphill but even the view of the church from the bottom is wonderful.
WittyBoi — Google review
This is one of the best locations to visit while in Paris. I would say first place, especially if you aren't lazy enough to walk around and inhale the spirit of old Paris. Each time we visit this Basilica we find something new!

Stunning cathedral! It is located on top of the hill of MontMartre which is such a stunning little district of Paris, like how they depict it in the movies. Winding roads, cobblestone, old buildings and little paths and stairways up, lots of explore.
You can go inside and visit the cathedral for free, and sometimes there is a live mass occurring. It is beautiful inside.
You can also see Paris from atop at a vantage point here.
Carole Wang — Google review
This was the most wonderful place I visited while in Paris! I fell in love with this cathedral the moment I saw it from afar. The outside of the cathedral is absolutely gorgeous. The inside is breathtaking. Definitely the most beautiful Cathedral I’ve ever been to. They offer the Eucharist at various times of the day as well as confessions. I arrived early in the day, therefore I didn’t have to wait in line to enter. I spent 3-4 hours here.

This place was unexpected. Our tour guide took us here without having known of it prior to going and boy were we surprised how beautiful and amazing it was! From the first time we saw it while walking up through the alley to the time spent walking through the church to admire all the detail we were captivated! And if that wasn’t enough when you walk out you will see some of the best views of Paris! It is well worth the trip! Do some research before going if you require any assistance getting around as there are cobble streets and a steady incline getting to and leaving the area.

There it stands beautiful on the top of the hill. Breathtaking! Climbing up the stairs I was astonished by the wonderful views of the city and the history marked on every step. Free admission. Totally worth the stairs climbing.
Rand AR — Google review
One of the best places to visit. The white domed cathedral located in Paris is an amazing place to see. The view is great from the cathedral. There is a metro station nearby and you need to climb a few steps to reach the hill top. The cathedral is beautiful from both outside and Inside. The view of Paris is stunning. There is also a cable car directly to the hilltop.
Mohammed Riyan — Google review
One of the most beautiful (and most busy) churches in Paris. You can take the tram or hike up a few flights of stairs. We got lucky and saw a service in process. The music acoustics were amazing. Small prayer candles (€2) large candles (€10). Cash and card are accepted. It is 7€ to go the top look out portion, 270+ Steps! No bathrooms. Tons of vendors selling souvenirs by the steps. If you walk down to the street there are plenty of other souvenir shops. Definitely a must see! Worth the steps to see the view!
Ps, Bring a lock and key if you and your loved one want to place your lock on the exterior fence.

It is a beautiful white cathedral spotted at a really high place of the French capital, Paris. From there is possible to see almost whole city.
And to get inside of the edification is possible too, from where you can have even better view of Paris, after climbing the tower. The inside is also nice.
Other nice touristic place of this city!!!
NAKA JONES — Google review
What a magnificent cathedral inside and out. It offers a quiet atmosphere and you can visit a magnificent temple. From the outside, you can enjoy a wonderful view of Paris. Easy to access, there's a cheap cable car/funicolare.

A beautiful basilica Sacré-Cœur (Funicular) in France. Standing on top of a hill, vastly looking with white doms and a wide scenic view of Paris city from the church boulevard. Amazing external and internal architecture with an ancient look. We have to climb many steps and can use the transport system of an inclined elevator to the top from the bottom level for the cost of 2 euros. Very interesting to understand the culture and the belief. We can see many tourists fixing the padlocks on a fence as part of their love. Surrounding we can see many artists sitting and drawing, painting the portraits specially in a particular area. In history Pablo Picasso and many artists who spent their time over there. Tourists can get their portraits painted or pencil sketched and buy souvenirs from there. A really peaceful place to visit in Paris.

35 Rue du Chevalier de la Barre, 75018 Paris, France
Champs-Élysées Avenue is a long and wide street in Paris that's well know for its high-end shopping. The avenue gets its name from the famed landmarks located on either side of it, including the Louvre Museum, Tuileries Palace, and the Arc de Triomphe. After taking photos of these famous sites, continue your morning by shopping at some of Paris' best department stores on Montaigne Avenue.
Nice street with lots of shopping options. Lots of famous brands around the area. Also many landmarks within walking distance.

Nothing special, just a street with shops. It’s nice to see but there are so many streets with shops that are more interesting and pleasant than this one. Also the cafe’s and restaurants are overpriced and overrated.

Tons of restaurants, shops, etc..! The street is so beautiful and there is a structure that incredible as well. Would recommend for shopping!!!

Natuurlijk moet je hier ook zijn geweest, maar ga niet met 30 graden de hele straat doorlopen dat is veel te warm. Ook is het drinken bij de terrasjes heel duur ga daarvoor naar de achterliggende straten.
(Translated by Google)
Of course you should have been here too, but don't walk through the entire street when it's 30 degrees, it's way too hot. Drinking at the terraces is also very expensive, so go to the streets behind it.
