France
Paris Trip Planner
The classic first trip and the one you keep coming back to.
Paris rewards both the checklist traveler and the wanderer — world-class museums and monuments threaded between café terraces and river walks. A first visit fits the icons into three or four days; return trips are for neighborhoods, markets, and day trips.
Best time to visit Paris
April–June and September–October for mild weather and lighter crowds than peak summer. December is magical but cold; August is hot and many locals are away.
