coming to Paris for the first time – what should visitors see?
Definitely seeing the Eiffel Tower is a must. I think visiting Paris without seeing the iconic monument would be an incomplete trip to the French capital.
Get lost in Montmartre, visit the Sacré-Coeur and just sit on its steps, taking in the view of the city.
Spend a day at the Louvre.
Laze an afternoon away at Hotel Costes (it’s very Paris), sitting in the courtyard and enjoying a glass of white wine.
Visit Versailles. (Take the train - RER Line C, which takes around 1 hour though may take
longer depending on where you're getting on. It's a 5 minute walk from the station)
Walk around the Marais district and drinking in the sight of the Place des Vosges.
Shopping! At Lanvin on Rue Saint-Honoré and at the famous Chanel boutique on Rue Cambon. Shopping at the most luxurious boutiques in the city is a must and returning home with a new bag or a beautiful pair of heels from the fashion capital is just priceless... And, stocking up on make-up at Sephora on Avenue des Champs-Elysées and Dior on Avenue Montaigne.
