It's one of the most popular destinations in the world, partly because of its romance, history, shopping, food, wine, and entertainment.
Paris holds both positive and negative reputations, depending on whom you consult. Some people find the city's architecture and culture sublime, while others claim that Parisians can be rude and abrupt.
Well .... we loved it.
The benefits significantly surpass the drawbacks. As with any major city, you'll encounter individuals attempting to scam you on the streets. This happens in places like London, New York, and Rome too. Scams are common everywhere, so you must remain vigilant wherever you travel.
The subway is the most practical way to get around because Paris's major attractions are scattered across the city. It allows you to travel efficiently between stations to visit nearly every attraction in the city. Furthermore, the metro system offers access to places outside the city, like Disneyland.
Exploring Paris with Big Bus Tours on their open-top double-decker bus is an excellent way to grasp the city's layout. From an educational standpoint, it was outstanding. The recorded commentary was available in English, allowing us to gain a solid understanding of Paris in just a few hours on the Big Bus. Additionally, we had an enthusiastic and well-informed tour guide. They always offer educational commentary, giving you insights into the city's history, architecture and more.
We always like to do a Big Bus Tour within the first two days of arriving at a destination. Not only does the tour offer you city insights, but the elevated aspect of the open-top bus gives you great photo opportunities of major attractions.
We've experienced Big Bus Tours in major cities such as London, Paris, and Florence, each offering valuable insights into the cities. Another fantastic aspect of Big Bus Tours is the ability to hop on and off at any time, allowing you to spend more time at a specific stop or attraction before rejoining the tour at your convenience.
