8 days in Paris Itinerary

A beautiful and romantic city fit for any itinerary, Paris brims with historic associations and remains vastly influential in the realms of culture, art, fashion, food and design.

Appreciate the collections at Musee d'Orsay and Louvre Museum. Your inner history buff will appreciate Île de la Cité and Arc de Triomphe. Venture out of the city with trips to Palace of Versailles (in Versailles), Chateau de Fontainebleau (in Fontainebleau) and Chartres Cathedral (in Chartres). There's much more to do: take a stroll through Le Marais, step into the grandiose world of Chateau of Coucy, shop like a local with Saint Germain des Pres Quarter, and admire the striking features of Basilica du Sacre-Coeur de Montmartre.
