Planning your Paris trip

Paris is a city best explored on foot and by Metro. Staying near a Metro or RER station makes it easy to reach the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, Montmartre and the Latin Quarter.

If you are travelling on to other parts of France or Europe, Paris has excellent high-speed rail connections from its main stations, so you can often skip a second flight.
