okay

i went to paris with mi school, it wasnt bad, there was long queues for the eifel tower and a lot of steps for the arc de trionphe. but other than tht it was brilliant we went to the eifel tower (right to the top) and the arc de triomphe(right to the top) and loads of other places we also went to disney land paris. it was really fun its great for children and adult they got different rides for all ages and they got disney characters there and u can get autographs and most people in paris are very polite. i enjoyed it very much.

cold wet windy yet still ok

I thought i would put on a more recent review on here as just returned from Paris for 3 nights in March 2008. Weather was cold and wet and spoiled it - as its not much fun getting wet and cold! however despite this visited most of the tourist places and found it interesting and fun. Becuase of the bad weather all the sensible people were indoors so relatively quiet didnt have to queue to see attractions. Would recommend to anyone. Food quite average. Best Meal was a Chinese! It was expensive ie coffee 4 euros but expected that so no surprise. Managed to get by on my school girl french and was understood which was a a plus. Would I go again? Maybe but when it was warmer.

Really amazing and extremely beautiful city

I loved everything, the people, the food, the scenery, the atmosphere, the shops. Paris is really easy to get to by plane or train and the transport system in Paris is very good and efficient. I can't wait to go back.

Beautiful city . . . you can't appreciate it properly unless you've been there

I really love Paris its got such charm and charisma. I could easily write an analytical biography of France . . . But I'll save you the essay. The first initial thing you look for when you enter Paris is the Eiffel Tower (naturally). This magnificent structure gives breathtaking views once at the top if you have the nerve and courage to actually get to the top. Of course queuing up is busy but well worth it. The Notre Dam is maybe something you would think of bypassing, but speaking from experience (and being literally dragged in by my parents!) I really quite liked it. Even amongst all of the visitors I found it really peaceful and fascinating even, although at the time I didn't admit this to my parents! (teenage pride . . . adults don't understand). Mont Matre hmmmmm for one of the most beautiful views in Paris I would recommend it but all of those steps . . . . no I'm kidding I was just a lazy bones when I went. The artists offer very reasonable prices for minors as well of adults and they really astonished me with each of their individual talents and styles they were amazing! The church of Mont Matre itself well I didn't go in I do have to confess, it is in a rather unlikely place though . . looking over the red light district!! But it is not as you would imagine it has more class than you would desire to imagine. I really enjoyed Paris I wish I had stayed there longer. I am really thinking of studying there in the future. I feel more at home there than I do in my home land of England and I will challenge anyone who disagrees.

Magnifique

Was there short time... for those who like to take in sights and smells upclose, the city isn't too huge, so it's great for walkers. Budget travel may be a bit challenging, but doable. Parisians are approachable and are generally helpful- especially with my ailing French. Thankfully, most of those who I encountered spoke English reasonably well.Safety wise... lone travellers may be 'propositioned' with a fling in the city of romance... so be careful. It's a historical, beautiful city and it's easy to see why people fall in love with it. It indeed is "all that".

A Real Disappointment

Having just spent the weekend in Paris and being sorely disappointed i have been surprised by the amount of people i have spoken to that have also had similar disappointing experiences. Paris is one massive rip off. The quality of food in the majority of restaurants is exrememly poor, ridiculously expensive, service is genrally rude and you can't get a decent coffee for less than 4 euros or a decent coffee full stop. Paris has been left in the dark ages and London with it's great range of places to eat and drink puts it to shame (bet you never thought you would hear that!) Save your money for another european city that really wants to treat you well, isn't arrogant and understands service, quality and friendliness.

Paris, forget what you've heard!

I first visited Paris several years ago as a complete 'virgin', and, loved it from the moment I stepped off the bus. I was once told that Paris was either a place you fell in love with or hated. Considering the passionate nature of the city I can readily agree. For me? I am in love with the city, for others, of my aquantance? Some hate 'it' some are as smitten as I. For those who have never been, please, please do. You never know, you may just enter into a love affair which will last you a lifetime.

stinks like pee

I just came back from Paris. It isnt like what people say. Sights were very pretty but everywhere you go for the most part it smells like p. There are tons of hobos and beggars everywhere. You get hit up at the train stations for money or food. It gets very annoying. I am glad I went it is an experience I will never forget but I have no desire to go back.

Not the best

Just came back from Paris today and can't wait to write my opinion here. Very terrible place, very dangerous, somebody with nice clothing and looking came to me and asked for a road, at the same time, another 2 guys came to me suddenly and tell me they are police (with police ID) and wanted to check my body. I was awared I'm in danger, I hold my gf's hand tight and ran away. I The weather there is bad,food is absolutely expensive, pay a bit more for a better hotel, try to avoid to hang out at night time. Feel very unsecure in this 5 days trip. Anyway, try on their Salad dressing and lamb shank or any of the French traditional foods which are very nice. And the night view of Eiffel Tower.
