My one important bit of advice for visiting the Louvre is this: Please know that there are other LESS USED entrances to the museum, that you can access and bypass the heavily trafficked main entrance, by the pyramid. That entrance is always crowded with people waiting hours to enter, when you can use one of the other less known ones, and get inside in under 10 minutes or thereabouts. You will be in and enjoying the art, hours before most of the people in the main line.

[@HappytoWander]

Great tip!!! Thanks for sharing :)

[@ElrosTar-Minyatur]

And where are these entrances?

[@conchitamacario2599]

Please direct us where the other entrances.

[@OneRedFeatherStudios.]

All the entrances are mapped out there on that link.

Hi, as a French native, it's a super video that can definitely help people to choose and visit easier the amazing attractions in Paris😊

[@amandadarling6074]

Fantastic video 👏🏻 My wife and I traveled to London and Paris last June. I thought London was my favorite city having traveled there previously, but wow!!! I left my entire heart in Paris!!!! We cannot wait to go back. Thank you so much for all of the fabulous work on this. We will absolutely refer back to this video to plan our next trip to magical Paris💗

[@BoywithLoveeee]

I’m going to Paris in two weeks off my birthday and I’m super excited :) thank you for the video

[@jamesforma6686]

Great video, studied in paris and this is spot on

[@richardmathieu5565]

I really like your guide it had a lot of things that other guys did not like the invalid hotel and the cemetery which I legally blind so I appreciate you adding that

[@sarai72]

Great video. I always feel like I’m on location when watching your videos. 👍🏻

[@HappytoWander]

Thanks so much!! That’s absolutely the goal so I really appreciate you saying that 🫶🥹

[@plovenmark6424]

I loved this video! I discovered places even as one who has been to Paris several times. Also appreciate your map!!

[@HappytoWander]

Thank you so much!!! Paris is just one of those cities that always has more to see, isn’t it?! Hope you can go back again to see more soon :) thanks for watching!

[@MrsMirandaWarren]

The best video that I've watched this far🙌🏽 I am visiting Paris next week and will be staying in Saint Germaine

[@saml.6704]

Beautiful video.

[@sobernewvlogs]

Good videi

[@HappytoWander]

Thanks so much!

[@merriesherman710]

Thank you for your excellent video, I’m going to Paris next month- Can you tell me where I find your map? Thx!

[@MJN0922]

If you get to Place de la Bastille you'll want to go on market days. Such a huge market with a lot of inexpensive souvenir tables as you enter. I also saw Van Gogh at Atelier des Lumières - so awesome!!! wish I could be there to see Egyptian Pharaohs. Love your videos - you have a great voice and your recommendations are spot on!!!

[@HappytoWander]

Ooh I had no idea they did a market there! Thanks for the tip and for the kind words :)

[@102810281028nl]

Love your videos . Have you or are you planning on going to Iceland?

[@HappytoWander]

Thank you so much! I did a ten day road trip there back in 2016 but that was SO long ago, I don’t feel qualified to make a video on it until I go back haha

[@theo7434]

Great video!! I just wonder, how did you take the drone shots? I wanted to film Paris but there are very stricts laws about drones

[@marj176]

Hi! I have a question. We booked an apartment in Zurich for 3 days, it is normal they ask an ID to confirmed our booked??

[@ayelekebret6900]

Do you have a video to travel from London t0 Paris and return except Eurostar?

[@lizzyimberi9261]

Do the Seine River cruises run in the winter?

[@HappytoWander]

Yes most companies operate year round, though their schedule might be a little sparser than in peak season :) Hope that helps!

[@alhicehhh]

Does Seine River cruise run in July before the Olympic starts?

[@zoeyabas8786]

can someone spell the covered passages she referenced

[@axumgandolff8546]

No map with location tho

[@ihopetowin]

Whenever I visit Paris and France in general I attend many galleries including the Louvre. I understand some may not be up to the cultural challenge; too bad for you.

Marie Curie was not French…
