==== ABOUT LES FRENCHIES ====
After 32 years in the US, the Duponts moved to France where Antoine was born. Antoine is rediscovering his homeland and sharing it with his American wife Colleen. With the help of his brother Vincent, a renowned Restaurateur (and food snob).
They are on a quest to find the best France has to offer.
There are over 35,000 villages in France, all with their own history, culture, and food. We are on a journey to discover as many of them as we can together. Let’s go.

Great timing. I leave for the airport in 30 minutes for… Paris! This is my sixth visit so have hit all the sites you mention and agree wholeheartedly they are worth a visit. And your food suggestions are most appreciated. Merci!

[@camirivera9278]

Thank you for including how much everything costs and what metro lines to take! Incredibly helpful

[@stevelinahan8022]

Frenchies spot on as usual. Great list and love the commentary on nearby places to eat and metro stops. Only must see site I would add is Musee Rodin. Love the grounds. Latin quarter is still my favorite neighborhood to explore especially in the evening. We have seen all these sites other than the catacombs and been to Paris multiple times. You vlog is so spot on and can help anxious first timers immensely as well as return guests as you usually see some of the same sites again but you advise also how to possibly see them better such as with guides and skip the lines. I enjoy your recommendations on the places to eat but not that concerned either as I consider it part of the experience in exploring and finding another great restaurant. Everyone has their lists. The ambiance in Paris is just so amazing that it pulls you back like a magnet many times. Your videos only scratch the surface but it really provides great guidance to those going to Paris to see the sites. Merci. Oh we usually use the metro to get around at least to a few stops and walk a great deal, usually 6 miles or so a day. Never under estimate that one must wear comfortable shoes and ignory Emily in Paris as you noted on one of your other videos. Merci

[@radboy707]

Antoine and Coleen, We cannot thank you enough. Your videos have been an essential part of our planning. We arrive Tuesday with your guide in hand.

[@MapManLK]

It cracks me up that my partner and I toured Paris in about 1992 and we hit every spot on your list except the catacombs! But then we traveled out to Versailles for one day!

[@urbanjeanie2579]

I wish I knew about your channel 'before' my husband and I went to Paris. I'm kicking myself over all those wonderful places to eat! But I still enjoy watching your channel and reliving the memories. Now I will use your channel to research our next journey to Paris. Thank you for such a wonderful channel. :) Xx

[@robbeyroad6148]

Hi, Frenchie here. IMO one of the hidden gems of Paris would be the Buttes-Chaumont park. It's located northeastern, not the most touristic part of the city, but an amazing park for sure. You can even find cascades there!

[@joho9815]

I love your videos! Great practical advice!

I would add for all history lovers to visit Tomb of Napoleon ^^

[@pandainpearls]

[@ricardorodriguez5549]

I’ve really enjoyed your videos. Thank you! I’ll be in Paris I’m July for my second visit and am taking an old friend for his first. Cannot wait to be walking the streets of that beautiful city again. Of course, walking makes a person thirsty and hungry; luckily, Paris accommodates those appetites like nowhere else.

[@bencruzsf]

Another great video! I will just add two things: 1. The Cafe Marly just across from pyramid at the Louvre where you can have a drink while looking across to the museum and 2. Never miss the Mont Blanc pastry and hot chocolate at Angelina's and pretend you are Coco Chanel who went there every day! :)

Dear Antoine and Colleen, thank you so much for your incredibly informative videos. I'm visiting Paris for the first time in my life for a week with 3 friends in March and was so happy that I found your channel. I can't express how much your guidance has meant to my preparation (I have been tasked with outlining our trip). On top of that you two are so likeable, watchable and fun!

[@Jackofpastorious]

I traveled to Paris in October 2019 and did about 95% of these. I barely took a train. I stayed in Le Marais area. Was within walking distance to everything. Everything pretty much was within an hour walk from my hotel. Half of these within 30 minutes. I recommend the scenic route and walking everywhere but that's my New York brain. The trains are really good in Paris too. So much better than the MTA in nyc.

[@panthor77]

Really enjoying your videos, great production values (especially the graphics) and helpful for someone unfamiliar with Paris. Thank you for the content!

[@addapaz2993]

Excellent! Thank you, train station info was so helpful!

[@Androctonus84]

For anyone who is into natural history, I would strongly recommend the three museums in the Jardin des Plantes. The modern Grand Gallery of Evolution is a world-class modern natural history museum, but I really love the old Gallery of Paleontology and Comparative Anatomy, which is an amazing experience. And for art, I also really love the Musée Rodin.

[@petew1188]

Are the display signs in English?

I’m happy to say I visited almost all of those locations on our very short one week trip to Paris in 2019! Would love to see a video on outdoor markets both food and flea. That is what I had a hard time finding when I was in Paris.

Glad you are back Colleen- besides Rick Steves you folks are so helpful to me - third trip to Paris and I am still learning so much. Givernie might be a suggestion for a future vlog. Barbara

[@stevelinahan8022]

Love that you provide the metro stop too! Some of my favorites for sure but as we know Paris has so many sights to see that everyone has their own lists of top spots as peoples preferences differ so much but you certainly nailed most of them. Love also that you pointed out restaurants to visit at those spots. Always confusing with so many options as to which establishment to go to, however that is also part of the fun.

[@RichardRodriguez-ie4zj]

Thank you for doing these videos as it is helping us plan for our trip later this month. We are looking forward to celebrating our anniversary in Paris. We haven’t been back since we got engaged in the city in 2007. Your videos are helping us create an itinerary and now we just have to figure out how to get to places! Merci!
