You two are sooo helpful! Thanks and ❤Loved it!!!

Another great video Mates. Lots of very pertinent information in this. I especially endorse the basic manners of saying "Bonjour" etc (because it really does go a long way, along with "Merci" and "Sil Vous Plait"), and those fast closing doors on trains. Tourists and locals alike, get caught off guard with those if you're not paying attention. Keep up the great job on these.

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

Thanks for watching and the comment! We appreciate the extra language tips. Good point!

Just back from 3 weeks in Paris (05 March-26 March). Please, please, please stop and just soak it all in. We ran around for days. Looking back we needed more "free time". As stated below, a Bonjour! will go a long way and you will be welcomed everywhere. Skip the hotel rooms with families. Rent a homeaway, vrbo or aribnb. You wont regret it!. Hearing our 2 adult/teen sons talking and just "existing" in earshot makes my heart soar. I hated being in the airport hotel the last night and not hearing or seeing them. Plus shopping at Carrefour or Monoprix is your best bet for some snacks and cost effective cooked meals. Yes, pre book all your tours and special meals as soon as you can. Speaking from experience!

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

That is wonderful that you got to spend three weeks in Paris with your family. Thanks for sharing your experience and tips. Those extended stays allow time to soak up the city feel and life.

[@tyralewis6263]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing! Which arrondismont/neighborhood did you stay in? Traveling in late April and wanted to see which location would be best

[@BigStevo_6]

@@tyralewis6263 The 6th. In the heart of Saint Germain. Our home away from home. Around the corner from Cafe de Flore and Les Deux Magots. And Louis Vuitton!

Bravo Erica and Jordan, a magnificent video that perfectly explains the things to do for a perfect visit to Paris. I strongly advise all tourists to watch this video, between the French words to know (the French are happy when you make the effort to say them) and the magnificent places to visit (the Luxembourg gardens are an absolute must). Advice to follow absolutely.

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

Merci, Emmanuelle! That is such wonderful feedback, we appreciate it!

[@kristenmarielle3497]

[@memyself2247]

Great video ! Ty ! Going in the last week of Oct til beg of November, going to do a France road trip and planning three days in Paris ... which is the best arrondismont/neighborhood to stay in with great night life for a couple,with more local people living and is also walking distance from most sites ??

[@nanfrimodig3686]

Oh my goodness. Such a great helpful video. Will definitely be downloading your information. Thank you so much. Does the Seine river tour pick up and drop off at the same location? That’s the only thing I was confused on.

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

Yes! It picks up and drops off at the same location. Thanks for watching!

[@sunflowermoon413]

How do you feel about April near the tower.?

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

Do it! good shoulder season month to visit.

[@TEAMP1ZZA]

What camera and camera equipment do you use for your around the city parts? Thanks!

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

Thanks for watching! We used a GoPro 10 for most of the shots. We know use a DJI Pocket which is a lot smoother and a better picture.

[@ladygadventures4144]

How about visiting on March? We are planning to visit on march 11-16.

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

It is a good shoulder season month to visit. Less crowds and hopefully it is warming up for spring. Paris with a chill is still cozy!

If you get a Navigo Metro pass 1) each person needs one. You can’t go thru the turnstle and then pass the Navigo back to another person. 2) to me the turnstyle was slow in opening so I thought the pass didn’t regisister so I tapped again. But that made the turnstyle think that I was having another petson use my pass and so it didn’t open. We got that straightened out with an attendent, but it irritated me each time.

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

We got the Navi go on our phones which made it very easy. Our six year old got his own card and he loved that.

[@Megan-nw7wv]

Very helpful video. I saw in a couple of your clips the mom was carrying what looks like a sort of scooter or something. We have a 5 year old we will be traveling with who we know won't be able to walk the whole time, but a stroller seems overkill. Just wondering if you can recommend some options, other than Dad carrying him a lot :)

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

We were carrying a babyzen yoyo stroller. It is a great travel stroller but overkill for a five year old. I’d be nervous about a scooter as the streets and sidewalks can be hectic. Take the metro often?

[@pandafragrance]

If a waiter is asking for a tip tell him to pound sand. They absolutely do not ask Parisians for tips.

[@artcafe2684]

First rule of thumb when traveling, be polite. Say hello (even if it's just Allo). Learn to ask "Do you speak English" in the native language. You don't go to your local Grocery store or ice cream and start demanding stuff. They usually greet you, you greet them and then you order or ask you question. If you are an A-Hole anywhere people will treat like one. So whether you go to Paris, New York, or your local ice cream store. Be polite. It guarantees people won't spit in your food.

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

Solid tips. We share the same, core travel advice transcends locations. Be a kind human.

[@wberckmann]

Tips: Don't buy the Paris Visite pass, buy the passe Navigo, much less expensive. Toilets, ask where the phone is in a cafe, if they have one. They're always located downstairs by the toilets and no purchase is necessary.

[@siewyeetsen2481]

They still using paper metro tickets? I tot they abolished it couple of years back?

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

Nope, we used them on our last trip. Not as convenient but it made sense for us.

[@steel148]

@@YourGuidesAbroadNavigo Easy card with un carnet is a better option

[@geoffreygraham3262]

Sorry, but you need a better microphone and acoustic environment (less echo).

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@WeneedpeaceNlovefromJC777]

I hope I won’t be regret going to this beautiful city because they have strike all the time specially 2024 metro strike from feb to Sep 9 , again strike on Olympic month are u kidding me ?!! 😡🤬

[@YourGuidesAbroad]

You won’t regret! Have a great time.
