Paris. It’s the dream destination for many fashionista, isn’t it? As the home of Chanel, Dior and Céline – who wouldn’t love to explore the exquisite boutiques of the most romantic city in the world?  

If you want to explore Paris in style, you’ve come to the right place. Take a look at this travel guide with a twist to help you explore Paris like a Parisian.

Eating

Paris is packed with amazing restaurants and cafes, and meal times call for enjoyment. While it may be tempting to try some of Paris’ most famous places to eat, you’ll actually discover some amazing spots if you go off the beaten track. Take a look at some of Paris’ best-kept restaurant secrets and discover some truly amazing places in the French capital.

Drinking

Paris’ bar scene is constantly evolving, with some excellent options for people looking to get a taste of the city’s chic nightlife. Le Faust is a top choice for people watching along the Seine, while those wishing to enjoy rooftop views of the city will love Nuba. There are plenty of great bars to enjoy soaking up the Parisian atmosphere at night, so enjoy checking out some of the city’s best loved-bars. If cocktails are a little out of your budget, indulge in some more affordable French wine instead – it’s what they’re famous for after all!

Visiting

While you could easily Google for lists of must-see Paris attractions, they’re likely to be crowded and could make exploring more stressful than enjoyable. Instead of hitting the obvious spots like the Louvre and Eiffel Tower, check out the Musée de l’Orangerie to witness Monet’s beautiful water lily paintings. The best way to explore Paris’ best sights is to book visits with a Paris tours operator who can offer queue jumps, key highlights and expert local knowledge to help you make the most of your time in the city. If you’re short on time, a guided visit can be the best way to take in the best that Paris has to offer.

Shopping

It wouldn’t be a visit to Paris without a spot of shopping. Whether you want to explore designer brands or enjoy a spot of beauty shopping at Sephora, you’ll find plenty of places to shop in Paris. If you’re interested in picking up items from French brands in particular, make sure you do your homework and find out where you can get the best price. It’s not worth buying American brands during your travels as these will be more expensive than back home.

Paris offers so many wonderful experiences, and it’s worth soaking it all up during your visit. To get a real taste of the local flavor, avoid the typical tourist spots and head off the beaten track instead. Like most big cities, a detour off the main streets can lead you to some wonderful places that are loved by the locals, while also saving you some money. Enjoy exploring Paris like a true Parisian for the trip to remember and memories that will last a lifetime.
