Paris, France

WHY SHOULD I VISIT?

We decided to visit both Paris and Amsterdam over our Spring Break in Ireland and it was incredible! We first traveled to Disneyland Paris which was one of the best parts of my time in Europe and completely worth the cost, to me, a crazy Disney person. Then we traveled into Paris and stayed 15 minutes from the Eiffel Tower and got blessed with a view. The next two days were spent in museums and restaurants, with my favorite being Musée d’Orsay and Les Antiquaires, which is conveniently located next to Musée d’Orsay. Overall, I loved the history and architecture of every single building, Paris is a city that is amazing to gaze upon.

THE 'UNMISSABLE' ITINERARY

• Eiffel Tower at night, the lights are breathtaking

• Walk the city as much as you can, take the metro when your tired and stare out the windows

• Crème brûlée, because delicious

• Musée d’Orsay

• Night time boat tour

• Sacré-Cœur, the white basilica, my favorite site of the trip
