Day 1

Follow the itinerary for One Day in Paris.

Day 2

Go to the Ile de la Cité for a climb up into the Towers of Notre-Dame, then to the nearby Palais de Justice to admire the the splendid Sainte Chapelle and the gloomy Conciergerie.

Explore the Latin Quarter before taking the Métro to the Trocadéro station for a walk downhill from the Palais de Chaillot to the Eiffel Tower, the Champ-de-Mars, and Napoleon's Tomb in the Invalides.

Too much? Spend a restful hour in one of Paris's splendid parks or gardens. Our favorite—and close to the center—is the Jardin du Luxembourg. You can even have lunch there, and if you have children with you, there's a playground and other amusements. More...

 

Along the way, don't forget to sit in a Parisian café and enjoy the ambiance, the people-watching, the coffee (and/or wine), and the thought that...you're in Paris!

Should you have any extra time, see our 3 Days in Paris and 4 to 5 Days in Paris itineraries.
