Paris Itinerary 4 Days at a Glance
Highlights






Day by Day Itinerary
Day 1
Summary: Start your day exploring the charming streets and stunning views from the Sacré-Cœur Basilica in Montmartre. From there, make your way to the elegant La Madeleine church. End your day with a magical evening boat ride on the Seine to see the city’s landmarks lit up at night.
The Artistic Heights of Montmartre and Eiffel Tower
A route for the day: Square Louise Michel – Sacré-Cœur – Église de la Madeleine – Eiffel Tower
Square Louise Michel
Getting around Paris by public transportation, especially the metro, is the best choice. Your first stop should be Square Louise Michel. It’s a stunning garden square with some of the best views in Paris. The sight of beautiful flowers, blooming trees, and people relaxing on the grass with croissants and coffee is wonderful to observe.
The magnificent Sacré-Cœur Basilica in the background makes the scene even more spectacular. Here, you’ll find plenty of spots for amazing photos and panoramic views of Paris, making it a beautiful place to start your journey through the city.


Sacré-Cœur Basilica
Next up is the Sacré-Cœur Basilica, one of the most iconic landmarks in Paris, seemingly hovering over the cityscape from every angle. It’s another place that offers amazing views of the city.
The ‘wow’ moment!
This is where I had my first true “wow” moment. After climbing the stairs and taking photos of the basilica, I turn around and see my first-ever glimpse of the Eiffel Tower—just its tip visible above the buildings, streets, and trees. It was such an exciting sight, knowing I would be visiting the famous icon later.


Entry to the Basilica and dome
Entry to the Sacré-Cœur Basilica itself is completely free, though you’ll likely have to wait in a queue. The stunning interior is worth every minute in line.


While climbing the dome isn’t on this specific itinerary, it’s a worthwhile visit if you have the time and budget. The price is around €8 for adults and €5 for children. The climb involves nearly 300 steps, giving you a closer look at the basilica’s unique architecture before rewarding you with a 360-degree panoramic view of Paris. Read more about the dome at Sacre-Coeur-Montmartre!
Église de la Madeleine
The magnificent Église de la Madeleine offers more than just architecture; its steps are a top spot for lunch or a late breakfast in the La Madeleine area. As we approach, we see many locals enjoying coffee and snacks, using the grand building as a stunning backdrop for a daily rest.
This spot seems to be less of a tourist magnet. The interior was nearly empty, creating a peaceful atmosphere perfect for quiet reflection amidst the beautiful wall decorations. It’s a very photogenic place and well worth a visit for both its lively exterior steps, towering pillars and its serene interior. It’s a sign of God’s tenderness.


Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower is the icon of Paris and one of the most famous structures in the world. A visit is an essential part of any trip to the city. While it is incredibly popular with tourists, this also means that access is well-managed, preventing it from feeling overly crowded.
The tower is an amazing sight from every angle. As you walk around it, you’ll find that each new perspective is beautiful—which is true for so much of Paris, where style and beauty seem to be everywhere.

The wow moment has come
Instead of the elevator, consider taking the stairs up the Eiffel Tower. It’s not only a cheaper option but also a more memorable and rewarding one.




Choosing the stairs allows you to fully immerse yourself in the landmark. It’s a fun challenge that lets you earn the spectacular views from the top. More importantly, climbing the steel lattice gives you a unique and intimate understanding of the tower’s engineering and construction that you simply can’t get from a quick elevator ride.
So how to do this?
Our ticket included the stair climb to the second floor via the first, then a ride to the top and back. As we climb, we watch the city shrink below us. Although the ascent is hard—sometimes really hard—it was a truly enjoyable experience.
Reaching the first and second floors, we were rewarded with incredible views. It was so much fun to look out and spot places we had already been or planned to visit in the coming days. It’s the perfect way to continue our first day in Paris! Buy your online tickets in advance at Tour Eiffel official website!



From the second floor, we took the elevator to the very top. The view is stunning, and it’s incredible to think about how high you are while taking in the city’s vibe and architecture. However, in my opinion, the view from the second floor is actually better. You can see all the same landmarks as you can from the top, but being closer allows you to appreciate them in much more detail, which I found more beautiful.
You can also toast your visit with a glass of champagne at the top for about €25. A bit pricey, but is it worth it? I’ll let you be the judge…
Seine river cruise
After a long photo session under and around the Eiffel Tower, the perfect way to conclude your first day is with a relaxing evening cruise on the Seine. This is your chance to see firsthand why Paris is called the “City of Light”.



Finding a cruise on the spot is certainly an option. The banks of the Seine, particularly on the Eiffel Tower side, are lined with numerous boat operators. With so many vessels, it’s highly unlikely that you’ll find them all to be full.
For a standard one-hour trip without any extras, prices typically range from €15 to €25. It’s wise to be prepared with cash, as some of the smaller vendors may not accept credit cards. Most cruises will have free audio guides available at your seat to point out the landmarks as you pass.
However, my personal suggestion is to book your river cruise online in advance. Doing so allows you to research different companies and choose the specific cruise you like, ensuring you have all the necessary information and your ticket on hand. This saves you the valuable time and effort you might otherwise spend wandering along the riverbank looking for the best option. Look into Seine River Cruises!
Day 2
Summary: Prepare for a full-day adventure at Disneyland, perfect for both kids and adults. Your first visit will be a whirlwind of amazing sights, fun attractions, and lots of walking. Remember to book your tickets in advance to get in faster, and don’t forget a raincoat!
A dream of Disneyland

For first-time visitors, a trip to Paris would be incomplete without experiencing Disneyland. It’s a place built on childhood, beautiful stories, and dreams—an essential experience for the young at heart. It’s less about high-octane thrills and more about immersing yourself in a world designed for your inner child and imagination.
If you only have one day, focus on Disneyland Park. This is where the true essence of Disney lives. The magic for adults is found in wandering the beautiful alleys, charming squares, and detailed themed lands, while the classic rides are sure to delight your inner child.
Experiencing Disneyland Park
My first expectation of Disneyland is the iconic dream castle you always see before a Disney movie. So, upon arrival, my first thought is, “Wait, where is it?” Instead of a castle, I’m greeted by a smiling Minnie Mouse made of flowers and a charming pink manor.
Once inside the gates, the quest for the castle begins. A great first step is to hop on the little train—the Disneyland Railroad—which circles the park and helps you get your bearings. However, I think if you don’t have a specific list of “must-dos,” the best approach is simply to go with the flow and let the magic guide you.




I had a few must-dos, such as Pirates of the Caribbean (I’m a fan), Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril, and the cool experience at Phantom Manor. So, the choo-choo train was great for planning it all and understanding the layout. For first-timers, La Cabane des Robinson is also a very interesting way to experience the theme park.
The Castle
Once the plan is ready, it’s time to get that castle view already. After jumping off the train, we started searching for it, exploring the cool hats, Mickey ears, and other fun stuff in the cute cafes and little shops lining the main alley along the way.
Then, right in front of us—what’s that? The castle, with its stunning, beautiful, and dreamy towers, just like from the movies. It’s surrounded by amazing areas, with something different to discover on each side.
After that, it’s time to experience the must-dos, and for any leftover time until 5 p.m., it’s best to just go with the flow. Around 5 p.m., you have two choices: enjoy the park while others watch the parade, or watch the famous parade at 5:30 p.m.
If you want to see the parade, you’ll need to find a spot early to get a good view, because there are just so many people. Keep in mind, the parade route runs mostly in front of the Castle and through the main alley!






The last thing left to do is watch the closing light and fireworks show. It’s a show you absolutely need to see; you’ll only find something like that in your imagination, beyond even what you see in the movies. It is the best show in Disneyland Paris.
You can find all schedules which depend on the season, and tickets on the official Disneyland Paris website!
Day 3
Art and Afterlife
Summary: Start your day by exploring the Louvre Museum. Afterwards, take a beautiful walk through the Luxembourg Gardens on your way to the Paris Catacombs. For a true Parisian experience, grab a bite of escargots (snails), and finish your day watching the Eiffel Tower sparkle.
A route for the day: Louvre Museum – Jardin du Luxembourg – Catacombs of Paris – Eiffel Tower
Louvre Museum
The Louvre is more than a museum; it’s a sprawling city of art housed in a former royal palace. Its sheer size can be overwhelming, but don’t let that intimidate you. With a smart plan, you can navigate its labyrinthine halls to witness some of humanity’s greatest artistic achievements and most beautiful rooms without getting lost. Just buy your tickets in advance for a convenient time slot at Louvre official website!

Jardin du Luxembourg
After exploring the Louvre, the Luxembourg Gardens are a great choice for a stop on your way to the Paris Catacombs, easily reachable by public transport. This lovely park features beautiful gardens, the Musée du Luxembourg, and the famous pond where children sail small model yachts, known as Les Voiliers du Luxembourg.
You can rent one of these small boats, which often feature different country flags, and navigate it yourself in the water. It’s a charming scene, with locals sitting by the water reading, eating, and watching their kids play.


A walk through the park
The Luxembourg Gardens feature many beautiful walking paths that you can explore at your own pace, never knowing what lovely sight is just around the corner.

As you walk the paths, you’ll discover beautiful sculptures and quiet corners with chairs, perfect for taking a moment to feel the nature in the heart of the city.
Mysteries of the Catacombs
The last stop is the Catacombs of Paris, a mystery under the city that many tourists may not know about—especially those who aren’t interested in seeing human bones and skulls in the City of Light.
Catacombs of Paris
Seeing rows and walls of bones and skulls beneath Paris is a weird, memorable, and sad experience. It’s worth it once in a lifetime, though. Where else can you walk past walls made of the skulls and bones of so many people? It’s a powerful story of millions of bones, each with its own history—from the perfectly intact to the tragically damaged (cracked and shot skulls)—all gathered in one place. The route is 1.5 km circuit, plan on an hour-long visit, there are 131 steps to go down and 112 steps to climb up, the temperature is approximately 14°C.

Why they made Catacombs?
The Paris Catacombs are a vast underground ossuary holding the remains of over six million people. They were created in the late 18th century to solve a public health crisis caused by overflowing city cemeteries. After a wall collapse spilled remains into a local property, authorities began transferring bones from the cemeteries into a network of abandoned limestone quarries beneath the city.
To visit the Paris Catacombs, it is essential to book your ticket for a specific time slot in advance, as getting in without one is very difficult. For more information and to buy tickets, visit the official website: Les Catacombes de Paris.
Finally, a very serious reminder: do not take any skulls or bones. This is deeply immoral and is punished harshly by law as a profanation of a grave, with severe fines and potential prison time.
An Eiffel Tower sparkle
The last thing for the day is to catch the Eiffel Tower sparkle. Make sure to stop by the tower on your way back to your accommodation. I suggest trying to do this every evening you’re in Paris; the sparkle only lasts for five minutes starting on every new hour after sunset, so it can be easy to miss on a busy day, but it is a truly beautiful and magical sight.
Day 4
Summary: Start your last day like a true Parisian at the Marché aux Puces (the famous flea market). Afterwards, enjoy a classic stroll down the Champs-Élysées to see the Arc de Triomphe to Place de La Concorde and Petit Palais. See Notre Dame from the outside, then head to the Trocadéro for the best viewpoint of the Eiffel Tower for a photoshoot. Nearby, you can spot Paris’s own Statue of Liberty before taking the scenic Tram 6 route back to Trocadéro. Time your evening to be back at Champ de Mars to watch the Eiffel Tower sparkle.
Flea Markets, Famous Avenues & Eiffel Tower Sparkles
A route for the day: Marché aux Puces – Arc de Triomphe – Petit Palais- Place de La Concorde – Notre Dame – Place du Trocadéro – L’île aux Cygnes – Place du Trocadéro – Champ de Mars
Marché aux Puces
This classic market is a great way to experience the city from a different angle in the morning. You’ll find old and new things, accessories for your home and yourself, comic book memorabilia, and even an alien ship among the endless alleys of different traders. After exploring the market, jump on the metro and head to the Arc de Triomphe.


Marché aux Puces working hours
When planning your visit to Marché aux Puces, note the following permanent opening days and general hours:
- Saturday & Sunday: 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.
- Monday: 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Keep in mind that the hours for individual traders may differ slightly.
Champs-Élysées
Aux Champs-Élysées; Aux Champs-Élysées; Au soleil, sous la pluie; À midi ou à minuit; Il y a tout c’que vous voulez; Aux Champs-Élysées! (Les Champs-Elysées – Song by Joe Dassin ‧ 1969)
Arc de Triomphe



As the song already says, you can find anything on Champs-Élysées, first of all Arc De Triomphe, jump off the transportation and head straight down to Arc De Triomphe where the Champs-Élysées end, yes we will be going in the opposide direction. This is one of the many beautiful buildings in Paris and worth a look at. Then continue down the street, grab a macaron at Ladurée best pastry shop on Champs-Élysées!
Petit Palais
Next thing you’ll find there is a Palais. Yeah, there is this Grand Palais (a tourist trap, I think), so we go to the Petit Palais. It’s a hidden gem waiting to not be discovered—yeah, you heard right. I hope it doesn’t get discovered by the big crowds, because it’s a cozy haven of peace and beauty to grab a coffee at and eat your best macarons you bought previously on Champs-Élysées!
The entry is free, and it features a cozy cafe and a beautiful garden surrounded by the building. It’s a beautiful escape from the crowds, with stunning trees and flowers that are in full bloom between March and April. In the rooms, you’ll find a free art gallery and beautifully made rooms. Such a paradise.



Place de La Concorde
The largest square in Paris, but first it was known as one of the places of execution during the French Revolution.

This is the beginning of Champs-Élysées where we end a walk on Champs-Élysées, before heading to Notre-Dame Cathedral of Paris. In modern Paris, a temporary stand is built in the square each year from which dignitaries review the military parade on Bastille Day.
Also standing here is an ancient Egyptian obelisk, brought from Luxor, Egypt. The so-called Luxor Obelisk is made of red granite, measures 22.5 metres in height and weighs an estimated 227 tonnes. This obelisk and its pair, that still stands in front of the first pylon of the temple in Luxor, were the largest obelisks to have been erected by Ramses II in Egypt. Read more about it at Archaeology Travel!
Notre Dame Cathedral of Paris
The beautiful and important exterior of Notre Dame was still under renovation in March 2025, and walking around it, you could see how the fire had damaged the stunning architecture. Due to the long queues and our busy schedule, we decided not to go inside. Just taking a look from the outside was worth it—simply walking by and seeing it in real life.
The restored interior now features gleaming white stone, new bronze furnishings, a modern altar, and the original stained-glass windows, aiming to emulate its historic 13th-century look. So, if you are interested and have a ticket booked in advance, it is definitely worth going in.

After Notre Dame, we’re making our way to L’île aux Cygnes, with a quick stop at Place du Trocadéro since it’s on the way! And here is a beautiful photo of a Parisian building near the Saint Paul metro station.

Place du Trocadéro
Place du Trocadéro is a fantastic viewpoint for the Eiffel Tower and an amazing place to take beautiful photos while grabbing a crêpe.
If you have extra time, you can also find a couple of museums to explore in the area, such as the Palais de Chaillot, Musée de la Marine, Aquarium de Paris, Cité de l’architecture et du patrimoine, and the Musée de l’Homme.

L’île aux Cygnes – Paris Statue de la Liberté
Did you know that there is a small copy of New York’s Statue Of Liberty in Paris? Paris is home to several replicas of this iconic symbol of freedom, the most notable of which is located on the Île aux Cygnes (Swan Island).
This quarter-scale replica, standing at approximately 11.5 meters (37 feet 9 inches) tall, is a significant landmark in itself, embodying the enduring friendship between France and the United States.
These various Statues of Liberty scattered throughout Paris serve as a constant reminder of the monument’s French origins and the transatlantic bonds it represents. The original statue, a gift from the people of France to the United States in 1886, was designed by Bartholdi with its metal framework engineered by Gustave Eiffel, the creator of the Eiffel Tower.

Tram route 6 – Place du Trocadéro, Jardins du Trocadéro
Tramway Line 6 (T6) – Châtillon – Montrouge and Viroflay – Rive Droite
This is one of the most scenic routes in Paris. You get a perfect view of the Eiffel Tower on the right side when traveling in the direction of Nation, and on the left side when heading towards Charles de Gaulle-Étoile.
For this itinerary, we’re going from Bir-Hakeim to Trocadéro, so the view will be on your right. To get to the Bir-Hakeim station from the Statue of Liberty, you’ll cross the entire L’île aux Cygnes to the Pont de Bir-Hakeim bridge, which offers its own beautiful views.
Arriving at Trocadéro, you can then catch some lovely dawn views of the Eiffel Tower as you walk down through the Jardins du Trocadéro towards the Champ de Mars.




Champ de Mars: A sparkling end to your day
The best way to conclude this Parisian getaway is with a little sparkle. The Champ de Mars is a fantastic place to get a close-up view of this event. Although it’s a popular spot and many people will be there, the park is large enough that you can still find a great spot to enjoy the beautiful spectacle.
Eiffel Tower Sparkle Schedule
The Eiffel Tower sparkles for five minutes at the beginning of every hour after sunset.
- Schedule: On the hour, every hour, from sunset until 11:00 PM (23:00).
- How it works: The tower’s golden illumination stays on, and an additional 20,000 flashing bulbs create the sparkling effect.
- Tip: Arrive a few minutes before the hour to get your spot and have your camera ready!

Where to stay?
A key to navigating Paris is understanding its arrondissements (districts). We stayed on the edge of the 18th, which proved to be an excellent and affordable base for exploring. The nearby Garibaldi metro station made getting around the city easy.
– For group of 6: “The Photographer’s House” at Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine was a great option for us.
The best arrondissements to stay in Paris usually depend on the vibe you want:
– 18th (Montmartre): Romantic, artsy, bohemian, though a bit touristy
– 1st & 4th (Louvre, Le Marais): Central, historic, perfect for first-timers.
– 5th & 6th (Latin Quarter, Saint-Germain): Charming, lively, full of cafés, bookstores, and student energy.
– 7th: Home to the Eiffel Tower, elegant and quiet, but pricier.
– 9th & 10th: Trendy, more affordable, with great food and nightlife.
How to Use the Paris Métro & Bus System?
Paris public transportation is very convenient, and you can get anywhere with it. While the Metro and RER stations can be confusing at first with their many stairs and platforms, it gets easier. I highly recommend using the Île-de-France Mobilités (Android app), (iOS app) or official website to navigate; it shows you every transport option and helps you plan your journey.
Tickets information, Buying a Navigo Pass vs. Single Tickets
Regarding tickets, you can use your mobile phone with NFC. Once you scan your ticket and go through the gates, look for the direction signs on the walls or screens. To get where you need to go, simply follow the directions for your line and destination. However, we found that the gates sometimes failed to open when scanning a mobile ticket. While we saw some people pushing through the gates in these situations, we did that too, but I would suggest getting a physical ticket if you have the time, to avoid any potential issues.
Ticket types
Paris offers various public transport ticket types. You can find all combos on the Île-de-France Mobilités website, but here are some key options:
- Single Ticket: A one-way metro/RER ride costs €2.50. A single bus or tram ride is €2.00.
- Navigo Day Pass: This costs €12.00 per day for unlimited travel in all zones (excluding airports), includes Disneyland.
- Navigo Week Pass: For €31.60, you get unlimited travel for a full week in all zones. You can also buy cheaper versions for fewer zones if you know where you’ll be traveling this pass includes Disneyland too.
Important: The Navigo Week Pass is strictly valid from Monday to Sunday. For example, if your trip is from Friday to Tuesday, you would need to buy one week pass for Friday-Sunday and then two day passes (or another week pass) for Monday-Tuesday. If you want to buy ticket at door it costs 2.50 everywhere!
If you want to use your mobile phone as your transport ticket, here’s what you need to know:
- Required Apps: You will need to download a couple of apps. For navigation and general information, use Île-de-France Mobilités or Bonjour RATP. For buying and managing your tickets, you will need the “My Navigo Tickets” app.
- Phone Requirements: Your phone must have NFC technology, and it must be turned on.
- How to Use: Your phone itself becomes the ticket. Simply unlock your phone and hold it over the sensor at the station gates or on the bus readers. You do not need to have the app open. The gates will open, or the reader on the bus will light up green. That’s it!
Tips for Navigating the City on Foot
Paris is an amazingly beautiful but huge city, and it’s truly worth exploring on foot. The sidewalks are great, and because there are so many beautiful buildings, you’ll see more while walking. A great strategy is to take public transport to a specific area and then explore on foot as you make your way from one sight to another. Another wonderful thing about Paris is that you’ll discover many beautiful green spaces and parks during your walks, and each one is worth strolling through.
Security checks!
You’ll quickly notice that Paris has security checkpoints almost everywhere—at museums, galleries, and any major tourist site. At first, it might seem like a lot, but honestly, it’s not a bad thing. It actually made me feel very safe. They’re doing a really good job, and I’ve never seen so much security in other big European cities, not even in places like Frankfurt which didn’t fell safe at all.
So, a good tip when exploring Paris is to pack light. Just take the essentials in a small bag so you can pass through the checkpoints quickly. If you happen to forget something, it’s easy to hop on the metro or bus and go back to your accommodation.
Important: Beware of pickpockets. Paris is full of them, especially on public transportation, at metro stops, on station escalators, and in any crowded place.
Always keep your belongings in sight. Wear backpacks and handbags in front of you and keep them secured. Never look away from your things, even for a second. These thieves are incredibly skilled at what they do; you might not even notice anything is missing until you later find your wallet empty inside your closed backpack!!!
Conclusion
A trip to Paris is a must, and you’ll probably want to go back again and again. You should be aware of the reality of the city—sometimes the streets can be smelly, and you will see a lot of immigrants and homeless people sleeping in tents under bridges, on streets in slepping bags and sometimes in the metro stations. It is what it is, but don’t let that deter you. Paris remains a wonderful city, full of beauty waiting to be discovered.
Also, don’t try to see everything at once. The city looks small on a map, but in real life, it’s huge, and trying to explore every small corner, park, gallery, building and museum on a short trip would be exhausting. Each arrondissement provides a unique experience, so it’s best to focus on a few at a time.
When on vacation, always remember: Travel and exploration are all about the joy of discovery. So, always leave room for the unexpected on your journeys and remember – Leave No Trace Principles. You never know what delightful surprises await you!
