Paris airports
Two main airports for flights to Paris
Paris Charles de Gaulle
Often referred to as Roissy, this is the city's main international airport. It handles a huge range of long-haul and European routes and is usually the airport offering the widest choice of direct international connections to Paris.
Paris Orly
Located south of the capital, Orly handles a large number of domestic, European and Mediterranean routes, including services operated by low-cost airlines.
Depending on your departure city, comparing CDG and ORY when looking for cheap flights to Paris can reveal significantly different schedules and fares.
Identity
The City of Light, one of the world's great travel capitals
Paris is one of the most visited cities in the world, drawing travellers for a combination few destinations can match. World-famous monuments and museums sit alongside fashion houses, historic cafés, neighbourhood markets, celebrated restaurants and an image of romance shaped by generations of cinema, photography and literature. The nickname "City of Light" is often associated both with Paris's intellectual influence during the Enlightenment and with its early adoption of urban street lighting.
Today, the name still feels appropriate after sunset, when landmarks along the Seine and across the historic centre light up one after another. Whether you come for a weekend city break, museums, shopping, food, nightlife or a family holiday, the number of activities and attractions in Paris makes it possible to build very different trips around the same city.
The symbol
The Eiffel Tower
Built for the 1889 Exposition Universelle, the Eiffel Tower was originally intended to be a temporary structure. It went on to become the defining symbol of Paris and one of the world's best-known monuments. Visitors can experience it from several viewpoints across the city or book access to its different levels for panoramic views over Paris. After nightfall, its illumination and regular sparkling display make the tower particularly striking. Because demand can be high, especially during weekends, school holidays and summer, travellers may prefer to organise Eiffel Tower tickets or guided visits before arriving.
History & architecture
The Louvre and Parisian heritage
Once a royal palace, the Louvre Museum is today one of the largest and most important museums in the world. Its collections span thousands of years and include masterpieces such as the Mona Lisa, the Winged Victory of Samothrace and the Venus de Milo. The glass pyramid completed in 1989 created a striking contemporary entrance within the historic palace complex and became a Paris landmark in its own right. That dialogue between different architectural periods appears throughout the capital: medieval Notre-Dame, Haussmann-era boulevards, grand 19th-century buildings and contemporary districts such as La Défense all contribute to the city's visual identity. For first-time visitors, Louvre tickets and guided museum tours are among the most popular cultural experiences in Paris.
Luxury & shopping
The Champs-Élysées and Arc de Triomphe
The Avenue des Champs-Élysées stretches between Place de la Concorde and the Arc de Triomphe. The avenue and surrounding districts form one of Paris's most famous shopping areas, with international brands, flagship stores, restaurants and luxury boutiques nearby. Paris remains one of the major global centres of fashion and luxury. Beyond the Champs-Élysées, visitors can explore historic department stores, haute couture houses, jewellery boutiques and shopping districts around Boulevard Haussmann, Rue Saint-Honoré and Avenue Montaigne. At the western end of the avenue stands the Arc de Triomphe. Visitors can climb to its terrace for a panoramic view across the avenues radiating from Place Charles-de-Gaulle, including a direct perspective down the Champs-Élysées.
Discover
Montmartre, the romantic side of Paris
Set on one of the highest hills in Paris, Montmartre still retains traces of its former village atmosphere. Cobbled lanes, stairways, cafés and small squares wind around the district below the white dome of the Sacré-Cœur Basilica. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Montmartre became closely associated with artists, writers and bohemian life. Today it remains one of the most photographed neighbourhoods in Paris and one of the places most strongly connected with the romantic image of the city. A guided Montmartre walking tour can help travellers discover artist studios, hidden streets and stories that are easy to miss when simply following the main tourist route.
Nightlife
Paris after dark
Paris changes character after sunset. Different neighbourhoods offer very different styles of nightlife. Pigalle is associated with historic cabarets and venues such as the Moulin Rouge. The Marais combines cocktail bars, restaurants and lively streets, while areas around Oberkampf are known for bars, music venues and a more alternative atmosphere.
During the warmer months, riverside terraces and boats along the Seine become particularly popular. For travellers who want something quieter, an evening Seine river cruise remains one of the classic ways to see the Eiffel Tower, Louvre, Notre-Dame and other illuminated landmarks from the water. Dinner cruises, sightseeing cruises and sunset departures are among the most frequently booked experiences in Paris.
Gastronomy
From neighbourhood bakeries to fine dining
Parisian food culture is not limited to prestigious restaurants. A large part of the city's culinary identity is found in local bakeries, cafés, markets, bistros and neighbourhood restaurants.
| What to try | Why |
|---|---|
| Croissant & baguette | A classic Paris morning ritual, with artisan bakeries found throughout the city. |
| Steak-frites | One of the enduring staples of traditional Parisian bistros. |
| Food markets | Markets such as Bastille and Aligre are excellent places to discover cheeses, charcuterie, produce and other French specialities. |
Paris also lends itself particularly well to food tours, pastry tastings, market visits, wine experiences and French cooking classes. These activities can be a good way to discover neighbourhoods while learning more about French cuisine.
Family attractions
Disneyland Paris and Parc Astérix
Paris can also work extremely well as a family destination. Disneyland Paris, east of the capital, combines two theme parks with hotels, restaurants and entertainment areas and is one of Europe's major leisure destinations. Visitors can reach the resort from central Paris by public transport or organise dedicated transfers. North of Paris, Parc Astérix offers a very different experience based on the French comic-book universe of Astérix and Obélix, with roller coasters, family attractions and themed areas. Both parks make it possible to combine a cultural stay in Paris with one or more full days dedicated to family entertainment. SniperAir can also surface theme-park tickets, transfers and related experiences when available.
