PARIS · 3 days · relaxed pace

Three days in Paris, with time between the icons

A river day, an art day and a neighbourhood day. Choose one main reservation each day and leave the rest of Paris room to surprise you.

Three days in Paris, with time between the icons

Our suggested time allowances include breaks and buffers; they are not live opening hours or guaranteed journey times. Map pins identify the area, not your ticket’s meeting point.

DAY 1

Day 1 · The Eiffel Tower and the Seine

Set your tower visit around the floor and entry time you can actually book. The riverside walk is flexible.

Open directions ↗
  1. Eiffel Tower
  2. Seine by the Eiffel Tower
Loads OpenStreetMap. The marker shows the first stop; use directions for the full route.

Route order is a planning suggestion. Check current ferry services, road access and travel times before setting off.

Eiffel Tower
STOP 1 · Morning · allow 2–3 hours

Eiffel Tower

Decide between the second floor and summit before comparing prices. Your booked entry does not remove the need for security checks.

Getting there: Start at the security entrance stated on your ticket.

Seine by the Eiffel Tower
STOP 2 · Afternoon · allow 90–120 min

Seine by the Eiffel Tower

Take a riverside pause or add a sightseeing cruise. Dinner cruises and one-hour sightseeing departures suit different plans.

Getting there: Walk to the river after lunch; allow 15–20 min and confirm your boat’s pier.

DAY 2

Day 2 · Art and a garden break

Switch the days if the Louvre is closed or no suitable reservation is available. Do not add another large museum just to fill the afternoon.

Louvre Museum
STOP 1 · Morning · allow 3–4 hours

Louvre Museum

Choose two or three collections before arriving. Give yourself time for orientation, security and a proper break; seeing the entire museum is not a one-morning goal.

Getting there: Start at the entrance and queue specified on your reservation.

Tuileries Garden
STOP 2 · Afternoon · allow 60–90 min

Tuileries Garden

Use the garden for a slower outdoor finish. The wider city photo puts the river and central Paris into context; follow the map for the garden itself.

Getting there: Walk west from the Louvre; budget 15–25 min at an easy pace.

DAY 3

Day 3 · Montmartre without a checklist

This is the flexible day. The hills and steps can be tiring; adapt your route if you need step-free access.

Montmartre
STOP 1 · Late morning · allow 2 hours

Montmartre

Spend time in the streets rather than travelling from landmark to landmark. Leave space for a bakery stop and lunch.

Getting there: Arrive in the neighbourhood by public transport; choose an approach that suits your mobility.

Sacré-Cœur surroundings
STOP 2 · Afternoon · allow 60–90 min

Sacré-Cœur surroundings

Finish with the city view. Entry to any separate paid area and religious-service restrictions should be checked locally; this route does not include a ticket.

Getting there: Continue uphill; allow 20–30 min with rests or check the funicular.
