In September, E and I flew to Paris for a week. AirBnB apartment and independent sightseeing. In 6 days, I made a total of 100 km on foot and about 1500 photos. The city turned out to be completely different from how I remembered it from my trip 13 years ago, but definitely in a positive way. We managed to visit Versailles, something that had always been on our minds, and go through the gates of hell in the Catacombs.
Good advice for anyone planning a similar trip – three things that saved us a lot of time and nerves: Navigo Découverte, Paris Museum Pass and the Citymapper app.
