Paris is a beautiful, magical place. No wonder it is the most popular tourist destination in the world! But no matter how wonderful Paris is, how a visitor experiences the city can vary widely. One person may have an amazing time, another might be disappointed. Why? Well, of course, some of it is due to differences of taste. But, in many cases, the disappointed visitor may not have arrived with the specific knowledge needed to avoid pitfalls and customize the experience according to their own interests (and stamina). Maybe she struggled to figure out how to use the metro, or maybe he was surprised that the bargain hotel he booked was actually located in the suburbs. Had that visitor known in advance how to ride the metro or how to determine if a hotel is within the city of Paris, or various other little things tips and tricks, the visitor might have had a much better experience. This book is designed for those who want more than the “cookie-cutter” lists of attractions, hotels and restaurants found in most mainstream travel guide books to Paris, but don’t want to spend months searching through the internet trying to find the information needed. Filled with practical information, tips, tricks, ideas and recommendations from a traveler just like you, this book will give you all the details you need to have the best possible experience in Paris. Topics include:· Whether to choose a hotel room or an apartment, and how lodging is different in Paris How to get around Paris, including step by step instructions on navigating the Metro Understanding French culture and behavior Food and dining in France, answering questions such as “Should I tip?” and “What is the difference between a bistro and a brasserie?” Planning a customized itinerary based on your interests Shopping in Paris, with an emphasis on shopping streets and specialty stores And much more!
