Overview

It’s impossible not to fall in love with Paris, and it’s particularly adorable in spring and summer.

It’s a city that spoils you for choice with its incredible atmosphere, sights to see and things to do. You can take in breathtaking, blooming gardens, sit outside an idyllic café in the sunshine, or even catch the big names play in the French Open.

If music is your thing, the Paris Jazz Festival will hit the right note in summertime, with a diverse range of soulful acts travelling from all over the world to treat your ears in the beautiful Parc Floral de Paris.

Have a fun-filled family day out at Disneyland, or stroll the grand boulevards to the even grander projects of Francois Mitterand’s presidency – the Arch at la Defense, the Pyramid outside the Louvre, and the underrated Musee du Monde Arabe, with its constantly-changing wall of exquisite metal irises.

The people are stylish and flirtatious, the architecture’s seductive, and the restaurants have set a world-standard for the way food should be done. Paris has it all, so tuck a map in your pocket, don some stylish attire and fall head over heels.
