Question
What to visit in Paris? Is it safe?
Answer
Some of you may want to combine a trip to Paris before or after our wedding weekend. Please feel free to do so! We would recommend this website for the latest happenings in the city of light: https://www.sortiraparis.com/en/ The must-dos include: - Eiffel Tower - Notre Dame Cathedral + L'Ile Saint-Louis - Louvre Museum - Champs-Elysées + Arc de Triomphe - Cruise on the Seine (e.g. by Bateaux Mouches) - Montmartre - Château de Versailles - Quartier Latin + Luxembourg Park - Moulin Rouge - Disneyland Paris! It's safe to walk around the city. We would just recommend you to keep your phone and valuables close to you all the time, especially inside the metro and RER. Pay attention to the red-light district at night, around Pigalle and Porte de la Chapelle for example!
Question
How to get around Paris?
Answer
From and to the Airport CDG: - If you're taking the RER train, you have to buy a special ticket "to Paris city" from the machine. - For taxis, go only to the Official Taxi Stands. Taxi fare from the airport is a FIXED rate at 55 euros (to "Rive Droite" / Right Bank / above the Seine) or 62 euros (to "Rive Gauche" / Left Bank / below the Seine). NO meter should be used. - For car-hailing apps, we use mostly Uber, Bolt and Freenow. Within Paris: - The easiest is to get a "Navigo Easy" card in most metro stations which allows top-ups (e.g. a "carnet" of 10 tickets at a lower unit price) whenever you want. This contactless card can be used in metro, RER and buses. - If you're staying for a week, consider the "Navigo Semaine" but be careful - this weekly pass starts always on a Monday and ends on a Sunday. - For car-hailing apps, we use mostly Uber, Bolt and Freenow.
