SUGGESTED DURATION:7 Days
This trip was a personal trip that myself and two girlfriends of mine went on in March 2020. Literally just before the pandemic hit. I am super thankful we were still able to go on this trip.
This trip could be made in reverse and there are lots of options for different tours that can be booked.
We flew roundrip from Orlando to London. Day 6 for us we took the Eurostar back to London and added in a show. We saw Hamilton, which was absolutely AMAZING.

Travelling to Paris
This day is a little short since it does include travelling to Paris.
Travelled to Paris via Eurostar - 2 hours 30 mins time, direct
Louvre - this museum can take an entire day. This just depends on how much you'd like to see while inside.
Sweets on Rue du Bac
Pantheon
Notre Dam
HIGHLIGHTS:
Louvre
DAY5
Paris
Close Day
Eiffel Tower & Paris Catacombs
Sacré-Cœur - this is a cathedral that is an experience of it's own. There are lockets on the fences from lovers outfront. The inside is an actual marvel. If you are religious this is a must see.
Moulin Rouge
Paris Catacombs Special Access Tour – 2 hour - this is option but 5 stars, it was a very informative and amazing tour. Highly recommended.
Eiffel Tower – I would suggest going mid-afternoon. This will allow you to see the tower in the daylight, during dusk and then in the darkness with the lights on. Watching the sunset from the top of the Eiffel Tower is breath taking.

FINAL THOUGHTS
This trip was quick and squeezed in a lot of activities in a short amount of time. If you'd like to extend the trip or only do one city that will allow for far more relaxation and down time. I'd love to help you plan your dream trip.
