Paris, the capital of France, is celebrated worldwide for its art, fashion, cuisine, and timeless romance.

When to go
Spring (April to June) and early autumn (September and October) bring mild weather and beautiful light, making them ideal times to explore. Summer is warm and crowded, and many locals leave town in August. Winter is cool and quieter, with a cozy charm and fewer tourists at major sights.
Getting there from Quebec City and Montreal
Paris is well served from Canada, occasionally nonstop from Montreal or Toronto but usually reached with one transatlantic connection depending on your departure city.

Good to know before you go
The currency is the euro, and cards are widely accepted, though a little cash is handy for small purchases. The Métro is efficient and by far the best way to cross the city quickly, with buses and the RER filling in the gaps and ride apps like Uber and Bolt handy at night, so there is no need for a car and parking is a headache anyway. A polite bonjour when entering shops goes a long way, and basic French is appreciated.
