How to choose the perfect Paris Eurostar Break
Many people choose to have a short break in Paris, the romantic city of lights. The architecture, fine food and high quality wine all add to the fine reputation Paris has. Eurostar has become the carrier of choice for those wanting a quick get away from the UK as it offers a fast non stop service right into the heart of Paris from London.
To fully enjoy your break it is strongly suggested that you plan it in advance and sort out your itinerary. A good tour operator will be able to help you choose suitable venues and attractions and provide a hotel as a nearby base.
Most people head straight for the Eiffel tower, probably the most iconic and photographed landmarks in the world. By doing this they will miss much of what this magical city has to offer and you should really visit this towards the end of the day before it is lit up.

What is there to do in Paris
A look at the many and varied attractions, events and venues in Paris.
You really need a good few days to fully explore what Paris has to offer. The top attractions in Paris after the Eiffel tower and the Louvre, home to the Mona Lisa, the Sacre-Coeur, Arc de Triomphe and the Cathédrale Notre-Dame.
It is strongly recommended that you first of all research your trip carefully and plan an itinerary that takes in your interests. There are plenty of Museums, Galleries and other attractions along with just about every imaginable type of restuarant and bar.
At night the City really comes to life and there are plenty of clubs to choose from. The most popular clubs are the Andy Whaloo, Bateau Concorde Atlantic and the Baxo.
You will also discover a number of venues suitable for those wanting to keep fit and enjoy a more active Paris break. You can also rent bicycles and see more of the city without having to fight through the traffic by car. Cyclists are respected in France and motorists generally give them priority and a wide berth, after all the national sport is cycling after all.

Paris travel guide
How to get to paris and travel around Paris when you get there.
In Paris you will find plenty of Public transport with a network of rail, bus and the underground Metro to choose from. By doing some careful research you will quickly discover the discounted fares and saver ticket options and I would also recommend that you purchase a map of the public transport system as this saves a lot of confusion and time later on.
