How to Spend 3 Days in Paris 

Paris in three days? It sounds short, but with the right plan, you can experience the best of the city! It doesn't matter if it’s your first trip or you’re back for another adventure, here’s a guide to make your 72 hours in Paris unforgettable.

Day 1: The Classics You Can’t Miss

Start your Paris journey with the landmarks everyone dreams about.

• Morning: Head straight to the Eiffel Tower. You don’t have to go all the way up! The best view is from Trocadéro, Arc de Triomphe, or Galeries Lafayette.

• Afternoon: Walk along the Seine to the Louvre Museum. Even if you don’t step inside, the glass pyramid is worth seeing.

• Evening: End your first day in Montmartre. Climb up to the Sacré-Cœur for one of the best sunsets in Paris and enjoy a glass of wine in Place du Tertre, surrounded by artists.

Day 2: Parisian Lifestyle

Now that you’ve checked off the icons, it’s time to live like a Parisian.

• Morning: Grab a croissant at a local bakery and stroll through le Marais - full of trendy shops, art galleries, and cool cafés.

• Afternoon: Visit Musée d’Orsay, home to the Impressionists, then cross the river to the Latin Quarter for bookshops like Shakespeare & Co.

• Evening: Enjoy a Seine river cruise at night - seeing the monuments illuminated is pure magic.

Day 3: A Mix of Culture and Modern Paris

Your last day is all about contrasts.

• Morning: Explore Île de la Cité and step inside Notre-Dame Cathedral (currently under restoration, but still beautiful from the outside).

• Afternoon: Head to Palais Royal and its striped columns, then walk through the luxury stores along Rue Saint-Honoré.

• Evening: End in the Champs-Élysées and the Arc de Triomphe - the perfect finale before saying au revoir to Paris.

Don’t Forget Your French Touch

Paris is about more than just sights - it’s about style and attitude. When you pack, think comfort meets chic. Neutral tones, simple outfits, and of course, a little humor. That’s where French Abroad Paris comes in:

• Our sweatshirt "OUI OUI" keeps you shaded while adding a wink to your look. it's cozy & perfect for those evening walks along the Seine and it’s already a global best-seller, adored by visitors from Paris to the world.

• If you want to remember your Parisian trip, the T-shit "Bonjour dream life" is a great souvenir because Paris is about blending in while standing out  and nothing says that better than bringing a piece of France with you.

Final Word

Three days in Paris may fly by, but if you balance the classics with the local lifestyle, you’ll leave with memories (and photos) to last a lifetime. And who knows? You might already be planning your next trip back before your plane even takes off...
