Good to Know

k
Know

Book Everything in Advance (Especially With Kids)

Reserve Eiffel Tower tickets, a Louvre time slot, Seine cruise, and all Michelin or hotel restaurants well ahead; aim for skip-the-line or private options to avoid long waits and last-minute stress.

k
Know

Use Taxis or Private Cars, Not the Metro All Day

For a short, luxury-heavy family visit, rely on taxis or a private driver to move between the Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Seine, and Montmartre instead of wrestling with strollers, stairs, and transfers.

k
Know

Build in Micro-Breaks for Kids

Plan short pauses in the Tuileries Garden, on café terraces, or along the Seine for snacks and playtime instead of scheduling every minute with museums and monuments.
