Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- TripPhotographer52Cincinnati, OH1,858 contributionsWe had been here before many years ago but did not spend much time here then. Many wonderful impressionist paintings by Monet, Manet, Renoir, Cezanne and van Gogh and many others. There is also great sculpture, including by Rodin. It is an old train station. We took our time to explore.Written 19 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- worleybird98Hudson, OH930 contributionsWe had arrived to Paris early in the morning, and had to drop our luggage at a Stasher location so we picked one next to these gardens. Once our luggage was dropped off, we got to go right into the gardens and it was such a nice visit. Everything is nice and open, lots of shade trees, and it was just a beautiful place to relax, grab a chair, and do some people watching. We loved the grand basin, we got to see one of the statues of liberty, and we got to use the public restrooms, (which are actually very nice). We finished our visit by stopping by the Medici fountain and then headed out of the gardens to continue our sightseeing for the day. It was a very relaxing stop and I'm so glad we didn't miss it!Written 11 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- KarinnaCraigBrisbane, Australia1,180 contributionsIncredible Basilica on top of the high point of Paris.
This would be my 5th Paris trip and 5th visit to Sacre-Coeur and I love it every time. I think I am enjoying it more and more as I get older and appreciate the history and architecture more now. Absolutely lovely to walk through and look out across Paris city. Stunning anytime of day.Written 17 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Overall, it is a tremendous experience, way above expectation.
1. We were actually 10 minutes late, but the staff was able to quick confirm our booking simply by asking my last name, and quickly guided us to the correct touring group. Friendly and efficiently.
2. The lady leading the tour is knowledgeable, passionate, humorous and friendly. I'm able to uncover lots of stories and facts related to Palais Garnier, which really enriches my trip here.
3. As a bonus, the 5pm tour time meant we practically had the Palais Garnier to ourselves! It was a wonderful way to avoid the usual crowds.Written 1 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Liber MarinBraga, Portugal7 contributionsMontmartre, in Paris, is a charming artistic district full of history. Strolling the streets, you will find charming cafes, quaint stores and incredible views of Paris from the Sacré-Cœur Basilica.

- TripPhotographer52Cincinnati, OH1,858 contributionsNotre Dame Cathedral was still closed for repairs from the fire when we were in Paris, so we wanted to go to St Chapelle, an old cathedral nearby, as we were told about the beautiful stain glass windows. We were told correctly, as the windows were beautiful. We walked over without an online reservation as it was a Tuesday and we did not think we needed one. We were wrong- big line, so we made online timed reservations to avoid waiting longer. Make timed online reservations ahead of time. There is a lower level and upper level so see it all. This cathedral was originally completed in 1248- amazing how it has lasted.Written 19 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mairwen1United Kingdom12,005 contributionsWe spent some time walking mourned the Marais, exploring this charming and historic area. The Marais covers the 3rd & 4th Arrondissements and is an easy place to walk around and discover narrow cobblestone streets with eclectic shops and boutiques, old aristocratic mansions, cafes and lovely architecture..
The highlights were the Place des Vosges, two free museums and the best ever croque monsieur at a little wine-bar.
We took the following route:
i) We started from Notre Dame and strolled along the Seine, past the Ile St Louis (the less famous of Paris’ two small islands).
ii) Along the way, we stopped to browse at the ‘bouquinistes’, the vintage book and poster sellers who unpack their stalls every day from the little green boxes that sit along the walls of the Seine River. Fortunately they were not moved on for the Olympics.
iii) From there, we made our way to the Place de la Bastille
iv) Next we walked to the Place des Vosges, often said to be the prettiest square in Paris.
v) Nearby is a hidden gem - the Victor Hugo Museum. Stepping into his house was like stepping into a time warp. The lavish 19th century furnishings, as well as ceramics, sculptures, manuscripts, photographs, letters, and paintings have been preserved as a small museum. Entry is free.
vi) We stopped for a light lunch and a glass of wine at Vins des Pyrenees where we sat outside the sun (this is where we discovered the croque monsieur)
vii) Our final stop was the Carnavalet, another free museum. It was excellent and we could have easily spent a couple of hours but we had limited time and in just one hour, we barely scratched the surface.Written 12 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mairwen1United Kingdom12,005 contributionsThe tree-lined and statue-studded Tuileries Garden is one of the best free things to do in Paris.
It’s the biggest and oldest garden-park in Paris, rivalled only by the Luxembourg Garden (my favourite is probably still the Luxembourg Garden - but it’s a close call).
For most tourists, the Tuileries is the easiest one to visit because it's located between the Louvre and Place de la Concorde.
There are water features, fountains, grand and small ponds, beautiful flower beds and classic statues.
Several large bronze beasts caught my eye. One showed a large, tiger attacking a rhino. Another showed a lion and lioness fighting a wild boar and another one had a tiger pinning down a crocodile. Brutal but dramatic. They were like David Attenborough videos captured in bronze.
If like us, you are on a tight time frame, you can simply walk straight down the main artery of the park but if you have more time, there are lots of side paths to wander down.
NOTE:
At the Louvre end, there is an additional sculpture garden with a large collection of works by Aristide Maillol. Its not officially a part of the Tuileries but its flows straight on from it and is also free.Written 12 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We enjoyed strolling through the streets past upmarket boutiques, smart bistros and beautiful architecture. This was the area where the Paris literary and artistic set used to hang out in cafes. In the early 20th century, it attracted writers, painters, sculptors, musicians. If you were in the right spot at the right time, you might have had Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Albert Camus or Pablo Picasso at the table next to you.
Although there are a handful of sights to see here (Delacroix Museum and the Church of Saint-Germain-des-Prés), we simply enjoyed it as a very pretty area through which to walk.Written 15 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Mairwen1United Kingdom12,005 contributionsIf like us, you enjoy walking and exploring on foot, then the Latin Quarter is a lively, vibrant area with a rich history and a lot to see.
We had already started our morning at the beautiful Luxembourg Garden (one of my favourite free things to do in Paris) and the Latin Quarter was an easy walk from here.
We walked the following route:
i) Our first stop was the Pantheon. The eastern section of the Garden (near the palace and Medici fountain) borders the Latin Quarter so if you leave via Rue de Médicis, it's only a short 10 minute walk to the Pantheon.
ii) From here, we headed down the Boulevard Saint Michel, one of the main arteries running through the heart of the Latin Quarter. The Boulevard has seen a lot of history. During WWII, resistance fighters set up barricades here. You can still see bullet holes in some walls. There are chilling stories of the German tanks rolling down the boulevard and, according to one story, the German army used French men and women as human shields, tying them onto the front of the tanks.
iii) As we reached the end of the boulevard, we came to the Saint Michel Fountain. This is one of the best known landmarks in the Latin Quarter and is located beside the Seine River, close to the Ile de Cite. The monumental, pink-marbled fountain and the square in front of it always seem to attract a crowd. The fountain features a triumphant Archangel Michael wielding a weirdly wavy sword above a fallen Satan. It’s a dramatic moment and the sword looks like it is about to fall upon Satan’s head at any time. There are fierce, winged, water-spouting dragons and the whole thing is framed by a large triumphal arch and pink marble columns.
iv) This brought our Latin Quarter walk to an end. We barely scratched the surface but we didn’t have a lot of time and had to make tough decisions about what to see and what to skip. With more time, we’d have strolled through some of the side streets and checked out some of the other sights such as the the Sorbonne and the Church of Saint-Séverin. I’d have liked to have seen the outdoor sculpture museum and the ‘Lady and the Unicorn’ tapestries at the Cluny museum.Written 15 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
