And yes.. there are pickpocketers all over Paris, especially in areas where tourists lose their situational awareness. So bring your brain. That being said, my husband greatly appreciated the thorough security pat down which gave him the FULL experience.. 5/5 would recommend. The food is shockingly great. The sounds of champagne bottle popping everywhere really adds to the ambiance. The place was completely packed to see a tried and true review complete with feathers, sparkles and full body makeup. Wouldn't say it's entirely family friendly... but it has a children's menu and my 9 year old son said the dancing was amazing. Put this on your must do list.

The major thing we wanted to do in Paris was visit the catacombs, an underground ossuary containing…read morethe bones of more than six million people. The catacombs are part of Paris' abandoned mine and quarry network, and bones were moved to the catacombs because the cemeteries were running out of space. The first bones were transferred from the Cimetière des Saints-Innocents after the cemetery was closed in 1780 due to overuse. The catacombs are an extremely popular attraction, and purchasing tickets in advance is highly recommended as a limited number of people are admitted each hour, and with good reason -- the experience would be extremely unpleasant if overly crowded. However, you can only purchase tickets one week in advance, and the catacombs are not open on Mondays. The two full days we were in Paris were Sunday and Monday, so I had to ensure that we were able to get tickets for Sunday April 7. Fortunately I was successful! Tickets were €29 each, although per the website, they are now €31. Unfortunately, the catacombs are not accessible for people in wheelchairs or who have mobility issues -- the 1.5km long route has 243 stairs -- 131 to descend and 112 to ascend. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and if you want to see bones and skulls (no full skeletons, though), the Paris catacombs won't disappoint!

The Pantheon is a marvelous neoclassical structure that was originally planned to be a church,…read morehowever the circumstances of history changed its course, and instead pays homage to the heroes of France and those who helped shaped its culture and history in the world. We visited on a rainy day in Feb 2026 and there was quite a line. We waited about 30 mins and paid 13 euros each, plus an extra 4 euros for an audio guide. I would recommend purchasing tickets ahead and the extra 4 euros for the audio guide is well worth it. Give yourself at least 1 hour, but you could be in here all day. The crypt houses many including philosophers and authors: Voltaire,Rousseau Victor Hugo and Alexandre Dumas, as well as scientists like Marie Curie, and activists. Right next door is a beautiful church Eglise St Etienne du Mont which should not be missed!

This was so much fun and so interesting!! While we spent 4 hours waiting in line to visit the…read moreCatacombs, we occupied our time by searching for something different, or perhaps a little odd to do while in Paris. And we found this place! Definitely a little odd, but a whole lot of interesting! It was about a 40 minute metro ride to the outside of Paris and then a short walk to the museum. It was a little freaky to say the least and we may have even though to ourselves 'today is the day we die....or become vampires.' The front of the house is overgrown and in disrepair, which only adds to the experience! You then have to walk around to the back alley to enter through a red door into the back yard and the building where the museum is located. We knocked and stood there for 15 minutes waiting for someone to let us in. Just as we were about to give up and leave, a man dressed in black came through the door and escorted us in. Anyway, we survived I think. And we really enjoyed our several hours of discussing vampires with our host. If you are looking for something different to do. If you like vampires. If you want an adventure then do this! Just make sure you call in advance, as the museum entry is by private reservation only.

But wait! Up some windy stairs is a sunlit room with about the same amount of art.

The museum is in the garment district, and the art may inspire you to pick up some fabric to make a collage.

We popped in for the Jeunet/Caro exhibit, because when in Paris, you Amélie. The design of the exhibit space is in a wagon wheel, with fixtures from the duos filmography segmented by "pie piece."
