Arrive in Paris around 8 PM? Perfect! That gives you enough time to settle in at your accommodation. Maybe grab a late-night dinner at a nearby café to taste some authentic French cuisine. Some places even stay open late and offer fabulous like crepes or a classic croque monsieur.

Day 2: Royal Adventures

Gorgeous, Royal suburb of Paris - Versailles.

À partir de Versailles at 9 AM? Great idea! Just make sure to keep it fun for the kids. After exploring the palace and gardens, grab a picnic lunch outside.

Trust me, running around in the gardens is fun for the kids! Afterward, a relaxing Seine River cruise will be a great wind-down, and dinner in Paris could include a visit to a family-friendly restaurant. You might want to try out nearby spots that offer classic Plats français but are also kid-approved!

Day 3: Iconic Paris

Experience the enchantment of spring in Paris.

You’ve got a packed morning with breakfast, and what’s better than enjoying pastries at a local bakery? Then it’s off to la tour Eiffel at 11 AM (super exciting!).

Since you’ll be with kids, consider pre-purchasing your tickets to skip the line. After all the Eiffel Tower excitement, you could explore Trocadéro Gardens — they’re perfect for photos and some playful energy release!

Disneyland! What’s not to love? This day can be packed with a ton of fun. Make sure to check the schedule for parades and shows.

And plan for some downtime there too: even magic can wear kids out! After all the Disney fun, head back to Lavelle Village Outlets for a bit of shopping. Few things feel better than an impromptu shopping spree after a day of excitement!

Day 5: Cultural Immersion

Notre Dame de Paris Cathedral, a historic Gothic structure, features intricate architecture and stunning stained glass windows.

Your visit to Le Louvre is set for 10 AM and is totally worth it! But remember, less is more. Instead of trying to see everything, pick a couple of masterpieces, and short tours can keep the kids engaged.

After lunch, stroll around notre Dame and head to Saint Chapelle — it’s less crowded and super stunning! Then take a casual walk through the Quartier latin. Suggest stopping for some gelato or a cute crêpe shop!

Day 6: Artistic Vibes

Montmartre is your destination! The streets are charming, and the Sacré-Cœur offers fantastic views of the city. Art is everywhere, and you might stumble upon local street artists showcasing their work, which can be a hit with the kids! Don’t forget to explore the tiny shops and cafes; a little shopping spree could ensue!

  • Since you’ll be savoring Parisian nights until 9 PM, starting your days a bit later could definitely work! Casual mornings with leisurely breakfasts can help everyone ease into the holiday spirit.
  • For museums like the Musée d'Orsay, perhaps consider visiting during the evenings when it’s less crowded.
  • Don’t forget to sprinkle in downtime; parks can be a perfect spot to recharge (check out the Jardin du Luxembourg!).

Overall, this is the beginning of what promises to be an amazing adventure for you and your family in Paris! Embrace the city, soak it all in, and most importantly, enjoy every moment together. Bon voyage!
