Paris, France is a large city with history, fashion, culture and plenty of sightseeing. It may difficult to decide even where to begin. Your Paris car rental will offer a great opportunity to see many sites on your time and schedule. The car rental will be a lot easier if you have a map and a plan for the places you want to visit.
If you have only a couple days to see the sites, here are a few key recommendations.
Notre Dame. This Roman Catholic cathedral is found in the center of town. You can sign up for a tour to climb the narrow flight of stairs to the top. Here you will have magnificent views of the city, including the Eiffel Tower. You will also be able to see the 13 ton bourdon bell, Emmanuel, which is one of five bells in Notre Dame, which mark the times of day or other occasions.
Eiffel Tower. When people think of Paris, the Eiffel Tower comes to mind. It can be seen in many paintings and photographs of Paris. It is the tallest structure in the city and is one of the most visited monuments in the world. It stands over 1,000 feet (324 meters) and is constructed of mostly iron with three levels for visitors. The tower offers night tours that allow you to see spectacular views of Paris.
The Louvre. At this large art museum located in the center of Paris on the Right Bank, several hours should be set aside to visit. It is probably most famous for the painting of the Mona Lisa, but there are tens of thousands of artwork pieces that make it even more worthy of a visit.
These sites are spread out throughout the city, so take your time, drive carefully and enjoy! Bon Voyage!
