Review of Paris
Paris
Take flights to Paris for Seine sightseeing, trendsetting boutiques and intimate bistro dining.
Things to do
Arriving on flights to Paris, visitors can board a bateau-mouche at Port de Suffren at twilight to see the city's iconic landmarks twinkle. The glass-covered boats cruise gently past the lattice-work Eiffel Tower, the illuminated Louvre and the flying buttresses of gothic Notre-Dame Cathedral.
Shopping
Style-conscious Parisians pick up the latest prêt-à-porter on rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, a catwalk to French boutiques like Chanel, Hermès and concept store Colette. Join well-dressed ladies for tea and delicate pastries at Dalloyau. .
Restaurants
Wander the Marais' winding, lantern-lit streets, where Art Deco bistros and Michelin-starred restaurants compete with buzzy falafel joints and creperies. For classic French dining on Paris city breaks, sit under Place des Vosges' arcades to feast on garlicky escargots and steak-frites.
Nightlife
The bohemian spirit lives on around rue de Oberkampf, packed with shabby-chic cafes, bluesy jazz bars and late-night bistros. Exuding belle époque grandeur, Café Charbon is a relaxed spot to sip wine as DJs spin the latest tunes after your flight to Paris.
When to go
KLM has frequent flights to Paris. Time your Paris holiday to catch Parisians sunbathing on the Seine's beach in summer, or skating in front of the Eiffel Tower in winter.

Will you marry me?28 Feb 12
The goal of my visit to the city of love was to get a 'YES' on the question 'Will you marry me?'. I got it! Was it because of the beautiful Sacre coeur and the famous balcony where this moment took place? Was it because of the walk we made between little squares, Tour de Eiffel, ice-rink, and romantic old buildings? Probably yes. I really love Paris!Snipes - Netherlands
