Paris Charles de Gaulle

If you're looking for a long or short break to Paris, then book a cheap flight with easyJet. We can also help you find a hotel in Paris to make your trip complete. Paris is one of the world's most beautiful, fashionable and cultural capital cities. Walking through the heart of Paris you often feel like you've wandered onto an art film set; much of the city has been scrubbed clean in recent years and it's never looked more fabulous. Its inhabitants are the definition of style, its architecture includes some of the most spectacular buildings and monuments in Europe and the ambience is by turns exciting, alluring and effortlessly romantic.

Paris is quite distinctively divided into two parts by the Seine River, which meanders through the city, bisecting the centre. Thus everything in Paris is defined as Rive Droite (Right Bank) on the north side, or Rive Gauche (Left Bank) on the south side. Both sides compete with each other in great museums, churches, monuments, shops, hotels and restaurants, while in the middle of the river, atop the L'Île de la Cité, rises the towering bulk of Notre Dame cathedral, arbitrator between the two rivals.

This city is buzzing round the clock and whatever the time of year or day you'll never be short of things to do, whether you're on a long or short trip to Paris. The city's tourist hotspots are famous the world over, but in this vast metropolis there's a lot more to see than just these.

It's useful to know that central Paris is divided into 20 arrondissements or administrative quarters which spiral out from the centre. Most of the major tourist sites are in the lower number arrondissements, notably the first (1er) to the eighth (8e). Generally a place will state in which arrondissement you'll find it.

If you want to see quite a number of monuments and museums on a short trip, think about buying a one-day (EUR15), three-day (EUR30), or five-day (EUR45) Carte Musées et Monuments, a card which allows you free entry to some 70 sites, and allows you to skip queues. The card can be bought at the museums that subscribe to the scheme, in many Métro stations, RER stations, FNAC ticket counters, or at tourist offices.

If you need a little magic, you will find Disneyland Resort Paris just outside of the city. This consists of two parks, seven hotels, and a Disney Village. Several convenient transfer options are available from Paris Charles de Gaulle airport. The TGV takes you to ‘Marne-la-Vallée/Chessy-Parcs Disney’ in just 15 minutes. A regular shuttle bus with a 45 minute journey time takes you to the Disney hotels (except Disney’s Davy Crocket Ranch).
If you want to get to EuroDisney from the city of Paris, the RER express train takes you right to the gates of the park in approximately 35 minutes.
