My time in Paris was way better than I expected! I LOVED the museums, which you can mostly visit for free under a certain age. Live music at midnight at the Eifel Tower was a truly unique experience. But watch out which parks you enter and trust your intuition. We got into a shooting at a park full of drug dealer (we had luck and could escape early enough)
Posted: January 18, 2025Hi! Paris has many activities to offer. It's a great place to travel as a student, bacause if you are under 26 and from EU you can visit many museums for free (also museum of Louvre and Versailles). I wouldn't say it was one of my favourite destinations to travel, but maybe it's just me, bacause I usually prefer nature. I really enjoyed art museums and just exploring different streets with different vibes. Food and accomondatioms are quite expensive. I would reccomend to go eating out of center, or just buying a baguette, cheese and wine and enjoy cheap but a nice french meal:)
Posted: January 15, 2025Paris was a very nice trip with my girlfriend. As a queer couple we were a bit worried at first but it was soo nice! Paris is a big city with many things to explore and see. Also I loved that you get free entrance at many places if you are under the age of 36 and an eu member.
Posted: December 30, 2024Paris was such a nice trip! I went there with my girlfriend and felt very safe. Aswell as a queer cupple I was a bit worried about being in Paris but the city is very big with lots of different people and very open to the queer community. We did a lot of things. The food was great. I liked the train system and overall feeling of the beautiful city. As well it’s really nice that you get free entrance at so many places if you are from the eu and under 36
Posted: December 28, 2024Beautiful experience, Paris was way safer than I expected , felt very comfortable and the atmosphere was very pleasant, we stayed for 3 days at the Hotel Gavarni, close the Eiffel Tower. Very beautiful interior design , beautiful aesthetic, clean and staff very respectful and welcoming. I loved Paris .
Posted: December 27, 2024Besides an incident that happened right when i was going to the airport after my trip, it was relatively safe. My budget was very little, but i managed to visit some places like museums and parks. I recommend Ha Noi 1988, the food is very good

Travelling solo in Paris was great. It is common for the locals to stay at cafe for themselves, and therefore I don’t stand out. I was invited by staff etc. I did not feel unsafe but I know Paris can be dangerous and I know of stories so I was careful anyways. In the metro one should always be away of pick pocketing
Posted: December 25, 2024Experienced: September, 2022It was an awesome trip, that i really enjoyed. I felt safe the whole time. We decided to always use the u-train, cause it was so much easier, than to travel with the bus. The food was great, the attractions were beautiful. We went during school holidays, so it was pretty crowded everywhere, but i assume this wouldn't be the case if you would be there out of the season.

Such a wonderful city with so many places to explore - especially enjoyed the galleries! When choosing an accommodation, be sure to check the local neighbourhood you are staying in. I stayed a bit further out near Stalingrad station and there were a lot of men hanging around on street corners at night.
Posted: November 28, 2024Experienced: August, 2023I traveled to Paris for the first time as a solo traveler, and I could not have been happier with my experience! The locals were friendly & helpful, the food was spectacular, and the history & art in the city is unlike anywhere else in the world. My experience was further improved by being fairly proficient in French. This was a great way to connect with locals, ask for help when needed, and overall feel more immersed in the culture. See the Eiffel Tower, go to the Louvre, and order yourself a Croissant or Pain Au Chocolat. And don't forget to take the metro to anywhere you want to go in Paris! It's super affordable and easy to navigate with Google Maps.

Paris is a safe place. Personally I feel safe in underground and walking alone in the street. However if you are in crowded areas especially touristic areas, you must be careful of pickpockets.
Posted: February 3, 2025Paris is mostly safe during the daytime but it depends of which area you’ll be in. But at night it’s jr safe at all there’re many weird people and I’ve been followed many times while walking back home.
