Go Shopping

Louvre and Tuileries District

This area is best for designer fashion. Think Versace, Hermes, and Yves St Laurent.  And if you’re in the market for top of the line cosmetics, this is your place.

Le Marais

Le Marais is so fun for shopping! Here you’ll find a great mix of eclectic and high-fashion, vintage and second-hand stores, handcrafted jewelry, antiques, and perfumeries.

Also, 1dayinparis.com has a Paris for Girls tour! A personal shopping guide will take you to the fashion districts to find all the best deals! A gourmet snack is included, and it ends with a perfume workshop.

Explore the Culture

Museums are another popular destination for those in this age range. Show them first hand what they’ve been learning about in school.

Le Louvre

The Louvre is the home of many famous art pieces that are sure to be familiar–the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, and the Winged Victory of Samothrace, to name a few. Buy your tickets online, they guarantee you’ll have entry within half an hour.
