How many days should I spend in Paris for vacation in summer?

Question

I'm not really interested in museums or historical stuff unless its really really interesting

Answer 1

It depends on how much you would like to see..  I would say that anything less then a week wouldn't be worth the trip. I would say about 10 nights would be good... That would give you enought time to go to Nice and such if you would like to do that as well .

Answer 2

Big advantage,no "Parisiens" during summer vacation (July and August), but something very interesting to discover is "Paris plage" (beach among the Seine) and much more.

At least a week ! but please, do not follow the usual tourist guide and just take a map or GPS and discover this beautiful city by your own.

Last advice, do not forget like all big city, they are many pickpockets.

Answer 3

At least a week. I spent 10 days there several years ago and I feel like I didnt see all that I wanted.

Answer 4

As long as you can.

Seriously, Paris has such a rich variety of things to do and see it deserves a serious investment in time.

The Museums can absorb a vast amount of time and to even catch a surface glimpse of what is available will take 4 or 5 days.

Paris is also a city that invites you to relax and fall into its rhythms. That takes a bit of time but is well worth it.

The nightlife is excellent and with clubs that open late and don't close until sunrise you'll need a lot of time to recover every day.
