Paris is a gorgeous city that you must see at least once in this life. Never miss the occasion in the idea that "it's too expensive for your pocket." If you know how to organize yourself, look for the cheapest flight ticket, the best accommodation, if you know where to eat, with which means of transport you can travel, you can save considerable money and at the same time, you will have an unforgettable vacation . Here are some helpful tips to keep in mind before going to the road.

  1. First of all, the period is important. He does not choose to travel to the peak of the season, when the plane ticket is expensive, and the accommodation. Spring and Autumn are the most appropriate moments.

  2. Airline ticket. Specialists say the best time to buy your ticket is 50-53 days before your departure. Mid-week days are cheaper than those in and around the weekend. It's also cheaper to take your night flight. Be flexible with your departure date and stay on airline websites! The best websites where you can search for airplane tickets are: paravion.ro, tripsta.ro, fly.ro, avion.ro, mobissimo.com, vola.ro, cheapflightsfinder.com, skyscanner.ro.

  3. Accommodation. Once you have bought your ticket, enter booking.com and book your accommodation. The hotels in the central area have high prices, a more acceptable alternative are the hotels in the area adjacent to the center. The conditions are not great in terms of space and facilities, most of them old buildings without recent renovations. The only condition that you need to consider is to be located near public transport.

  4. Local transport. In the city, avoid as much as possible taxis. Especially if you are a tourist and you do not know the city, you risk going for a long and expensive walk. On the other hand, surface transport is not the ten-point solution, because you often risk being stuck in traffic. But you have something to admire. Paris has an impressive architecture, a mix between traditional and modern, between grandios and small buildings, chic. If you have no time to lose in traffic, no money to taxi, the subway is your salvation. The network consists of 14 subway lines (plus two termed 3 bis and 7 bis) and 300 stations, and the operating schedule is from 5.00 in the morning to 1.00 at night. A ticket in the central area costs 1.8 euros / trip, reducing from 10 trips up. Another interesting transport option is bicycle rental, with very good accessibility in the central area.

  5. Excursions. You can also take a roundabout tour, the main companies being BIG BUS and L'OpenTour, which charges around € 32 for 24 hours, and provides you with the main attractions of Paris in about 5-6 hours.

  6. Food. It is good to know that Paris is an expensive city, a coffee and a sandwich start at 4 euros. Seek to buy from supermarkets. You can get some delicious chopsticks, cheeses, and smoked cheese, out of which some good-food sandwiches come out in the park. The restaurants begin to open late in the evenings, and the Parisians get dinner after 19.00-20.00. If you get there, try the specialties: snails in butter, tartar, duck, cheeses, macarons, but also the famous red wine.
    7.Visit to sightseeing. A "Museum Pass" costs 62 euros for 4 days and provides entry to more than 50 monuments and museums in Paris and the surrounding area.
