I'm not a hop on hop off fan, but the Batobus is a hop on hop off boat! You can get your day passes at Notre-Dame.

Walk down the Champs-Elysee towards the FDR train station so you can head to Montmartre next! Take the train towards La Maison Rose so you can avoid a lot of major hills. If you want to eat here, def make a reservation.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Jen Sierra

Hi guys! Happy to see you here :) I'm a NYC-based travel creator who grew up in Atlanta, GA and previously studied/worked in London, but I have been traveling since I was just 6 months old! My family truly created my love for travel as I am half Indonesian visiting my family, my dad has a PHD in German and visits every few years, etc. I am trusted by travelers on social media to create the ultimate guides/itineraries and find "money-worthy" spots to share; NYC and Paris are my most popular locations! I wouldn't call myself a luxury traveler, but I'm not a budget traveler either, somewhere in between that gets the most bang for your buck. I love a balance between adventure and slow travel because working a 9-5 has taught me the importance of balance! It has also taught me how to maximize my time to be able to travel frequently (my friends don't understand how I do it haha)
