My 93 year old mum wants to see Paris again. She was there when she was in college. She wants to see the Orsay, Luxembourg, go out to Charte and a dinner cruise on the Seine. She is very active, tennis 3 times a week, plays bridge and volunteers every week and my husband and I can't keep up with her social life.
That being said, Paris is big and busy and she does get tired. I want to give her the best time possible, but am not sure which area to stay in. I was hoping to avoid the metro if possible and take the bus when I can. I was thinking the 1st but realize it can be very busy. I also thought of Ils Saint Louis, but that seemed like a long way from things she would like to see and do. I would rather have an apartment than a hotel. That way she can come back and rest as needed.
This trip is for her, so I want to make it the best ever. It will probably be her last trip to Europe. Any thoughts are welcome.
