Hi,
Need some suggestion from fellow travelers on our Day 1 plan ( I like to plan in detail, but then be flexible depending on the situation on the ground)
We arrive in Paris on a Sunday ( 8:15 AM) and we leave for Nice on Wednesday, so our time is relatively limited.
Assume we reach our hotel by 11 AM - and our hotel is right by Tuileries Metro station ( Hotel Brighton) - I was wondering what's the best way to spend the rest of the day?
We have Eiffel tower tickets booked for Sunday 8pm - so we realistically have between 2 pm to 6 pm to 'do something'
I was thinking of 2 options:
1) Visit Orsay - its a 15 min walk from our hotel, and a 'must do'
2) Then walk along the Seine to the Eiffel tower area - visit Rue Cler neighborhood
3) Rest of the evening around the Eiffel tower area
Other option: would be to replace #1 above with Rick's Old City Walk and then take the metro to Eiffel tower area.
If this is too hectic, I am perfectly fine just doing Eiffel tower on Day 1.
TIA!!
