Tickets and booking priorities

Book the Eiffel Tower, Louvre, Musée d'Orsay, Sainte-Chapelle and Paris Catacombs before popular dates. Advance booking is also sensible for the Arc de Triomphe terrace, Musée de l'Orangerie and Fondation Louis Vuitton.

Notre-Dame Cathedral reopened in December 2024 and cathedral entry is free. The Centre Pompidou's main building is closed for major renovation, with reopening planned for 2030, so treat its pin as a location reference rather than an open museum visit. The same applies to the Montparnasse Tower: its observatory closed on 31 March 2026 for a renovation expected to last several years. For a free high view instead, use the Galeries Lafayette rooftop or the steps of Sacré-Cœur.

Check official attraction websites before paying. This page does not treat third-party availability as official availability.

The attraction cards below show the booking priority next to every place, with a ticket link where booking matters.

3 easy Paris sightseeing routes

Walking distances and times below are map-based estimates for the outdoor walk only. Add the visit time shown on each card for any interior you enter — and pick one or two interiors per route, not all of them.

Classic centre

Louvre → Tuileries → Concorde → Champs-Élysées → Arc de Triomphe. About 4 km, roughly 50–60 minutes of walking. Choose the Louvre or the Orangerie as your one museum; the Arc de Triomphe terrace is optional. Use Metro Line 1 if you do not want to walk the complete axis.

Historic islands and Left Bank

Notre-Dame → Sainte-Chapelle → Conciergerie → Shakespeare and Company → Cluny → Panthéon → Luxembourg Garden. About 2.5 km, roughly 35–45 minutes of walking. Notre-Dame and Sainte-Chapelle are the priorities; treat the Conciergerie, Cluny and Panthéon interiors as optional, or the day becomes an exhausting run of queues.

Eiffel Tower and museums

Trocadéro → Eiffel Tower → Champ de Mars → Invalides → Musée Rodin. About 3 km, roughly 40–50 minutes of walking. Reserve tower entry first and plan around it; pick either Invalides or the Rodin Museum unless you have a full day.

How to use the Paris map

1. Zoom into one district rather than treating all 40 pins as one itinerary.
2. Choose one timed-entry anchor, then add nearby free places.
3. Use the Metro for long jumps between distant areas.
4. Check official websites before travel because closures and reservation systems change.
5. Choose the printable map for numbered district pages and an offline checklist.

FAQ

What are the main tourist areas of Paris?

The most useful sightseeing zones are the Louvre and central axis, the Île de la Cité and Latin Quarter, the Eiffel Tower and western monuments, the Marais, Montmartre, and the Grands Boulevards around Palais Garnier. Plan one or two zones per day to cut Metro time and backtracking.

Are Paris's main attractions within walking distance?

Many central clusters are walkable, but Paris is too large to cover entirely on foot. Use the Metro between distant zones such as the Eiffel Tower, Montmartre, Père Lachaise and the Latin Quarter. Walking along the Seine between the Louvre, Notre-Dame and the Latin Quarter is often the most enjoyable link.

Is Notre-Dame Cathedral open?

Yes. Notre-Dame Cathedral reopened in December 2024, and entry to the cathedral is free. Access to other parts of the monument, such as the towers, can have separate arrangements and tickets. Expect queues at busy times, and check the official website for current opening hours and any free reservation system.

Is Centre Pompidou open in 2026?

No. The Centre Pompidou's main building is closed for major renovation, with reopening planned for 2030. Its collections and programming continue through partner and temporary locations, so check the official website if modern art is a priority. You can still see the building's famous exterior from the surrounding square.

Which Paris attractions should I book ahead?

Prioritise advance booking for the Eiffel Tower, Louvre, Musée d'Orsay, Sainte-Chapelle and the Paris Catacombs, because popular dates and time slots can sell out. Book these first, then plan free sights like Notre-Dame, Montmartre and the Seine riverbanks around your timed entries to avoid long walks between them.

Is the interactive Paris map free?

Yes. The OpenStreetMap on this page is free to explore.
