In this article, we'll provide some tips on how to make the most of your honeymoon in Paris!

Enjoy a romantic walk

One of the best ways to experience Paris is by taking a leisurely stroll through one of its many parks or gardens. The Tuileries Garden, located near the Louvre Museum, is a great place to start. For something a little more off the beaten path, head to the Luxembourg Garden, which is popular with locals and features beautiful sculptures and fountains. If you're looking for breathtaking views of the city, make your way up to Sacré-Cœur Basilica or the Eiffel Tower.

Try one of the city's many restaurants

No trip to Paris would be complete without indulging in some of its renowned cuisines. There are endless restaurants to choose from, but if you're looking for something truly special, consider booking a table at L'Ambroisie. This Michelin-starred restaurant is known for its exquisite dishes and has been serving up mouth-watering meals since 1988.

Visit the Versailles Palace & Gardens

Just outside the city, you will fall in love with the Palace of Versailles and the Versailles Gardens.  The Palace is one of the largest in the world and was once the home of French Kings. Today, you can explore the lavish State Apartments, The Hall of Mirrors, and more. Afterwards, take a romantic stroll through the stunning Versailles Gardens and see the Grand Canal with your loved one.

Take a cruise down the Seine River for unforgettable views of the cityscape

Glide down the Seine River with your partner, admiring the glittering illuminations of Paris by night, and experience the city at its most magical. Look for well-known sights such as the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, Louvre Museum, La Conciergerie, and other landmarks on your way. Some cruises also include food and drink service so you can sip champagne while taking in the views with your loved one.

Explore the city's nightlife

Paris comes to life at night, with endless bars to choose from. If you're looking for a lively atmosphere, head to the Latin Quarter, where you'll find plenty of pubs and clubs playing everything from jazz to electronic music. For something more sophisticated, check out one of the many wine bars in the city – La Cave à Bulles is a popular choice among locals. Whatever your taste, Paris has something for every honeymooner who loves nightlife!

Explore some of Paris' famous museums, such as the Louvre and Musée d'Orsay

Visiting the Louvre is a must-do in Paris for honeymooners. The Louvre is one of the world's most renowned art museums, home to some of history's most famous paintings such as the Mona Lisa. If you're searching for something a little more unique, consider checking out the Musée d'Orsay instead. This museum specializes in 19th-century French art and is located in the former Belle Époque train station.

Sip champagne on top of Notre Dame Cathedral

Another must-see spot for honeymooners is the Notre Dame Cathedral. For a truly unforgettable experience, take the elevator to the top of the cathedral and enjoy panoramic views of Paris with a glass of champagne in hand. You'll be able to see some of the city's most famous landmarks from this vantage point, making it the perfect place to snap some photos with your new spouse!

Book a dinner reservation in the Eiffel Tower

It wouldn't be a honeymoon to Paris without seeing the Eiffel Tower. To add to the romance, reserve a table at the 58 Eiffel Restaurant for your honeymoon dinner and take in the magnificent view while you dine. After that, you'll be able to see the tower lit up at night with its sparkling lights. It's an excellent date night for newlyweds. Top hint: purchase a skip-the-line ticket so you can avoid queuing and spend more time soaking up the views.

Explore Montmartre, an authentic village in the heart of Paris

With its cobbled streets, stunning Basilica and many bistros, Montmartre is full of charm and a wonderful place to explore with your beau. Perched atop a hill in the 18th arrondissement, the area has retained its old village atmosphere that attracted painters such as Edouard Manet and Renée Vivien during the 19th and 20th centuries. Wander around and take in a unique atmosphere, then head to a local bar or café for a drink – Le Chat Noir is an atmospheric spot that's perfect for an after-dinner tipple.

Day trips from Paris

If you want to explore more of France during your honeymoon, consider taking a day trip out of Paris. There is plenty of charming villages and beautiful scenery nearby, so it's the perfect way to experience some of the country's picturesque charm. Some popular destinations include Giverny (home of Claude Monet's gardens) and Chartres Cathedral.

Visit France's champagne region

If you and your spouse love wine, consider taking a day trip to France's Champagne region. Located just an hour outside of Paris, this picturesque area is home to some of the world's best bubbly. You'll be able to tour vineyards, learn about the champagne-making process and of course, taste plenty of delicious samples.

Take a French cooking class

Not only is Paris a great destination for romance, but it's also the perfect place to learn about French cuisine. Why not take a cooking class together and learn how to make some of the country's most famous dishes? You'll get to spend time in the kitchen together, and afterwards, you'll be able to enjoy your culinary creations in the comfort of your own Paris honeymoon hotel room. Bon appétit!

Experience the Moulin Rouge

No trip to Paris would be complete without seeing a show at the world-famous Moulin Rouge. This iconic cabaret is known for its lavish productions, talented dancers and of course, the can-can. It's the perfect way to add some excitement to your honeymoon in Paris!
