Table of contents
To visit a city as big as Paris you will need at least 4 or 5 whole days to kick the city well and know its secrets. Also, it is convenient that you plan your visit well and make the necessary preparations before leaving. To maximize the time in Paris on many occasions it is advisable to sign up for a tour or a guided tour of the city. In this way, we can enter the museums without queuing, we avoid the loss of time that supposes not knowing the place and through the knowledge of a specialized Spanish speaking guide we will learn much more than if we made the visit for ourselves.
Paris to your Air Independently
A very practical way to make an independent visit to Paris without missing any detail is to get involved with the Paris Pass card. It is especially indicated for those all terrains that do not want to miss anything and want to visit at least 7 or 8 tourist attractions. If you are not going to move a lot or just plan to visit 3 or 4 sites, I would not advise you.
With it you can use all the public transport you want, enter more than 60 tourist attractions in Paris including the most outstanding as the Louvre Museum, the Musée d'Orsay, access to the highest of the Cathedral of Notre-Dame, the classic Stroll along the Seine or even free entry to more distant places like the Palace of Versailles.
In many of these sites you can skip the queue as soon as you arrive. Something that is worth its price in gold in the middle of summer when the others sweat the fat drop in front of the doors of the Louvre Museum. This card can be purchased for 2, 4 or 6 days and is activated when using it for the first time.
Guided Tour in the Louvre Museum
The first time I visited the Louvre I went unexpectedly and without planning. I had to wait a long time in the queue to buy the tickets and once inside I was not sure where to go and what areas of the museum were worth visiting.
For museums as gigantic as the Louvre, it is a good option to hire a guided tour in your own language. In this way we avoid queues and see the most important areas as well as some more exclusive rooms. And at all times accompanied by someone to whom we can ask about the topics that interest us most of the works on display.
Activities and Walks in Paris
One of the visits that can not be missed in Paris is the climb to the Eiffel Tower. You can avoid the queues to buy standard tickets. They usually go a little more expensive than the usual ticket but you make sure you can upload and you will not waste time.

Walking at night in Paris has its charm whether you are alone or accompanied. If you are a fan of Íker Jiménez and your promenade, you will add a guided tour with the mysteries and legends that cohabit with the buildings and streets around you, which will surely add to the charm of the walk.
Also on a romantic night in Paris you can not miss your boat trip on the Seine and dine under the beautiful lights that illuminate the city.

Excursion to the Palace of Versailles
Once in Paris you may not want to leave without knowing the most famous palace in the world with those extensive gardens that have appeared in so many period films. It is an activity that we can do perfectly for free but a clear example that sometimes it is advisable to hire a tour to avoid the losses involved in public transport, queues at the entrance, etc.
Also, there is the option of simply hiring transport and then go your way through the Palace with the audio guide in your ear, certainly cheaper. In the following link you can hire an excursion to the Palace of Versailles
Excursion to Disneyland from Paris
In order to please all the members of the family it might be convenient to add at least one day to enjoy the attractions of Disneyland Paris. In this way the little ones will enjoy their favorite companions.
Due to the distance, the usual thing is to sleep there at least one night but if you go in a hurry of time you can also do it on a marathon day from Paris (for you, for the little ones they sure have energy for that and much more). In that case, public transport will help you little and you will need to sign up for an organized excursion.
