The trip takes 4.5 to 6 hours and you have multiple options per day. However, it is best practice to order your tickets ahead of time. Each passenger is allowed one piece of luggage to store under the bus, so skip this option if you have multiple luggage pieces. ### Antwerp to Paris by train All trains headed to Paris require a transfer in Brussels. The trip takes between 3 and 5 hours and tickets are anywhere from 40 to 130 EUR depending on when you book and your class of seats. It's a bit more hassle than the bus, but trains are generally more comfortable.

### Go to the top of the Eiffel Tower Easily the most recognizable symbol of Paris, the Eiffel Tower is the most visited paid attraction in Europe. If you aren’t afraid of heights and would like to see Paris from above, climb to the top! It has multiple viewing platforms and telescopes for an even more detailed view of Paris. For the shortest wait time, book your tickets in advance. ### Eat to your heart’s content French cuisine is among the most praised and decadent. Mealtime is a very important daily ritual in Paris, and it is not uncommon for retail stores and offices to shut down entirely for 1-2 hours for lunch. At restaurants, don’t try to make substitutions, as chefs are very passionate about how their dishes are prepared. Food service is also only at certain hours—no snacking between meals at French restaurants! For breakfast, you can’t go wrong with an espresso and croissant. For lunch, an escargots appetizer followed by Coq au Vin (chicken, wine, and mushroom stew) will hold you over until a dinner of Steak Frites and red wine. For dessert, try colorful macarons and souffles. ### Cruise the Seine River Fall in love with Paris from the water as you cruise by the Eiffel Tower, Louvre, and Notre Dame Cathedral. A sunset cruise will guarantee you a romantic atmosphere and amazing photos. Check online to see if there are special deals. ### See the greatest works of art at the Louvre The iconic glass pyramid can only mean one thing, the world’s finest collection of art! See masterpieces from across several centuries and empires. The Venus de Milo and Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa are just two of the famous artworks that grace the walls of the Louvre. Wander the many halls and find your new favorite piece of art. Definitely book your tickets ahead of time!

Paris is inland and does not have extremely hot summers or extremely cold winters, so while you should be prepared for the weather, you won’t find any season that is a no-go for Paris. Come in the summer for long, bright days and warm weather, or for a more intimate atmosphere, visit during the holiday season to see the city lit up for the holidays. That being said, in general, the best time to visit Paris is in the spring. The weather is pleasant, the flowers are in bloom, and there are fewer tourists so you can enjoy the attractions and renowned restaurants without the long lines.
