FREE THINGS TO DO IN PARIS

Paris is one of the cities that sits firmly at the top of many a bucket list.

Sights such as the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and the Sacre Couer made it famous, and the bohemian romanticism as told in the movies made it into an icon.

Visitors accept that visiting Paris is usually on the expensive side – but I’m here to show you that it doesn’t have to be!

CATHEDRAL DE NOTRE DAME

The main areas of the church are free to enter between 7.30am-7.30pm in winter, and 7am-9pm in summer, although there is a small fee if you would like to climb the belfry towers or enter the crypt.

TROCADÉRO SQUARE

Head to Trocadéro Square for one of the most photographed views of the Eiffel Tower.

02.

PARC DU CHAMP DE MAR

Head to the other side of the tower into the Parc du Champ de Mar. Providing a different angle, you’ll find scores of people lined up at ‘the perfect spot’ to capture the ultimate Eiffel Tower Selfie.

BASILICA DU SACRÉ-COEUR

Entry to the ground floor is free from 6am to 10pm every day, however a small fee will need to be paid if you want to climb the 300 steps to the top of the dome.

WATCH THE LIGHTS OF THE EIFFEL TOWER SPARKLE

One of the prettiest things – and one of my favorite free things to do in Paris – was watching the lights of the Eiffel Tower Sparkle. This is one thing that is totally free – and happens every night, on the hour, every hour.
