Can you recommend places in Paris where it is safe for a solo female traveler? I heard there was an Australian tourist who was gang raped by 5 men in Paris. I’ll be going to Paris in late Sept? Thank u!
My wife and I went to Paris in December 2022 through January 2023. I watched your videos prior an took your information to heart. Instead of the tourist traps we found local bakeries for breakfast (amazing and cheaper than going to a chain or trap area). We also AirBNB and stayed near the metro. The Metro was SAFE and CHEAP! Do your homework before you go and follow their advice to your liking and you will have a blast! LOVE YOU TWO!
Dear Les Frenchies, my husband and I really appreciate your videos which are informative and entertaining at the same time. Sadly, out tourism to France is at an end, but through your videos we can revisit fond memories and the wonderful people we met. Thank you.
My daughter and I were there two weeks ago. To be honest i was full of anxiety because I prepared myself since watching these videos. We didn’t experience anything bad. In fact, we were treated so well. We are familiar on these things because we live in a big city in California. We took the metro, sat at cafes and enjoyed great food. And we walked a lot. We stayed around the Latin quarters area where it was close to the tube. We loved it. I was so pleasantly surprised because all you hear about Paris is don’t wear this or try to at least speak French or don’t look like a tourist. These were a given but because I look foreign (I am Filipino), I was welcomed so nicely. The security guard at the Dior Store was so friendly. He worked with Filipinos. Even the metro workers. An older gentleman saw me and my daughter waiting for the bus unknowingly it was moved due to the Olympics traffic. He told us where to walk to where it stops. So all I could say is Paris we will be back.
@@LesFrenchiesTravel.why all your videos with drama???? We came back to NY 2 weeks ago. I feel very comfortable and safe. G7 taxi is a scam!!! Please everyone Read their reviews!!!!! Don't trust them. Use Uber!!!!! We didn't have any problems .If someone wants to save money STAY home. I understand it is a family business,but don't scare tourist.
I completely agree with skipping the hotel breakfast and going to the boulangerie ! Last time I was there I went to the bakery around the corner from the hotel and as soon as I walk in a lady comes out with a fresh batch of croissants. You can't beat a warm croissant out of the oven😂
Great tips! Have lived in Paris 7 years and going back. And u nailed it. Do not forget to get public transport weekcards. And museums have a free day every month.
What I want to say is that I spent less than $ 100 from the fake LV I bought from a aunt *condup* . The quality is very good. I spent four years on the plane, the bus, and anywhere. As a rag. I specially smelled the bag and compared the stitching color. This is the most authentic I have ever seen. To this day, this bag is still very strong. Although it has been abused, the material is still great.
Another winner! The comments about the taxis and how they charge, the phone app, the way to avoid exchange rates and the insight about when prices are high were so helpful. From watching your videos - I’d been clued in about the other matters - but always a good reminder. Each week you present something so important and helpful for us to know. Thank you for putting so much thought and effort into making videos that I find extremely valuable. Each time my husband and I return to Paris - we employ more of your suggestions and insights. Love you guys!
When i asked literally for 'water from the faucet' in french and the kind server said, 'you want to say carafe d'eau' back to me in french. Best lesson learned on ordering tap water!
I agree on don’t overbook tours! I learned that hard way, booked 2 long walking tours in one day and sure was worn out at end of that day. But, I did do 2 that were ok in one day…one was food tour, so got sit at most stop as sampled foods - that left me ok to do another walking one of coveted passages. And I’ve learned better for me to take metro or bus to start of tour instead of walking just because I think it’s not bad walk just because it’s a mile
This is very good information. I've found that in any European country, don't be shy about asking a manager about tipping. The last time I was in Dublin, I went to a hair salon on trendy Grafton Street for a splurge on a cut. When I went to reception to pay for my 65€ haircut and asked about an appropriate tip, I was told that hairdressers in Ireland were better compensated than those in the US. She said 2€ would be very generous. Always ask a manager or host. They appreciate it.
Bravo pour vos vidéos, dynamisme, qualité d'image, arrières plans, excellents conseilles, le tout sans "blablas" inutiles. De nouveau bravo, Bonne continuation .
MY brother, who lived in Paris, always recommends finding a cafe or boulangerie or a cafe and have a coffe or choclat and a pastry and make that your morning home base for your stay. I have done this: works great!
Also great to see the locals go about their day. People coming in for a quick break before work, the postal worker, the woman with a pram leaving it almost unattended because there are always regulars to mind the child, seeing the staff come in with a large bag of hot croissants from the local bakery. Of course hotel breakfasts can be great but usually are just not worth it. 8:19 8:19 8:19 8:19
On this trip, I got seated with an American family who NEVER used the Metro during their trip! They were just too afraid to use the Metro, not because of safety concerns, but because they thought that they would be confused and get lost. I really would recommend to use the Metro because it is so convenient, really easy to figure out and much cheaper than using ride shares.
We avoid subways too. We are there to see the city, and you can't below ground. I'm not saying it's not easy, cost effective, and a great fit for a lot of people. It's just not how we travel.
We didn't use public transportation either. I didn't want to be pickpocket, but my knees were hurting bad. We used Uber & Bolt. When I got back & went to the doctor, I was told I needed a new left knee as it was bone on bone & my right knee is at a stage 3 OA. I had no other pain prior.
Just came back from Paris a week before the Olympic starts. We did not waste money on any of these because we watched all your videos. Thank you Colleen and Antoine! You guys are amazing!
We have been to France many times. The attractions are, the food, the architecture, the History, the people, the public transport, the geography, the culture, the close proximity of cities and villages, the diversity of all things French. When we are not there we are wanting to be there. Your presentations are wonderful and act as a remedy . We watch the regularly, thank you.
I am so looking forward to visiting Paris & Normandy this October & your videos have been perfect study guides! Your advice about tipping & formule dejeneur are particularly helpful this week. And I’ll be breaking in another pair of walking shoes BEFORE we leave! Merci Colleen et Antoine!
Merci, merci, merci beaucoup! I've been watching your videos for quite some time now--some several times--as I hope to return to Paris for the first time since my student days in 1977--I know, I know, I'm old! LOL. I'm planning a 2025 trip. I look forward to once again seeing the Cathedral de Notre Dame in its new splendor. Your work, warmth, enthusiasm, and knowledge are invigorating and helpful. Merci, merci, merci beaucoup!
Great video (again)! My daughter and I will be there in September and I have starred (in Google Maps) most of the restaurants from your guide in the areas where we will be. Thanks for educating me about so many important things about Paris!
Thank you both for all the informative videos. I just got back from Paris yesterday. Your videos help be navigate so many things. Especially the Metro and taxi aspect. We arrived on Thursday morning a day before the opening ceremonies. I booked on a whim, unaware of the events taking place until after. We had an amazing time armed with the information we got watching you. Merci Beaucoup!!!!
I am looking to take my two teenage children (17 & 15) plus my 11 month old, I’m a single parent so I’m a bit nervous doing it on my own, my daughter missed out on her year 6 leavers school trip to Paris because of covid and my son Oliver passed away 2/10/20 from cancer, he would of had his year 6 trip June of last year so going to Paris has a lot of meaning to us as a family. Your video is such great help 😊
We have been to the second restaurant shown in the video “near the eiffel tower”. Paid a lot for simple food you can easily make better yourself at home! You are so right about it!
@@LesFrenchiesTravel IMHO, the problem would not be that it's expensive - after all, you're paying for that prime location. My problem would be if it's also BAD. Just OK food and service, but with a killer view, is still pretty worth it for me. Google maps ratings helps me avoid the truly bad ones.
I totally agree with your highlighted points. They really make sense when you visit for the first time. Unfortunately, I'm seeing this video after my visit to Paris, but I was lucky to bypass these issues and use only public transport everywhere.
I've had 5 trips to Paris & France, so far, some good tips for folks. The Airalo eSim is a great one , my kids in University also travel internationally & also use it, cheap , easy and top it up in seconds. Bonjour d'Australie
I was in Paris, Tennessee, last week. They have an Effil Tower replica there. Cost much less to book a motel room with a view of it and no annoying tourists either.
Thanks for encouraging bikes and public transit over cars ! Paris is just so much better in terms of metros and bicycle lanes than individual polluting cars.
as a Frenchman I always advise foreigners to find out about the restaurants where they hope to go...Paris is a very touristy city and there are always people who prefer money to the pleasure of offering a good meal and a good service, especially in recent decades when many foreigners have come to take advantage of the windfall and open poor quality restaurants to make easy money. So don't hesitate to choose your restaurants carefully, the best are often in less busy areas. Don't hesitate to crucify on social networks or on reference sites the restaurants which seem to you to be of poor quality, this is how we maintain good gastronomy and good service.
I think Imitation is a good way to try new things. I also have a Kelly -style mini bag, the price is only a small part of it. Personally, I would hesitate to buy imitations of small companies, but for big brands, *condup* I don't mind, as long as they do not directly copy the brand/logo.
I'm going to Paris in August 18 by myself. You are the only one I trust and I will go through as many of your videos as possible before I go. I'm so nervious
Thank you so much for your video! OMG I buy and drink so much water, that is amazing, I would save so much time and $ just in getting free water in France! I love France💖
thank you for the many tips! we try to choose an airbnb or hotel as close to a metro as possible. we also appreciate the set lunch tip as well as the tipping itself. now for us to try to say "carafe d'eau" and "formule dejeuner" properly!
This is by far the most thorough and helpful tips I’ve come across. I will be saving this segment on our next trip to Paris. Now I know how to save for lunch and water!
After watching one of your previous posts about pickpockets, especially on public transportation, we took taxis to/from the airport and Ubers everywhere else, of distance. The plus about Ubers is you know upfront the charge, unlike taxi who can easily scam tourists. We had a marvelous time!! Paris is marvelous!!
Just came back from euro trip(netherlands, belgium, france and Spain) and I used maya esim for 16$ for 10 gigs of data for 30 days and it worked perfectly fine at all of these places.
Highly Appreciated for your wonderful concerned for us as a new Tourist. Next time when I visit Paris I will be more wise and economize. I was in Paris in 2013 Thanks for your valuable advice. Mr Bub Martin War Shillong Meghalaya India
Thank you for the video! It was most helpful! Do you know how much the flat rate from Paris city centre (near La Défense Arena) to the Paris Beauvais Airport is? I’m going to Paris next month and I need to know whether this is an option on a Monday morning (around 5am) when I leave. To me, it seems like the quickest option, but it might be expensive which is why I’m asking. ❤ If I have any questions, do you have an e-mail I can use to ask you guys?
I only go to Paris and to France for mainly educational purposes and also leisure. I’m a college student studying French. Paris can be good if you a lot of studying about it and know the city well at least. also there are cities like nice and antibes on the French coast where I went to summer school when I was 16. I’d say it’s very unforgettable and beautiful
Great tips. I prefer a healthier breakfast, than starting my day with pastry. I skip the processed meat, go for the boiled egg, fruit and yogurt. I can always pick up a pastry later in the day, after I got all my steps in ;)
Thank you. I'm planning a trip for the fall and couldn't figure out why my favorite hotel is fully booked. After watching this I checked, and sure enough, it's fashion week. I think I'll be adjusting the timing of my trip.
Could you maybe do a video (if you haven’t already) of words and phrases we should know when we travel to France? My mom and I plan on going next year and we want to know at least the basics so we seem respectful!
Re: banking. 1. Look for French banks that partner with your bank for reduced or no fee ATM withdrawals. 2. Just make sure you know which credit card charges no additional fees. 3. When using a credit card, always ask to pay in the local currency. If you pay your bill in US dollars, you're exposed to additional fees and unfavorable exchange rates.
The les champs mars restaurant caught us 7 years ago. Four people, light lunch was over 140 euro including a couple of alcoholic drinks. Never been stung since.
Another great video - thanks. A great idea for another video could be accommodation ideas for families (2 adults and 2 teenagers ) - apartments or apart hotels seems like a great idea but difficult to find good you tube videos . Thanks Mark

I hope you were getting more than just a hair cut, otherwise you were ripped off. I’d expect a hair dye to come with that price as well as a cut.
Quite a few “My Life in Paris” channels these days. And that’s a good thing. Nice to see the diverse perspectives of Paris out there.

All the time available (Paris isn't very cold in winter at least not enouth to freeze the water).

I’ve heard there is a Paris in Texas as well…
There is a Paris,, Ontario, Canada too. Pretty town on a river.
Incredibly helpful and useful as always, I need to plan another trip just to put some of these into practice, hehe

Very good info!!! Loved the idea of staying in a neighborhood. You guys are the best.
I only go to Paris and to France for mainly educational purposes and also leisure. I’m a college student studying French. Paris can be good if you a lot of studying about it and know the city well at least. also there are cities like nice and antibes on the French coast where I went to summer school when I was 16. I’d say it’s very unforgettable and beautiful
Really nice video. Great info. Not sure if I want to visit Paris now lol. I really enjoy your video's. Thanks and take care.
This is an excellent video with superb advice. Well done!
Great tips. I prefer a healthier breakfast, than starting my day with pastry. I skip the processed meat, go for the boiled egg, fruit and yogurt. I can always pick up a pastry later in the day, after I got all my steps in ;)
Thank you. I'm planning a trip for the fall and couldn't figure out why my favorite hotel is fully booked. After watching this I checked, and sure enough, it's fashion week. I think I'll be adjusting the timing of my trip.
Could you maybe do a video (if you haven’t already) of words and phrases we should know when we travel to France? My mom and I plan on going next year and we want to know at least the basics so we seem respectful!

Re: banking. 1. Look for French banks that partner with your bank for reduced or no fee ATM withdrawals. 2. Just make sure you know which credit card charges no additional fees. 3. When using a credit card, always ask to pay in the local currency. If you pay your bill in US dollars, you're exposed to additional fees and unfavorable exchange rates.
The les champs mars restaurant caught us 7 years ago. Four people, light lunch was over 140 euro including a couple of alcoholic drinks. Never been stung since.
People who stop for just a coffee and pay with credit card get surprised with the fine print saying that the minimum credit card charge is 50€
Excellent ! C'est même valable pour les Français qui viennent visiter Paris.
Another great video - thanks. A great idea for another video could be accommodation ideas for families (2 adults and 2 teenagers ) - apartments or apart hotels seems like a great idea but difficult to find good you tube videos . Thanks Mark
Thanx Forthese a wise❤❤❤❤
