It is taking impressive self restraint to prevent this from becoming a personal tirade against the airline with stories of lost luggage, delayed flights, over booked seats and really, really bad food.
I am trying to be as objective as possible considering the experiences that are going to cost me…

France's train system is one of the best in Europe, with clean modern cars and frequent service. The standard trains are pretty fast, but there are also the high-speed TGV trains for longer distances. Beware that in some cities, there are train stations for standard trains, and DIFFERENT stations …

So if you've been to NYC or any other major metropolitan city with decent public transportation then Paris is no different. Except for one little thing. . .you can ride for free!!! The buddy system is highly utilized there. So if you're traveling with a friend who has a metro pass have them swipe fi…

I definetly recommend Let's Go Travel Guides. They are written by Harvard students who travel around and search for cool but cheap things to do. Everytime I stayed somewhere they recommended or ate somewhere they recommended, I was really satisfied and discovered a cool new place in t…

I love Paris. I really do. Even after being pickpocketed. It happened in the hustle and bustle of the St Michel station and my bank gave me hassles for months about reimbursement on my debit card because, in their opinion, I was grossly negligent for failing to exercise due care over the card. And t…

If you plan on being on Paris in July, shoot for July 13th and 14th. We were here at this time in 2007 and had so much fun. The party starts on the night of the 13th, Bastille Eve. We made a mistake and went to the Bastille around midnight, but the main festivities there were just ending. But there …

I have just checked for you:
to arrive in Paris, in the morning (9AM), you need to take a train in Rome at 18:40 the night before (from "ROMA TERMINI SP S I P").
So depending on the Brindisi -> Rome train, I think that can be done... ;-)

When traveling through Western Europe, the train is the absolute hands down best way to get around. Be sure to get a Eurail pass for your travels, as you will save TONS of money this way. Plus, it's a great way to get out and enjoy the country. It's one thing to be in these awesome cities, but th…

Even if you're not an art buff the Louvre is worth doing. Give it half a day and just do the first floor with the Italian and French masters. The massive Delacroix's and the Mona Lisa are worth the cost of admission alone.
If you're looking for good, cheap food head to the latin quarter near Notr…

•Get a Metro Pass for your stay. Paris has a great Metro system and you’ll probably use it a lot. Make sure to include Zone 4 and 5 if you want to go to Versailles. We bought a week long pass for 33 euro each. The week passes only run from Mon. – Sun so keep that in mind when you purchase.

Paris, c'est tres interesant! We loved Paris! We found the people to be very helpful and friendly. It's all about attitude-if they sense an open and honest person, they will go the extra mile to assist you. Yes, there were a few rude people, but you come across them in any city in the world! The you…

i found paris rather expensive, despite coming from london! sit-down 3 course meals can be very poor quality if going for standard menu of the day, though those are the cheaper options. i ended up prefering buying bread and salads and having a picnic.
the museums are great though, but beware of t…
