Curator’s statement
Audrey Hepburn said it best, "Paris is always a good idea." Rich in fashion, art, history and culture, Paris has something for everyone. The 20 arrondissements of Paris offer visitors countless opportunities to feed their soul in the city of love.

Things to do in Paris
Palais Garnier
Although known for its beautiful operas and ballets, you don't need to be a theater aficionado to visit! Simply touring the opera house is an experience in itself. Depending on how much time you'd like to dedicate to the experience, you can easily complete it within 1 hour.
Tuileries Garden
The Tuileries Garden is the oldest and largest garden in Paris! Adults can relax in the various chairs surrounding the fountain, while children can guide small sailboats in the beautiful fountain. The grounds are simply stunning and a wonderful place to spend a relaxing afternoon.
Vintage Car Tour
What better way to see the historical monuments than in a vintage Parisian car?! You can hire a guide who speaks either English or French and they will drive you throughout the city where you can easily view, or stop by if there is time, all of the sites that make Paris a breathtaking city.
The Seine River
The Seine River offers various cruises throughout the day, but a can't miss is a champagne tasting. A sommelier onboard will educate you on French champagne as you cruise down the Seine River past the twinkling Eiffel Tower. A can't miss!

Can't Miss Restaurants/Bars
Perruche Paris
Perched on the top floor of the Printemps Haussmann, this restaurant features stunning views of the city with the Eiffel Tower in the background.
Le Procope
This is the oldest cafe in Paris, dating back 330 years, and is a wonderful restaurant for dinner. You can even find Napoleon Bonaparte's hat, which he was made to leave as security!
Restaurant Coco
Situated inside the Opéra Garnier, the vibe is unlike anything, drinks are wonderful and the food is top notch!
The Hemingway Bar
An absolute can't miss, this famous bar is located inside the famous Ritz Paris. Due to its small size, there is often a line outside, so be prepared to wait. It is beyond well worth it, though.
LouLou Paris
If you're looking for a chic and elegant night out, this is your spot. The food is out of this world, the staff is incredible and if you're lucky, you can catch a glimpse of the Eiffel Tower through its various windows.
