paris trip
Paris - definitely one of the most romantic city in the world. I went there last year to spend a family vacation with my kids. Oh dear it is a beautiful city. The river Seine is the spine of the city of Paris and provides a perfect sight to watch the city. A boat trip on river, this typically Parisian riverboat, presents you with a unique view of the city and you can even combine it with lunch or a “dinner cruise”. Of course no trip to Paris, is incomplete without a visit to the Eiffel Tower. The Louvre Museum is one of the best and obviously must watch in Paris. Champs Elysees & Arc de Triomphe - an absolute must-see sight on your Paris vacation. A stroll down this grand promenade and a visit to the top of the Arc makes an impact on you in a way few other places in the world can. Or else you can set back in one of the cafe beside the pavement and enjoy the environment. Asiarooms.com took care of my hotel reservation on line. I tried my luck and got a very good hotel. Of course there was a huge number of hotels to choose from, so I took help of the hotel reviews. Food was excellent altogether it was a great experience and I am looking forward to visit there again.

A boat trip on river, this I went there last month and it seemed to me hectic, noisy, overcrowded (also with turists) place. And very expensive. |

Coming from the San Francisco region, seems very reasonable. I thought it was quite expensive the first two times I went. The third time I went I went a little further afield and got away from the main tourist centres and found things much more reasonable. Restaurants of similar quality to the better places around here were cheaper than here. |

Restaurants of similar quality to the better places around here were cheaper than here. But I live in one of the more costly areas of the world. And we stayed near Rue Cler area, which may be more modest. Our friends lived in the area. But a lot of the idea of expensive relates to your home area. When I was eemployed as an Engineer in the Silicon Valley, and traveled on business, I saw pretty much the same costs, except for London. Way over priced. |

Like for like, I find Paris cheaper than London.
