London Paris Flying Visit.
My wife and I are planning a flying visit to London and Paris after an
extended holiday with friends in Ireland. We are planning to spend three nights in London then onto Paris via the chunnel. We have four nights in Paris before flying back to Heathrow for connecting flights back to Sydney. What are the "must see" things we need to include in our itinerary in the limited time available. My wife is 34 and I am 43 and are both fit and healthy. |

Just spend lots of time wandering around, with a zone 1-2 pass for each day. There are enough famous sites in London to keep you occupied for that short time. Same goes for Paris. In Paris, you might want to plan at least one full rest day, where you don't do anything too much, or even better, 2 half days. The Parisians respond better if you know a bit of French too. -- --- DFM - http://www.deepfriedmars.com --- -- |

Jetlag with hit you for the first day or 2 in London, so plan to take it easy. It's a draining city at the best of times. Yep, either raining or draining! Given the jetlag then that boat trip has to be a good idea or just walk along a bit of the Thames path. The Parisians respond better if you know a bit of French too. nice understatement :-) -- Mike Reid Drinking the Thames path "http://www.fellwalk.co.uk/thamespath.htm" |
