Paris Honeymoon, France

Few cities can match the magical atmosphere of Paris: its ability to awe, charm and enchant lovers is endless.

For centuries, ‘The City of Light’ has claimed the hearts of lovers with its bountiful cosy, intimate and romantically renowned locations, which is probably why the city is so favoured by newlywed couples as the perfect honeymoon destination.

Things to do and see
Cuddle up over a glass of beaujolais in an aromatic bistro or enjoy a cafe au lait in a tiny street-side café on the left-bank. Stroll hand-in-hand along grand tree-lined avenues or on the cobblestone riverside quay beside the Seine.

Along the way, enjoy a passionate moment on the Pont Neuf, the oldest bridge in Paris, and admire the stunningly beautiful cathedral of Notre Dame.

Climb to the top of the Eiffel Tower to watch the sun set over the city, then head to a gourmet restaurant for a romantic candlelit dinner, then later swing with the beat in one of Paris’ famous jazz clubs (try Le Caveau de la Huchette).

Don’t forget to window shop along the ritzy Champs Elysees, view the classic masterpieces at the Louvre, cruise the Seine and spend a romantic evening people-watching and drinking French champagne in Montmartre’s Place du Terte.

Accommodation
Paris offers a range of accommodation to suit all budgets, but for that special romantic occasion (with a view of the Eiffel Tower from your bubble bath) try the luxurious Hotel de Crillon, an elegant 18th century palace situated on the world famous Place de la Concorde in the heart of the city. Alternatively, choose from a wide range of fabulous rental Paris apartments and spend the perfect honeymoon in the city with your partner.
