Romantic escape to Paris – the best romantic walks
Paris is, for many around the world, the symbol of romance and refined love. Between Place de la Concorde and Arc de Triomphe, Champs-Elysées and rue de Rivoli, the city offers itself to the admiration of couples cozily nestled behind the wheel of a rental car. Here are the walks not to be missed when enjoying a romantic stay in Paris.
The Seine river cruise: a classic
What better setting for a romantic getaway than the Seine? Sailing along the water between the most prestigious monuments of Paris, under a multitude of ancient bridges, is undoubtedly a context conducive to lovers. Slowly cruising up the Seine on a bateau-mouche to discover the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, and Notre-Dame-de-Paris is certainly the gentlest way to explore the capital. The regular services of the bateaux-mouches allow hundreds of couples daily to experience the quintessence of Parisian romance.
Sacré-Cœur in Montmartre: the best view of Paris
You have to gain a little height to take this walk among the most romantic in Paris, but it is well worth the effort. In eternal Montmartre, a refuge for artists, cabarets, and a certain village-like atmosphere, couples find a perfect setting to celebrate their love. On foot or by funicular, it is easy to reach the top for a sweet romantic escape to the Sacré-Cœur Basilica, a monument worthy of a thousand and one nights.
Between green spaces and trendy cafes: the 6th arrondissement
A couple’s walk in the 6th arrondissement of Paris is a must: to stroll hand in hand through the Luxembourg Gardens or to remake the world in the famous cafes of Saint-Germain like Café de Flore or Les Deux Magots. You can then end this romantic escape on the Pont des Arts, a meeting place for lovers from all over the world, as the thousands of locks attached to the structure remind us, and add your own.
