We are searching for day tours more for the English/Australian troops history at Normandy. Most of the day trips seem to be to the American memorials - no offence to Americans - but living in Australia and of English heritage we are looking to explore that side. Any suggestions?

I broke pick pocket ankle with kick.

we were in Paris last week and arrived at the train station, went to the official taxi line and still got out of two different taxis who claimed cash only and they would take us to an ATM. we took our bags out and left. In the end we did catch the metro which is what we usually do. We just thought we would treat ourselves to a taxi. Disappointing we were directed to these taxis by people running the taxi queue. At least we had watched your video and told them to get lost - so thanks

A native New Yorker , I have lived in Paris for 47 years . Watch out for lines 4 and 6 metro and 38 bus . Always keep bag in front of you with hand on zipper and avoid being crushed . Pickpockets work in pairs and hand off easily before you are aware. Tourists in Europe should keep original passport in hotel safe and sightsee with a photocopy in their bag . That is what I do throughout Europe when visiting other countries

can i ask someting ? puis-je poser une question ? comment cela se fait-il que vous aimiez autant la France ? How is the point you like so much France ? and , why only Paris ? et pourquoi toujours Paris ? For I , you seem to be a sort of " priviligiés " you don't seem to be proletarian people So for i , it seems you are in a bisness pour moi, j'ai l'impression que vous faites cela pour l'argent

Do you mind sharing the link to sign up for G7 taxis service? Thank you.

And what's with all the finger waving....?

Paris trying to find every way to fine you. The reduced fare should say kids only-rather tricking people its reduced. The only one that makes sense is putting feet on the seats.

Don't bother. All baloney.

7:32 La mamie a dû demander une "demi-baguette", on est économe en France 😂

When France dissolves, you are not allowed back in 😀😀😀

Something London does best.

Beautiful mentality and mindset. Splendid video.

My family and I are going to Paris in a little over a week and somewhere along the way of planning for the trip, I ran into a couple of your videos. I told my wife about "this down to earth couple who are easy to listen to and give great advice for people like us". She fell in love with your videos and now, after we put our young boy to bed, she tells me that she wants to watch some videos from "our friends". I can't think of a higher compliment than that! Thank you for all the great work you've put into your channel. It has helped us out immensely!

Doe the Roissybus still go into the two stops in the city?

How to enjoy the trip when there are so many things to take note of.

Countries that should be banned from the 2024 Olympics for support of genocide in Palestine. Australia, Guatemala, Egypt, Israel, Paraguay, Bahrain America, India, Morocco United Kingdom, Europeen Union, Argentina France, Jodan, Sudan Germany, UAE, Candia Saudi Arabia, Can you think of any others. I ask that athletes decide for themselves if they should go to this years Olympics if these countries are not banned. Thanks.

This transport looks awful, I have to dislike videos

“French people are Italian people in a bad mood.” - Jean Cocteau

Wow, sounds like a criminal enterprise with so many fines. It shouldn’t be that complicated. In Beijing or Shanghai, you get a card with certain amount of money on it and every time you use the card money is deducted from it no matter who is using it. And most Chinese citizens use their phone to pay and money is deducted directly from their account. Paris seems medieval in This regard.

Really enjoy your videos, may I ask what video editing software that you are using?

Do the French still almost everything: table cloths to tee-shirts?

CAUTION: No pay the fine immediately add 30€ administration fee if it's paid in 20 days. Or 50€ if it's paid in the 45 days. After 45 days the fine is between 180€ and 375€ and the French Tresor ask by the justice the amount directly at your home. Another fine who can cost 150€ + indemnisation (up to 3750€) : Forgot a bag in the station, blocking the doors when they close, speak to loud or loud music. And 25€ if you don't take a wrong way

Love you videos……but I can feel my arteries clogging if this is your daily diet. Do you eat like this at home?

Line 1 Palais Royal to Etoile. The PR station has only five turnstiles and not one of them has the slot for the single trip ticket……..pass scan only. What to do? Sneak in or wait in a LONG line in that cramped station to have someone figure it out for me. I purchase 20 tickets at a time so I can zip from train to train with ease. The Palais Royale station was the only one that didn’t have the single ticket slot.

Don’t they have tap and go with a card or Apple/google pay , seems like a pretty complicated system

What about recommending that we be mindful of the environment in America?

Oops. I disagree with the toilets part. It's extremely difficult to find toilets in the USA unless you consume inside the restaurant/ shop. No free public toilets😢

We are going in two weeks. We will be there 5 days and traveling to CDG airport, Disney and Versailles as well as in the metro area. We have iPhones. After viewing the video and reading the comments it seems like we should purchase Paris visit pass and have it loaded on our iPhone. We can visit zones 1-5 and iPhone tap is working now? Thanks for feedback!

Thank you, very comprehensive lists ❤

This is aMAzing information! Thank you!

Thanks for the tip, planning to go next year. New subscriber here

When my ticket doesnt work i go to the nearest information booth to check first..to make sure❤

Thank you for this yummy French cuisine 😊❤

I didnt see someone well organized like both of you,all the info are really like gold for people that didnt visit paris at all. Thank you alot and god bless both of you ❤

The speed radars have changed the habits for sure. Nicolas Sarközy's invention (when he was Jacques Chirac's fidgety home secretary).

Thanks for the information.

Y'know, I couldn't bear to watch this to the end. "Highway robbery" is what all this is, or maybe "Low-way robbery," considering it's the Metro. Rider-hostile policies and certainly tourist-hostile. Public transport shouldn't be this Byzantine. And paper tickets that you have to sign? 20th C technology, or maybe 19th. Tourists are expected to approach shop workers and others with a cheery, false "Bon Jour!!!" or they will be given surly service. The French are so pissy. Come to NYC. If you fall, we'll pick you up. If you need directions, you'll get them, and maybe even be escorted (I've done it). A simple metro card will get you on to any subway train or bus--no zones--and you'll be surprised by free transfers too. And you don't have to act deferential, either.

Ok but, how are they enforcing that you pay the fine? Is it mailed to you like in the states? Or do they make you pay right then and there?

Can you buy the Navigo with 10 passes and use it after July 20th?

4:19 french are backwards

15:32 This point is completely false. Bringing a bottle of wine to a dinner party is perfectly acceptable and even standard. If your host is a man, don't bring him flowers, the classic thing to bring will be a bottle of wine. However, the bottle you bring will not necessarily be drunk during the evening. Your host has probably already chosen one suitable for the meal he has planned, which is also normal. Great video otherwise =)

This is so helpful!

One of the basic gripes I have is having to push your way through the incoming crowd to get off a métro. Even with the new system where there is a barrier along the edge of the platform to stop people falling or being pushed onto the track (it's electrified) there are still those who will crowd across the doorways to trains. In some stations such as RER C Saint Michel, they now have attendants dressed in red to make sure people can get off trains first without having to push and shove. Yes I do see people who put their feet on the seats and if they get caught, usually they're given a warning. The other thing to remember is that now métro tickets (tickets optile) have been replaced by a blue-coloured card or pass that you load (charge) with virtual tickets, so when you are controlled it's easy to check on. If anyone is interested in finding out how the transport network in the Ile de France is evolving, I recommend a visit to the Fabrique du Métro in Saint-Ouen via the brand-new Ligne Quatorze. As the train is automatic, they've put in a pretend driver's instrument panel so that children can pretend to drive the train, which is a nice idea. First-time visitors to Paris are often surprised to find that some of the métro lines are overhead, so you can get a view as you go rushing past. My favourite is going from Montparnasse to Passy via le Pont Bir-Hakeim on Ligne 6.

We were in Paris a couple of weeks ago. I can’t thank you enough for mentioning the different entrances. Our tickets stated we could enter in the main entrance or the Carrousel. The main entrance line was so long, but using the Carrousel entrance we had no wait at all. That tip saved us so much time!

I have bought the Lourve Tickers. We are a family of 3. Is there a way to get a guide only

Screw it... I'll take a cab.

4 hours! Crack open the Absinthe😂😂I will let you know how I go!

To put the everyday is leg day. I live in Paris and have an office job. Just to go to work and getting back home, it’s 8 000 steps and 20 levels of stairs.

Subway line #6, from Nation to Charles de Gaulle via the South bank is aerial almost all the way and you will enjoy a great trip through Paris.
