We're going to be in Paris for a couple of days soon. We've been there before and covered a lot of the tourist highlights already, so it would be nice to do something a little different or see something that might not make it to the usual top 10 lists. Any suggestions? We'll be with our 18 year old, fwiw. Also, any restaurant recommendations that might have a lot of options for vegetarians?
Thank you! |

I also liked visiting the urban farms but that might not be in season now |

I second the recommendation for bike tours. My teen sons and I have done bike tours in several cities, and we did two different tours in Paris. Great fun.
We also did a baking class, which we enjoyed. I thought the VR experience of Notre-Dame was pretty cool. (Younger son had to stop partway through because it was making him sick.) (Note there are two locations -- right near Notre-Dame and out at La Défense.) https://www.eternellenotredame.com/en/ |
