Day Trips from Paris

I am Flora Goldenberg, Tour guide in Paris, and I decided to make a simple list of the possible trips in France, from Paris, with a professional Driver.

Here are my best recommandations, sorted below in order of what you “should see” if you have some time to spare in Paris.

I took in consideration the importance of the monument, the distance from Paris, the budget and the beauty of the area to discover.
