Paris in 3 Days - Every Stop Mapped
You've booked the flight. You've opened twenty tabs. You have a list of places you want to see — and no idea which of them are near each other, or what to actually do on Tuesday afternoon. Nobody tells you that the Louvre and Montmartre are on opposite sides of the city. Nobody tells you the museum you planned for Monday is closed on Mondays. Every guide gives you the top ten sights. None of them gives you a day.
This one is built the other way around.
WHAT'S INSIDE
· Three days, hour by hour — morning, afternoon and evening, from 9:00 to dinner. Not a list of places. A plan.
· The walking distance and time between every single stop. "↓ 12 min walk along the Seine." You always know what's coming.
· A Google Maps link on every location. Tap it and start walking. You never type a French street name into your phone.
· 12.7 km on foot across three days — and exactly ONE metro ride. Day 1 and Day 2 use no metro at all, because every stop connects on foot.
· A dated booking checklist. 8 weeks out: Eiffel Tower. 4 weeks: Louvre. 48 hours: Notre-Dame — and set an alarm, because the free slots vanish in hours.
· 9 major attractions in detail: opening hours, real ticket prices, how far ahead to book, the best time of day, and how long each one actually takes.
· 8 more experiences sorted by situation — if it rains, if you're with kids, if you have an extra day, if you want something local.
· Where to eat: 8 restaurants across three price tiers, plus the 12 dishes worth ordering and where to find each one.
· Where to sleep: 6 hotels and 6 hostels, every one within 6 minutes' walk of a metro station. That was the filter used to build the list.
· A full 3-day budget, line by line, in three tiers. From €269 per person including two nights.
· Scams, pickpocket locations, and the four setups you will actually meet.
· Emergency numbers, 24-hour pharmacies, and your embassy.
WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
It tells you what NOT to do.
Skip the Eiffel Tower summit — the second floor has the better view and saves you €22. Don't eat on Place du Trocadéro. Don't add Versailles to a three-day trip; it costs you a full day and you'll see Paris badly. The Champs-Élysées is a street of global chain stores walk it once, don't shop on it.
Most guides won't say that. This one does on every page.

WHO IT'S FOR
First-time visitors to Paris planning the trip themselves, who want someone to have made the decisions already.
If you've been to Paris three times, you already know this. If you want a 400-page encyclopedia, buy a Lonely Planet. This is a plan, not a reference book.
