Getting Around Paris

Practical Paris Tips

Always greet shopkeepers with 'Bonjour' upon entering; it is considered essential etiquette in French culture.

Be extra vigilant with your belongings in crowded tourist areas like the Eiffel Tower and on the Metro to prevent pickpocketing.

Solo female travelers should feel comfortable walking in most areas, but keep your bag zipped and close to your body in transit hubs.

Use the 'Bonjour RATP' app to purchase and load digital tickets onto your smartphone for seamless public transport travel.

A universal plug adapter (Type C/E) is required for most visitors from outside Europe.

Tipping is appreciated but not mandatory; rounding up your bill at a café is a common local practice.
