PRATİK BİLGİLER

Gitmeden bilmen gerekenler.

Turist tuzağı, SIM kart, nakit/kart, taksi ve güvenlik — beş soruda şehrin gerçeği.

Biggest tourist mistake

Museum-marathoning and missing neighbourhood Paris (Canal Saint-Martin, Buttes-Chaumont).

SIM card & internet

Orange Holiday or Free Mobile; eSIMs are very common in France.

Cash or card?

Card and contactless are standard; small cash speeds up the bakery queue.

Taxi & transport apps

G7 official taxis or Uber; fixed airport fares (CDG-centre ~€56) beat the meter. The metro is usually faster than all of them.

Safety

Metro 1 and 4 and the big squares are pickpocket zones; keep walking past the clipboard 'petition' crews.

CITY PULSE

Şehrin 24 saatlik ritmi.

Must Do

  • Picnic in Parc des Buttes-Chaumont — the Parisians' park, not the tourists'.
  • Many national museums are free on the first Sunday of the month.
  • Buy a 'tradition' baguette and cheese and sit by the Seine.

Avoid These

  • Restaurants on the Champs-Élysées or beside Notre-Dame.
  • Pickpockets on metro lines 1 and 4 — keep your bag in front.
  • The 'friendship bracelet' scam on the Montmartre steps.

Tips

  • Start every request with 'Bonjour' — the non-negotiable rule.
  • A Navigo Easy card beats single tickets after three rides.
  • The Museum Pass only pays off for 3+ big museums.

Hidden Gems

  • The Promenade Plantée: the elevated park that inspired New York's High Line.
  • Passage des Panoramas: a 19th-century covered arcade full of bistros.
  • The pastel houses of Rue Crémieux — early morning, respectfully.
