We go to Paris every year for the Tour de France finale! Although the middle of summer can be very hot & humid, the combination of the cultural venues and festive environment make it a very fun experience.

Paris is very expensive. Also, if you go with a superior attitude (defines many Americans), you’ll meet with resistance and rudeness. If you go with an open mind and open heart, they’re friendly, helpful people. Most speak English, but won’t use it if they feel affronted by your behavior or attitude.
