Once settled into our Paris vacation rentals, prepare to begin your Paris vacation! Everyone in Paris gets picked up in front of Paris vacation apartments, better still request that Paris based 4 Roues Sous 1 Parapluie meet you at the Palais Garnier opera house. They shuttle you round Paris in a chauffeur-driven convertible 2CV. In the event of rain, take metro lines 7 and 9 (near many of our apartments in Paris) to arrive at Mirosmenil for the Musée Jacquemart André. The museums audio guide tells the story of how Nélie Jacquemart met banker Edouard André when she was painting his portrait. Otherwise refer to our Paris apartments guide for an abridged version. They married not far from a couple of our Paris apartment rentals and travelled the world collecting art, now stored in their very romantic ‘private museum'. After your visit museum, head back to our Paris apartments or treat yourselves to tea and cakes under a Tieopolo ceiling in the café. You could always opt for taking one back to our apartments in Paris.

Time for a drink. Take the bus from St Philippe du Roule station (near our Garnier Paris ...
... rentals) to the Arc de Triomphe. In Summer, take the lift to the 7th floor of the Hôtel Raphael to enjoy martinis with a view of the setting. Our Paris vacation apartments are only a short cab ride away. The showstopper is the vertical garden in the inner courtyard overflowing with hundreds of exotic plants and flowers.

Leaving this glamorous worlds behind, direction of your Paris vacation apartments, stroll down to the river and jump on a Bateau Bus (river boat) at Pont d'Alma. The boats run every half an hour - the ride is magnificent, taking in some of Paris major sights - the Louvre, Musée d'Orsay to name just a few. You will also sail past a number of our Paris apartment rentals. Jump off at Hôtel de Ville and stroll into the Marais for dinner. The 'Marais' is today amongst Paris' most characteristic neighbourhoods. Chances are you're staying here in one of our Paris vacation rentals. It is thriving, trendy and a delight to explore and on the door stop of our favourite Paris apartment rentals. It's medieval lanes are home to impressive mansions, museums, up-and-coming artists' galleries, Paris apartments and designers' showrooms. That said, the area is artistic rather than touristy and has been christened the latest refuge for the Paris artisan fleeing the tourist-trampled St-Germain-des-Pres, location of some of our other apartments in Paris. No surprises then that some of the city's most authentic bistrots, brasseries, cafés and street markets are to be found here. There are so many restaurants to recommend in the area. These are detailed in your Paris apartment rentals guide. One of our favorites is Georget, adjacent to our Marais Paris vacation rentals. The family is called Georget but the restaurant is also known as Robert et Louise, the anachronism giving you some clue for the charm that awaits. This comes highly recommended during your vacation in Paris. All of our Paris vacation rentals are in or near the Marais, so from here it's a gentle stroll home.

We look forward to welcoming you on your Paris vacation to one of our Paris vacation apartments.
