Embassy

Travelers need to visit an embassy in Paris only when they encounter trouble and need assistance.

The embassy is the place to go when you have lost your passport or have quereies about a potentially dangerous location.

In worse case scenarios, your home country’s embassy in Paris, or consulate will be able to provide you with legal advice and may even be able to advance you money should it be necessary.

However they cannot get you out of trouble if you break the law - you must always follow French law in France.

The Weather
The best time to travel

The weather in Paris can be unpredictable though. For a few reasons most people will say that the spring (April through June) or fall (September through November) are the best times to visit. In general the weather in paris isn’t too extreme in either direction (too cold or too hot), and prices on things like airfare and hotels aren’t at their peak.

How to move in Paris

Most international flights land and leave from Charles de Gaulle airport, which is situated 30km (19 miles) north-east of Paris. The two cheapest and fastest ways to get into the city from Paris CDG are by RER and by bus. The RER train from Roissy-CDG to Paris leaves from the train station in Terminal 2.

Traveling on Metro

The Paris metro is without a doubt the fastest and cheapest way of getting around the city, even if it might not be the cleanest.The Paris metro network connects at several points in Paris with the RER, the commuter trains that go from the city center to the suburbs.
