Paris thrills, surprises and takes your breath away. And it is one of the cities that tourists put at the top of their wishlists.

With this list of ten ‘anti-advice’ you will know what not to do when you arrive for the first time in the French capital so you don’t pay the piper.Don’t miss our proposal of Paris in 48 hours.

It is certainly worth a stroll along this splendid street of almost two kilometers, in whose upper part, closest to the arch, are some of the most luxurious restaurants, galleries and stores in the city. But beware! Don’t even think of passing by the shop windows of these stores: what were once all ‘glamour’ today have no charm at all and many of the stores are full of massive groups of tourists, besides the fact that you will spend your entire salary on products that will have no charm and you won’t even need them.
