- Have you ever had a layover that was long enough to do something with, but you lacked the confidence to go out and try? Well never fear! I'm here to show you not only that it can be done, but how. Grab my guide to Paris (PDF) HERE: bit.ly/ParisVloggersGuide for way more to do, and watch this video for how to visit the six major sites in Paris (Eiffel Tower, Louvre, Notre Dame, Arc de Triomphe, Moulin Rouge, and Sacre Coeur) in under three hours from when you set foot in Paris.
Unfortunately the map for this no longer exists, but I'll make another someday. Keep an eye on my channel, or become a Patron and you can get access to my Mapstr account for all my live recommendations in Paris / jayswanson

@@JaySwanson ok thanks
You need to do japan.
@@JaySwanson Thank you!! We have exactly 3.5 hours, coming in from LeHavre, lol!
this is brilliant, obviously most people will want to spend time at the locations, but knowing how long the journey inbetween takes is super helpful.
I realized that next month I will have half a day in Paris and remembered this video. So here I am reviewing it as to not forget anything on my little itinerary. Thanks Jay!
This has to be one of THE BEST videos I have watched. Thank you so so so much I will be watching again and taking notes for my day trip!!
I just followed your video for a day trip to Paris and it was great! Even started getting the hang of the metro by the time it was all over. My only issue was finding the RER. to Notre Damn, but I didn’t really wanna go anyway. Thank you so much! This video saved my life!
Happy it was helpful!
Great vlog! I go to Paris often, and it usually takes a long time for me to go from one place to another. I am impressed how you were able to do it in just a couple of hours!
Thanks Jay! You've increased my confidence 10fold. Very much looking forward to following in your footstep when I arrive.
I hope you have a blast! =D
I loved every second of this!! No need to apologize. We get it! And I LOVED it. I want the quick hit how to get from point A to point B. It was sooo helpful to see you navigate the metro. I'm prepping for my first trip (solo) and was excited to see everything as if I were really hustling the streets with you! Loved every quick-paced moment. Thank you/merci!!
Happy to hear that it helped! I have a longer video on the metro here if you need some more tips and previews: czcams.com/video/T0YS5si8bJs/video.html
i'm halfway through, and I love this. What you said about people complaining that you're not stopping and enjoying but this is an efficient BLUEPRINT so you can enjoy even more if you have time. Very good. Thank you for this.
Happy to make it!
I was there last year for 4 days, i did ok, the train system is easy to understand. I’ll be going back in December and following your directions as a blueprint, thanks Jay
Happy to help! =D
We used this video to see Paris in peak summer,and had no issue. Great video!!
Happy it helped! =D
I did the vent thing outside of moulin rouge hehe! I was also on my study abroad trip to paris last summer and I convinced my prof to follow some of your advice about sight seeing and he rearranged our itinerary bc of you! It was amazing :)
Thanks for sharing. This video is perfect for individual who probably goin to Paris for work meeting etc n only have less than 5 hourz to do some touristy thing b4 heading to the airport. Great stuff!
Man... You're awesome... I just followed the blueprint... Added a few more stops... My 8 hour Visit to Paris is done... The way you have made the blueprint, so Informative & easy to read...Became a fan🙏
I Will definitely give this a try !
I can’t wait to be in Paris
Thank you for this awesome video.
Happy to help! =D
This was AMAZING just did this TODAY and you could not have guided me more perfect. I almost skipped walking up to the Eiffel Tower then I watched that part while in Paris and was like nah we have to!!! This made my trip AMAZING for a 7 hour layover.
Yess! So glad it worked for you!
Thank you again! I am so glad that you posted this video. We are going in October and staying for two days only. I was worry that I wasnt be able to see all the major attractions.
You can definitely see it all!
I loved this so much! Traveling there on the 5th!! This is super helpful!!
I've got a lot more videos you might find helpful if you're looking 😁👍 czcams.com/video/PNjuSMSy9MU/video.html
Perfect video guide for first timer, going to Paris next week.
Bonjour Jay. OMG. This brings back recent fond memories. We just came back from Paris 2 weeks ago and it’s like being there again although Eiffel Tour had an enclosure around it and queue was long so we skipped it. Good to know again the tips and tricks around Paris. Merci beaucoup Jay et bon courage.
Thank you for making this video. You are a blessing. 🙏🏽❤️🎉
This video is AWESOME! I really enjoyed your trek this go around.
Thanks!
Thanks for the detailed directions from the train to the exact street directions!!! Fabulous. I will be visiting in Spring 2020!!!!
You can even find an updated version of the map over on travelunlock.com
Thank you sir. I will be watching this again and taking notes.
Be careful from January 2020 the 10pack of tickets is increasing in price, you can buy a card at any metro desk which cost less than 2€ and then buy tickets on it the same price than before
I'm sorry if you weren't able to go to Paris due to the Covid-19🥺 my dream has always been to go to Paris❤️🙏🏾
Aaliyah Houston thank you. Your dream will come true! It was my dream as well........expressionztravel on IG has two specials to Paris in Winter and Spring 2021. Check them....

If you go to travelunlock.com you'll find an even better route mapped out 👍
I was recently there and this video was a huge help for us. Can’t wait to go back in September.
Glad it was a help!😊
As someone who will have less than 48 hours in Paris, this is a great video! Love it, thank you
Will be in paris 2 weeks from now. This video is amazing
Thanks! Hope you have a great trip! Be sure to check out my series on the city's arrondissements too czcams.com/video/6AJVXtd_jbE/video.html
This is a wonderful video of information, Jay. ‘Appreciate it.
I’ve only seen a couple of your videos (the other one where you were carrying a gift in a paper bag, & how you learn French), and I like how you present. Very friendly and warm, and really informative.
Thanks!😊 (subscribed!)
I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for subscribing! =D
Great video! You were hilarious & very informative!! Thank you! I’ll be visiting Paris fall 2020 can’t wait!
You're welcome!
This is great man! Very helpful
Sweet! Glad it helped! I have an updated version you could watch as well if you wanted to sneak the Opera in there too 😉👍
I visited Paris in 2011 on a group tour. Your video makes me want to go back and do it again but this time on our own!
I bet you'd have a blast! =D
Even if this is a speed run its really very helpful for anyone who has never navigated the metro there because that's always a travel hurdle, so this video is great even just for the itinerary.
Happy to hand over a map from time to time =D Metro video here if you need more tips on that front specifically: czcams.com/video/T0YS5si8bJs/video.html
FANTASTIC!
Heading out on layover day after tomorrow - thank you so much for this!
Glad it was of help!
I was looking for the American way. Thank You!
This was really helpful, thanks!
Im going in 3 weeks! This is great info
Good! I'm glad it helps =D
Thank you Jay for your trip to Corsica!
Thanks for the vlog, it is very informative and usefull!
Such great content in this early vlog Jay...... 👍 and watching it made me a little out of breath just keeping up with you too 🤣..... but hey as you have shown it can be done ✅ and no doubt there are plenty of visitors who are now singing your praises for having put together such a great “how to” vlog..... merci beaucoup!
It can indeed! =D
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you.
You’re an angel for these videos. Keep up the awesome work :)
Thanks!
Love your work Jay.
Thanks!
THANK YOU, YOUR VIDEO IS SO HELPFUL
We used this video as a blueprint for our 2 day visit in Paris. We got a Navigo pass for about 28 EUR which took us from the airport to the city and we took the metro and bus to go pretty much everywhere. It is a weekly pass. We also improvised and went to Versailles for a half day (included in the Navigo pass). Your Versailles video is spot on: it is a full day experience. We didn’t go in the Chateau, however, the lines were noticeably shorter by the time we left around 3 PM. Thank you for your videos!
I'm glad to hear it! Thanks for watching - I'm really glad that they were helpful =D
Jay Swanson is it worth it to go to St Germaine to the flea market?
Nice i recommend to visit this beautifull city in about 5 days, Paris is amazing....but huge so take your time to explore!
Of course it’s very helpful. Thank you 😊
=D
Hi Jay, it was tremendously helpful and I had a blast. I experienced some confusion in finding the 2 line for the first stop from Gare du Nord but I improvised and then also when transferring to the RER as the signs were not as obvious as in Paris Metro. Loved Notre Dame the most and the St Michel area. I tried to find the crepe place you went to but dont think i did.
As we say in Hawai'i, mahalo nui loa (thank you very much)!!
Great Video! Very helpful!
Glad it helped!
This is amazing! Thank you so much. I will be going to Paris with my daughter, my mom and sister. I actually was looking for a format itiniary for one of the days that we will be there.
I hope it helps =D
Thank you I just adore you for this
Glad it helped!
Excellent tour. Thankyou!
You're welcome 😁👍
Great video. Thanks, mate!
You're welcome! =D
Thank you for doing this video. I'm going to Paris in about 2 weeks (my first time going) So this is v. helpful.
Awesome! I hope you have a blast. Be sure to check out my other videos before you do 😊
Thanks! Great video and it worked I covered all of the stops in 3 hours flat. I did not count extra 30 thirty minutes it took to find the right line and direction, since I did not start at the same place of origin. But it worked out. Next trip here I will try some of your videos and tell friends and family who has stopover or planning a trip to Paris check out this video.
Going to Paris in June, this video is super helpful!
Glad to know it helped!
I'm used the the Tube in London but was nervous about using the Metro, but your video has helped, thank you.
I'm glad it helped! I hope you have a great time.
Hello Jay Swanson .. this video is great i followed exactly the same and covered all places in 5 hrs. thanks buddy :)
Great 👍
thank you so much for this video. will help a lot.💓
You're hilarious! London-Paris for a day trip in March for me... Will watch more of your videos!
Thanks so much for this! I'll use this as a template for the day and a half I have in Paris in a couple weeks. Thanks!
Sweet! Hope you have fun - don't forget the game as well czcams.com/video/VAURakk2yEk/video.html&lc - there's a map on the site to follow (with Opera included) and the waypoints in the game have some special offers as well as being generally awesome. Have fun!
@@JaySwanson , thanks for telling me about The Game! I'll definitely check it out. Sounds like fun!
Thank you, Jay! My daughter took notes. We are visiting in March and we are going to try to do exactly what you did. :))
Awesome! I'll be putting a lot of this into the game I'm developing if you keep your eyes peeled for that in the next month or so =D
This is still one of my favorites videos.
This is awesome thank you!!
It's really important (and I wish more people knew it)!
I am going to Paris for one day. Would you suggest buying a daily RATP ticket? I have read somewhere that it is now valid on the RER train for CDG, could you confirm please? Can I buy it in CDG? Thank you in advance 👍🏻
Great walking guide video. Thanks a lot
Great video ever! Thanks mate
Thank you =D
You are hilarious. This is an extremely well made and engaging video.
wwenyu2 thanks :D
Lolligagging, that's just great. Thanks for all the info. We are going for one day coming in from London.
OMG Jay, I’m watching this for the first time. What a fun video!
The first time I went to Paris was in 2013. The bleachers in front of Notre Dame were kind of nice. My friend Kim and I sat on them for around 35 minutes.
They weren't bad for sitting, just bad for views haha. I can't believe you haven't seen this video before - glad you found it and liked it =D
Jay Swanson I was just letting CZcams play videos yesterday while I was cleaning and this popped up. I stopped and watched because for some reason I thought you were only doing sit down talking to the camera Vlogs back then. It was interesting to see how not only your style has changed but how similar it still is to this video. Great job!
This video made me subscribe! Awesome job!
Thanks for subscribing! =D
This video was amazing, you are amazing. Efficient as hell. Thumbs up.
Get in get out get a croissant
