Le Montclair Montmarte Hostel Paris

Well Paris has been the best way to finish our trip! We arrived early on the 24th after an overnight train from Hendaye. We found our lovely hostel in the lively area of Montmarte just below the Sacre Coeur at about 8:30am. After a little nap we ventured out and explored our area including the Sacre Coeur and Moulin Rouge! Yesterday we packed as much in as possible! After a little lie in and having breakfast at the hostel we set off on the Metro for the Louvre. We then walked along the Seine to Notre Dame where we queued briefly to get inside. We had lunch outside the Notre Dame and then walked to the Pantheon and Palais du Luxembourg. After chilling here for a while we then explored the St Michel region and found a restaurant on Rue de Buci called Atlas where we had a delicious French dinner (paid for by my parents as a last day treat - thanks guys!) Full on French food and cider we then got the Metro to Arc de Triomphe which was amazing! We then walked to the Eiffel Tower at about 8:30pm. We only queued for about 40 minutes and got reduced price tickets for the lift to the top being students. We then got the lift up to the top at about 9:20pm - I was quite wobbly on the way up but when we reached the top it was so breathtaking it was absolutely worth it! The view of Paris at night is seriously the best thing we've seen this whole trip and such a fantastic way to finish our journey! We spent about an hour and forty minutes on the tower and managed to get the lift down in time to see the 11pm light show! We then got the Metro back to the hostel and went straight to sleep being shattered! Today we're just chilling in the hostel until we make our way to Paris Orly airport for our 6:50pm flight back to Southampton! Crazy to think we're at the end but we've done so much in 32 days!Meer informatie
