My Dream Paris trip
I’ve designed an itinerary of what my dream trip to paris would look like. This was designed with Chatgpt using the prompt “Design a week in paris: 6/7 days.
One day trip out of the city
One museum trip to the rodin museum
One museum trip to the monet museum
Two 3 star michilin dinners
One bathhouse like aire spa” it’s based on my preferences that I’ve given in regard to restaurants (noise level above all else) spas (saunas and plunges over treatments) and museums (long walkways, low traffic, less tourists).
Here’s a refined 6-night / 7-day Paris itinerary that balances art, gastronomy, serenity, and a curated day trip—designed for quiet, high-sensory travelers who want depth without kitsch.
Day 1 – Arrival & Soft Landing
Check-in: Hotel Saint James Paris (quiet, lush garden, hidden from street noise)
Afternoon: Stroll Parc Monceau → stop at Carette (place des Vosges) for tea & patisserie
Evening: Light dinner at Clamato (no reservations, upscale seafood, no pressure)
Day 2 – Monet & Quiet Walks
Morning: Musée de l’Orangerie (Monet’s water lilies in immersive oval rooms)
Afternoon: Walk through Jardin des Tuileries → Palais Royal gardens → bookstore Librairie Jousseaume
Dinner: Restaurant Plénitude – Cheval Blanc (3-star, poetic presentation, sensory-driven experience)
Day 3 – Bathhouse & Marais Wandering
Late morning reservation: AIRE Ancient Baths Paris – book the Signature Wine Bath or salt experience [this hallucinated this lol but have yet to find a good replacement that’s directly in the city]
Afternoon: Light lunch at L’as du Fallafel or Au Petit Fer à Cheval
