This Paris tour involves extensive walking. Our tour (June 26-July 6) averaged 16,000 steps daily. In Paris, streets are uneven and stairs are very narrow. Consider this and what you can physically do before booking to ensure an enjoyable experience. The demands during your trip include:

• Carrying your luggage up several flights of stairs to reach your hotel room (Depends what type of floor you're on. We were on the second floor to start, and then switched to the first floor. Stairs were bearable, just a bit narrow as pictured).

• Being on your feet, walking and standing, for up to three hours, indoors and outdoors, in all weather conditions (Depends on the season. We went in June-July and it was perfect cool weather).

• Sleep with street noise and weak air conditioning (Depends on hotel, ours was perfectly fine.)

• Able to navigate around the city on your own.  (We loved walking everywhere, and it was one of my favorite benefits of the trip.)
