Paris, the city of love, is the perfect place for couples who want to celebrate St. Valentine's. Whether it's a vacation or a romantic stay-cation, Paris offers plenty of opportunities to create memories that will last a lifetime.
Here are some ideas for romantic activities for couples in Paris on Valentine's Day vacation.
1 - Watch the sunset at the Eiffel Tower
There's nothing more romantic than strolling around or going up the Eiffel Tower watching the sunset over the city. Enjoy a glass of Champagne at the summit of the monument while taking in stunning views of the city lit up at night. If you want to make it extra special consider booking a table at the elegant Le Jules Verne, a Michelin star restaurant on the tower. You will skip all the lines and you will be treated like a king and queen while enjoying the pleasures of an original and modern french cuisine.
2 - Do a picnic in the park
Pack a basket of delicious treats and wine and head to a picturesque garden for a romantic picnic. Some of the tranquil oases in the heart of Paris that we love are:
the Parc Monceau
the Place des Vosges
These places are perfect to relax and enjoy each other's company under the trees during a warmer day.
3 - A Seine River dinner cruise
Get a different perspective of the city on a Seine river cruise. Enjoy views of Paris' most famous landmarks, including Notre Dame and the Eiffel Tower, while sipping wine and cuddling up close. We recommend you book dinner instead of lunch to be able to see the city all lit up.
4 - Dine in a romantic restaurant
Paris is full of romantic restaurants with a cozy atmosphere and delicious food.
Here is our selection of our favourite romantic restaurants in Paris to consider for a Valentine's Day dinner or any romantic evening:
