Paris may always be a good idea, but there’s plenty to do and see outside the City of Lights too.

From the grandiose former abode of the French monarchy to the beaches that saw some of World War II’s most significant battles, these day trips from Paris are worth going the distance for.


Many will agree, you simply can’t visit Paris without adding a side-trip to Versailles. The political hub of France from the mid-17th century until the fateful events of 1789, Versailles holds a special place in France’s history, it’s magnificent palatial grounds remaining testament to the countries architectural finesse. With a bounty of Versailles tours to choose from, and at just 22 kilometres outside of the capital, the most impressive of sites on our list of Paris day trips is perhaps the most accessible for travellers too.
