Visa

Irish travellers visiting Paris can usually travel visa-free for short stays, as France is part of the Schengen Area and Irish passport holders benefit from freedom of movement within the EU. However, it’s still important to ensure your passport is valid for the duration of your trip and to check any updated entry or security requirements before travel, particularly for longer stays or specific travel purposes such as work or study.


As regulations can change, it’s always advisable to review the latest official guidance prior to booking and again before departure to ensure a smooth journey.

Transport Options Around Paris

Paris is best explored with a mix of transport options, including walking, metro, trains, private transfers and car hire depending on whether you are staying in the city, visiting nearby regions or combining Paris with a wider French or European itinerary.

Air Travel

Paris is served by major airports including Charles de Gaulle Airport and Orly Airport, offering extensive short-haul and long-haul connections across Europe and worldwide, making it an ideal hub for city breaks, multi-centre holidays and wider European and international itineraries.

Train

Train travel is one of the most efficient and scenic ways to explore Paris and beyond, with high-speed services such as TGV connecting Paris to cities like Lyon, Marseille, Bordeaux and Nice in just a few hours. International routes, including Eurostar from London to Paris, also make cross-border travel simple and comfortable, while departures from key stations such as Gare du Nord make rail an ideal option for travellers who see the journey itself as part of the experience rather than just transport

Bus

Buses and coaches are a practical and budget-friendly way to travel within and beyond Paris, offering useful links across the city and wider Île-de-France region where metro and rail options may be less direct. Services such as local bus networks and long-distance operators like FlixBus and BlaBlaCar Bus also provide affordable connections to other French and European destinations, although journey times can be longer, so it’s important to plan ahead when building a wider itinerary.

Car Rental

Car hire can be a rewarding option when exploring beyond Paris, especially for scenic drives through the French countryside, wine regions such as Champagne and Burgundy, or multi-centre itineraries linking cities, coastlines and rural villages. While Paris itself is best navigated by public transport, a hire car offers freedom, flexibility and the chance to discover more of France at your own pace, particularly when planning day trips or wider regional touring.

Travel Tips for First-Time Visitors

  • First-time travellers to Paris should avoid trying to see too much in one visit: as it’s better to enjoy a few key neighbourhoods and landmarks properly rather than rushing between attractions.
  • Be aware of local hotel taxes: which are commonly added to accommodation costs and can increase the overall price of your stay.
  • It’s also worth planning your airport transfer in advance from Charles de Gaulle Airport or Orly Airport to your hotel, as journeys into the city can take time depending on traffic and location.
  • Unlike some destinations, tipping in Paris is more modest but still appreciated; for good service in restaurants, cafés and taxis, so it’s useful to budget a small amount for this.
  • Finally, keep your first day relaxed: as travel fatigue can catch up with you, and taking time to settle in will help you enjoy the city at a more comfortable pace.

Travel Tips for Experience Explorers

  • Build your trip around regions: rather than just one city when visiting Paris, combining the capital with nearby areas such as the Loire Valley, Normandy or Champagne for a more varied experience of France.
  • Staying in different neighbourhoods: can also change the feel of your stay, with areas like the Marais, Saint-Germain or Montmartre offering very different atmospheres.
  • Use high-speed rail and flights wisely: when covering longer distances across France or Europe, but always factor in transfer times, check-in and potential delays when planning your day.
  • If you’re travelling beyond Paris to popular destinations: it’s worth booking accommodation early, especially in peak seasons when well-located hotels and countryside stays can fill quickly.
  • Finally, leave space in your itinerary for spontaneity: as some of the best moments come from wandering historic streets, discovering local cafés, markets and unexpected neighbourhood gems.
