Most people plan four days in Paris. It's the right amount of time and almost the wrong amount, because Paris is the city where you stop checking the itinerary and just sit longer than you meant to in a café. The places below are the saved-video classics — the bakeries that go viral, the restaurants the food creators won't shut up about — alongside the quieter neighborhoods that don't get tagged.

The sane move is to pick one arrondissement per day. Le Marais on a Saturday is exhausting; Le Marais on a Tuesday morning is one of the best things about Paris. Save Montmartre for a sunset, save the Latin Quarter for a slow lunch, and don't try to do the Louvre on the same day as anything else.

If you're traveling with a group, the trick is voting on the food first and letting the route follow. Pick three meals you all actually agree on, geo-cluster them into walkable days, and the rest of Paris fills in around the table. The metro is fast, the walking is faster, and the pastry is the same price either way.
