Privat biltransfer från Haarlem till Paris

Paris became a cultural, religious, and political hub during the Renaissance and the Enlightenment. The wealth and power acquired during colonization under the French Empire was concentrated in Paris, and it was also the center stage for the French Revolution.

In the 1800s, Napoleon III and Baron Haussmann transformed Paris with its iconic grand boulevards that we recognize today, although their redesign was not without controversy.

Paris’s reach abroad

The legacy of the French Empire remains prominent in Paris. Parisians come from all corners of the globe and its restaurants offer cuisines from near and far. Numerous multinational companies choose to put their headquarters in Paris and it has the busiest airport in the European Union.

French is spoken by over 320 million people worldwide, most of whom live outside of France. Even the term lingua franca, meaning “the common language,” originates from a time when French was the language of trade. Today, French comes in many dialects and creole forms, but Parisian French remains the textbook standard.

Paris: a premier destination

Each year, over 40 million people visit Paris for its art, food, and atmosphere. Paris's museums are home to the world’s masterpieces and the classic symbols of French architecture like the Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower are popular attractions. For students of the French language, it is the ultimate test of proficiency.

Whether it is your first time visiting Paris or you’re a full-on Francophile, there’s always something new to see. Bon voyage!

Flights from Haarlem to Paris

The closest airport to Haarlem is Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport (AMS). KLM and AirFrance have daily nonstop flights to Paris and tickets cost an average of €155.

To get to the airport, you can take a 15-30 minute taxi ride for about €55. Alternatively, you can ride the 300 bus from Haarlem’s central bus station straight to the airport for €3. While the flight is only 1 hour and 10 minutes, you need to get to the airport 2 hours before departure, wait to get off the plane, wait for your luggage, and then get from the Paris airport to your accommodation. All this adds at least 3 hours to the total travel time, making the direct train the faster and easier option.

Buses from Haarlem to Paris

The Louvre Museum is a contender for the best art museum in the world, and like the Eiffel Tower, should be at the top of your itinerary. Even if you’re not an art enthusiast, there are thousands of works from around the world, so there’s always something new to discover. The legendary Mona Lisa is always a crowd-pleaser.

Sacre-Coeur

Sacre-Coeur is the second-highest structure in Paris (first place goes to the Eiffel Tower!) and is the best spot for photos overlooking the most romantic city in the world. Its full name is the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris and is perched majestically atop Montmartre. You can walk up or take the funicular, and the best time to visit is in the late afternoon to catch the golden hour before sunset.

It is free for the public to quietly admire, but not open to noisy group tours, since it is an actively used worship space.

The Paris Catacombs

After seeing Paris from above on Montmartre, head underground to the famous Paris Catacombs. This extensive series of tunnels and rooms spans 174 miles (280 km) and extends five stories underground. The bones of 6 million people have their final resting place in the ossuary, and many sections are structurally unstable and blocked off from the public. Rumors circulate constantly of the hidden communities and criminal activity taking place right under unsuspecting feet.

The ticket booking system may require you to set an alarm to secure your spot. Booking is open exactly 7 days before the tour takes place: if you’d like to tour on a Wednesday at 11:00 AM, you will need to order the tickets online at 11:00 AM (Paris time) on the Wednesday before.
