Iconic walks you can’t miss
- Montmartre and its bohemian alleys
- Le Marais with its hidden courtyards and trendy shops
- The Seine riverbanks, perfect for a sunset stroll

Free museums all year long :
- Petit Palais
- Museum of Modern Art of the City of Paris
- Victor Hugo’s House in Le Marais
Big museums free on the first Sunday of the month :
The Louvre, Orsay Museum, and Pompidou Center all open their doors for free once a month.
Tip: Go early to avoid long lines.
Parks & Gardens – The City’s Green Luxury
Parisian parks are havens of peace where you can picnic, read, or simply breathe. And they’re completely free.
- Luxembourg Gardens
- Buttes-Chaumont Park
- Jardin des Plantes
- Square des Batignolles – right next to Joli Môme, a hidden local favorite
Tasting Paris Without Overspending
Food is part of the Parisian soul, but you don’t need fine dining to experience it.
Local markets
- Batignolles organic market
- Aligre market
- Marché des Enfants Rouges, the oldest covered market in Paris
Live Paris Like a Local
Instead of chasing only tourist attractions, immerse yourself in Parisian daily life:
- Discover street art in Belleville or the 13th arrondissement
- Enjoy free concerts and exhibitions in local cultural centers
- Stroll along the Seine riverbanks at sunset
- Explore the Petite Ceinture, a former railway turned into a green trail
Yes, Paris on a budget is possible – and it can be unforgettable. Between free walks, open museums, leafy parks, bustling markets, and Joli Môme’s inclusive hospitality, every day in Paris can be built around simple yet memorable moments.
Paris on a budget is not about missing out – it’s about discovering the city in a more authentic and human way.
