How much should I budget for one week in Paris for two people?
For one comfortable week in Paris for two, excluding international flights, budget roughly €3,500–€6,500. A value-conscious trip can be lower; a central four-star hotel, private guides and destination dining can take the total above €8,000. Hotel choice creates the largest swing.
A useful seven-night breakdown
Allow about €1,750–€3,500 for a central hotel, €700–€1,400 for food, €150–€300 for local transport and airport travel, and €400–€1,500 for tickets, tours and experiences. Add a contingency of 10%. Our Paris trip cost guide lets you model the categories.
Where to spend and where to save
Spend on location, one excellent guided visit and the experiences you will remember. Save by walking, buying official tickets directly and avoiding generic packages. Restaurant reservations and official tickets remain at the agreed price when Chic Trip books them; tours and transfers are quoted as clear packages upfront.
