What to do, where to eat, shop with my 14 year old daughter in Paris? PLEASE HELP!! LEAVIN N 2 DAYS!?

Actually, just before my 15th birthday this year, my dad and I went to Paris. I was supposed to go when I was 10, so needless to say I couldn't wait. If your trip schedule allows it, you might want to try taking her to Disneyland Paris! It's extremely fun, 2 parks (and one is very small with not as many rides as the main park,) and Disney Village, which has stores, restaurants, a hot air balloon ride, etc. But if you do take her, I strongly advise you not to take her on a Saturday, when it's sure to be extremely hectic. You can drop off luggage in the train station that's literally right next to Disneyland Paris, it'll take you 2 minutes to walk there. You go upstairs and if you pay, you can leave your luggage in a locker (but if you have a laptop with you, they don't allow leaving them in a locker. My dad happened to have his, because once we left DLRP we were going straight into Paris, and the man working there happened to make an exception for my dad, but don't expect a thing.) You can take the train into Paris, the ride is roughly 45 minutes. In Paris, you DEFINITELY need to go to the Eiffel Tower. Going up can be quite a long wait, though, so be prepared and try to get there as early in the morning as possible. You should also go to Notre Dame, my dad and I happened to go inside during mass on Palm Sunday. The area near Notre Dame is also where you'll find tons of souvenir shops. Going a stores few more blocks away from Notre Dame is the smart thing to do if you want better prices...in one store right by Notre Dame, they were selling Eiffel Tower keychains for .80 Euros each, and then in one further away we got 7 for 2 Euros. You should also go to the small restaurants right by Notre Dame in the Latin Quarter and eat raclette! I absolutely loved it, I actually got a raclette heater machine for my birthday! You should also definitely see, if not go up in, the Arc de Triomphe. While you're at it, you should also walk along the Champs Elysees. If your daughter isn't a fan of French food, or if you just want to take her, you can always go to the McDonalds on the Champs Elysees. You should also absolutely go to places like Sacre Coeur, the Louvre, Musee d'Orsay, etc. Taking a boat ride on the Seine isn't a bad idea, either! I suggest also going to Versailles. You can easily get there by train. My dad and I ate lunch behind Versailles on a bench by one of the fountains. Just bring a baguette, some French cheese, something to drink and you're all set. But if you bring food, be prepared to have to leave it with security and pick it up once you're done inside the palace and ready to go in the back. And if you plan on waking around the entire lake in the back, be warned that it's a long, LONG walk. Oh, and you might not want to buy tickets at the palace, because it's quite a long wait, and you'll already be waiting for awhile to get in. There's a place where you can buy tickets on the walking way there, and I would highly suggest going there. While everyone knows about all of the monuments and museums, you should also make your way towards a store called Gerard Mulot. They sell chocolate and sweets GALORE. When I went there, they had boatloads of Easter eggs and little chicks made, so I don't know what sort of things they would have now. But believe me, the chocolate is amazing. But when you're there in all of the hustle and bustle, don't forget to take some time and just enjoy the city for what it's worth. Paris is my favorite place in the universe, and you definitely don't want to miss its beauty. I hope you both have an AMAZING trip!

My favorite place to shop in Paris is Galeries Lafayette they have the top designer names. Also the Avenue Montaigne and Avenue des Champs-Elysées they mainly concentrate on top designer names ie., Louis Vuitton, Dior. Now if you're wanting to not spend money on designer you may also want to check out The Marais its more of an eclectic fashion and very very unique jewelry. Back here in the states I enjoy flea markets and I did find atleast one really decent one called Saint-Ouen Flea Market its really good. But if your wanting to go a little over the top, le Crème de la crème , the Faubourg Saint-Honoré is AMAZING. And with your daughter being a teenager, the Faubourg Saint-Honoré is well known for its cosmetics. Now to eat you HAVE to visit the Laduree Patisserie, it is the best place to get those très bon treats.... Well I hope this helps some. Have fun! Paris is amazing!

I found the site www.tripadvisor.com to be real help when I went to Paris.

You can also visit Disney resort Paris. It's in Marne la vallee. Not too far at all from central paris.
