In this episode of Busy Gallivanting, I’m revealing the secrets of Paris—my favorite lesser-known tours and hidden experiences from my recent solo trip. While Paris might not have completely won me over, these off-the-beaten-path adventures made me see the city in a whole new way.
From a Paris ghost tour that dives into the eerie side of the city’s history to a speakeasy crawl through hidden cocktail bars and a tucked-away fragrance museum, I’m sharing the moments that surprised me most—and reminded me why I love traveling solo.
I also reflect on iconic landmarks like the Eiffel Tower and Versailles, and how pairing those classic sights with slower, more curious wandering created a richer, more memorable experience.
If you're planning a trip and looking for unique things to do in Paris, this episode is for you.
🎙️ Plus: What it’s like to explore Paris after dark, the thrill of finding secret spots, and why leaning into the unfamiliar pays off.
