# Paris in 5 days: the bookable stuff, sorted

What to book ahead and what to just walk to. Book Louvre, Versailles, Sainte-Chapelle and the Opéra before you fly; slots sell out. Prompt to make your own: "Plan 5 days in Paris for a couple, mix of museums and evenings out, link the official booking pages, and save it to onelink."

- [Louvre](https://www.louvre.fr/en) — Day 2. Book a timed slot online. Go for the first slot and head for the Denon wing before the crowds.
- [Château de Versailles](https://en.chateauversailles.fr/) — Day 3, full day. Palace in the morning, gardens after lunch. Closed Mondays.
- [Musée d'Orsay](https://www.musee-orsay.fr/en) — Day 4. Impressionists on the top floor; the clock window is the photo everyone wants.
- [Sainte-Chapelle](https://www.sainte-chapelle.fr/en) — Pick a sunny morning. The stained glass is the whole point.
- [Atelier des Lumières](https://www.atelier-lumieres.com/en) — Immersive digital art in an old foundry. A good rainy-afternoon plan.
- [Catacombs](https://www.catacombes.paris.fr/en) — Tickets go on sale about a week ahead and vanish fast.
- [Sacré-Cœur, Montmartre](https://www.sacre-coeur-montmartre.com/en/homepage/) — Free. Walk up through Montmartre rather than taking the funicular.
- [Arc de Triomphe rooftop](https://www.paris-arc-de-triomphe.fr/en) — Go just before sunset for the view down the Champs-Élysées.
- [Musée Jacquemart-André](https://www.musee-jacquemart-andre.com/en) — A mansion-museum with a lovely tearoom. Quieter than the big ones.
- [Musée Nissim de Camondo](https://madparis.fr/nissim-de-camondo-museum) — 18th-century interiors next to Parc Monceau. A hidden gem.
- [Seine cruise: Bateaux Mouches](https://www.bateaux-mouches.fr/en) — Arrival evening. Take the last cruise to see the Eiffel Tower lit up.
- [Palais Garnier / Opéra](https://www.operadeparis.fr/en) — See a show, or just do the building tour by day.
- [Disneyland Paris](https://www.disneylandparis.com/en-gb/) — Only if you have the day to spare; it eats a full one. Book tickets and the RER ride ahead.
