Paris france question

[George Pill]

Do I need to obtain a tourist visa to France paris before arrival? Do they automatically issue a tourist visa good for 60 to 90 days? Any advice about Paris. I read the restaurant, brasserie, and restaurant prices are super expensive. Don't want to eat ham and cheese sandwiches everyday. Research shows Le Marais the best location for hotels near shops, restaurants, bus, and Metro stations. Metro and buses are a straight shot to the Louvre. May take 3 days to see the biggest museum in the world. All kinds of museums everywhere. Paris is so beautifully designed and full of architectural treasures. Plan to visit next April to May. My hotel will cost US$7100. ,Will have to up my credit card limits to $20-15k temporarily. If happy I will return next September to November 2025. Any tips about where to go and what to see? Monmartre have hilly streets and the famous shows like Crazy Horse which i enjoyed right to Vegas MGM Grande Hotel. Was cheaper and I sat in the front row. Gone now. Yes, I will see the can can show and the Moulin Rouge. Have been reading and studying many French phrase and pronunciation books plus famous sites. So tired I feel like I've already been there. All of those famous King Louise's loved to spend their money on the arts and crafts. And food. What a destination. Thailand is the past for me. Way too polluted and ripoff expensive foods low in quality and quantity. Wonder if the prettiest ones moved to paris and Pigalle.

EU citizens can visit without Visa. If you're from outside the European union, you have to get a Schengen Visa upfront.

And btw. I totally disagree with your comparison off food and pollution. Guess you haven't been on Paris before

I was talking about THAI food, prices, lower quality and quantity. Increasingly bad and irritating air pollution from chiangmai. Not Paris. I expect to pay lots to eat their outstanding dishes, pains, chocolate deserts and boulangerie delights. Definitely not flying to McDonald's to eat. Will have to make reservations or eat earlier. Paris is super crowded. Parisians fled from the Olympics and increased prices of everything.

So what are the requirements for a usa citizen to enter Paris for a month or two? I don't need any tourist visa. Just arrive at CDG Airport, show my USA passport, and automatically receive a tourist stamp to the most beautiful city in the world full of Michelin-starred restaurants, designer clothes, and jewelry. So much to see and do.

Google Paris tourist visa. Americans can just arrive and receive a 90 to 180 days stay. So much better that Thailand's snail slow visa service.

You are forgetting the cost for a 90 day stay in France is likely equal in cost to a 120 - 180 day stay in Thailand.

My girlfriend has told me a large number of university age Thai lbs have gone to live and work in Australia, but of course they prices they charge would reflect going Australian escort rates.

I'm going for just a month. One hotel wants US$7300 and going up as we near the summer. Good food at excellent restaurants may cost me $50-100 per dinner. Lunch combo specials come with discounts. Good Les Frenchies for all things Paris. They dine at Good expensive bistro. And at cheaper places like boulangeries with excellent ham and cheese sandwiches in Le Marias and Latin quarter.

I haven't seen anything about visa charges for a month visit.

Google Paris tourist visa prices. Sez 143 Euros. Stiff price. Makes Thailand look cheap. Probably need to bring a thousand Euros. Also need to up my credit card limits if I'm going to stay at a $7300 hotel. Sez 10% of tourists are denied entry. Hope they believe I'm really an Asian American 3rd generation with a bona fides USA passport. There seems to be a hard suspicion of Asians as illegal Chinese trespassers. A bitch yelled at me in Canada. A British customs gal was quite a yakker asking me all kinds of questions and yanking about this and that. My tourist guide was surprised and asked me what that was all about. I told she was probably a nymphomaniac. A have heard about French rudeness. 2 smucks yelled at me because I didn't return their hotel key when I walked out. But they weren't French. Just 2 Muslim and African neigros. Surprised how they spread out blankets and start selling fake designer purses. At the Leaning Tower of Pisa there's a bunch of darkies bullying tourists and demanding money. They will snatch purses, jewelry, and pocketbook. Don't blames Greece for letting them drown in the oceans. Just too many of them. Too many wars going on and too many fleeing fir a better peaceful life. This earth is way too crowded.
