My husband and I went to Paris over the holidays and were very disappointed by the city in general -- the museums and food are wonderful, but the city is vastly overrated otherwise.
One big downer to the vacation was the people. The people in Paris are rude and unfriendly. This is the first vacation I've taken where the locals were so unwilling to help us. People say that the French are only like this toward Americans, but this is not true (we are not American, were not speaking English, and they were still rude). I didn't realize what a difference the locals make in shaping one's vacation, but it really is true.
I had high hopes for Paris but came away very disappointed. There are plenty of better places to visit where the people are warm and inviting.
