There are two very good choices for a short one day excursion if you are in Paris and these are, in our opinion, the Versailles Palace and of course the famous Disneyland. Ideally, if you have time, try to do both tours as surely both are worth it. The Versailles Palace is 25 km from the center of Paris by car (about 45 minutes) and about 30 minutes by metro, which is the way we recommend you. Follow the 4th metro line to Vers Mairie de Montrouge and get off at Versailles Rive Gauche station. The ticket costs 3.40 euros per person for the metro and 20 euros for your entrance to the palace.

The second option, which we think is just as awesome experience and maybe a bit better, especially if you are traveling with children, is the world famous  Disneyland. A real paradise for children and adults that you will surely love. At first we were quite hesitant if we had to visit it, as we were traveling without children, but it turned out to be an experience that we will never forget! Even you start your trip very early it’s almost impossible to see everything in the various theme parks. Try to be there early in the morning to prevent the long queues. The simple one day ticket costs 72 euros per person and although it is a fairly high price, we are sure that you will not regret it later. The way we recommend you going to Disneyland is the metro, as it is just 45 minutes from the center of Paris. The stop you have to get off is Marne la Vallée.
