Paris of the Parisians

Season 13 Episode 1307 | 25m 34s

Paris is a world-class city — but also one that to millions is simply home. On this adventure, we're going local. We start at the city's proud symbol, the Eiffel Tower, then cruise the Seine before exploring a few distinctive neighborhoods. We visit the market for fresh food and flowers, window-shop along trendy streets, and cap our tour with a nighttime ride through the sparkling City of Light.

Aired: 11/11/25 | Expires: 01/11/26
