Expert Answer

It's always a good idea to plan and book your trip as soon as possible for your situation. If your arrangements are not being made ahead of time by your travel agent, you can also contact them while you’re traveling to book something for you. If you book with online sites, you run the risk of being walked in the case of overbooking.

Question

I am disabled and cannot walk. How can I get around? Merci.

Community Answer

Bonjour! Its not as hard as it may seem. Avoid places like the Arc De Triomphe. They have no elevator to reach the tunnel. Research places that you can see that would be easy for you to access. I recommend you book a hotel near the Louvre museum in Paris. They are high quality and have rooms for people who are disabled. Also, consider traveling in a wheelchair taxi. Paris has many of these, they call them Horizon taxis. You can request an English speaking driver and they are available in the day and through the evening hours. Remember, planning ahead is the key.

Question

How long will it take to visit the Louvre if I don't have a lot of time?

Community Answer

It depends. If you want to see every single thing in the Louvre, it takes about 3 months. I recommend doing some research about the exhibits that most interest you ahead of time. Otherwise, you can book a tour guide who will guide you through the highlights of the museum in about 3-4 hours.
