If you are planning a trip to Paris, travel in December. Find yourself on top of the Eiffel Tower, which you will have almost completely to yourself at that time of the year, covered in icicles against a breathtaking backdrop of one of the most stunning cities in the world.
Don't miss the cosy creperies, which offer a warm retreat in the crisp hilly area of Montmarte. And as an added bonus you will not struggle to find a hotel room.
