Hello! My boyfriend and I are already spending 4 days in London and 3 days in Paris in August. Trying to figure out what to do after Paris. At first we wanted to go to the French Rivera to relax at the beach after a pretty tourist filled week, but we didn't realize how far of a train ride it would be. We also realized it would be the busiest/most expensive time to go.

Ideally looking for a train ride from Paris under 3 hours, and bonus if it is costal or beach!

Was thinking one of the french courtysides or maybe Brussels?

Hi all!
My bf and I a (26 year olds) are thinking of flying to Nice for a long weekend after we spend 4 days in London.

I've been to Paris and know pretty much everyone speaks English, but is it the same in the South of France?
My other question is, we'll be going in August and I know that's when the French take their holiday. Is it worth going? Will things be open?

If anyone has any recs of what to do in the South of France or where to stay- please let me know. TIA!

Hello all! My BF (26M) and I (26F) and I are planning a trip this summer to Europe.

We know we definitely want to spend at least 4 days in London. Then debating whether to do 4 days in Paris or Nice.
I've been to Paris already before in high school and I have always wanted to see the south of France.
But my boyfriend has never been to Paris and as a history teacher I know he would love it.

There's still so many things I haven't done in Paris like the catacombs, Versailles...

Do you have any recs of good day trips from Paris?

We like a mix of tourism and also relaxation.
