3:33 a.m is a special time. Highly recommend.

Touristy things are usually awesome. They are popular for a reason.

Valid point.

Rent a bike, race around the Arc de Triomphe and try to dodge the cars

RC Vikings

...and throw both fists in the air as you pass under the Arc.

I heard they had rats

Well it is Paris. Rats are to be expected.

RalphWiggam

Sorry. That was on my trip to Italy. Maybe it was French Toast in Paris.

The Rodin Museum, quite small compared to most museums in France, but amazing sculptures

Base jump from the top of the Eiffel Tower. Bonus points if you don't have a chute or wingsuit.
