For all the tourists wanting to visit Paris without burning a hole in their pockets, fall is the perfect season. It has comparatively lesser people and therefore, a little more space. The weather is still at its best with enough sunny days and the pretty foliage of the season. Though, it is important to follow the dates of the Paris fashion week which takes place at this time of the year, bringing back crowds to the city and a surge in prices.

Paris does not experience snow fall frequently. It is a rare phenomenon. In winters, the skies are grey and dull. And rains can be expected at any time. Though, it still makes for a great chilly trip around the city with the upside of having empty streets and museums without queues. You can simply sit in one of its many bistros and enjoy a warm cuppa coffee or hot chocolate. Christmas is also a great time to be in the city. During Christmas, one can enjoy the large ice-skating rink that is set up at the boardwalk in front of the Hotel de Ville. 

Spring (March – May)

This is the best time for people on a budget trip. The thawing winters have gone past, but Paris in spring is still not as crowded as the summer months. There is a fresh vibe to the Parisian beauty. Spring in Paris is every first-time visitor's dream come true. Most hotels and airlines have lower rates as it is considered to be the off-season.
