First thing every traveler should know is the weather to their place of choice.  In the case of Paris, although spring time is the best time to visit it, hundreds and even thousands of other people are also planning to go there.  One good advice for the first-time traveler to Paris is to plan the visit around the retail sales to get the best bargains for brand names and the wine season. 

Speaking of shopping, first-time tourists should leave their running shoes at home because Paris is the fashion capital of the world and everyone is expected to look good.  Instead, wear stilettos as one tries the exquisite cafés and trendy restaurants.  For going around the city, wear walking shoes instead a sneakers.  Paris can also transform the weary traveler literally.Visitors and tourists can arrive in Paris looking like fashion failures and leave looking like fabulous models.

Another important pre-departure tip is to learn some French before arriving in Paris.  Better yet, bring a good French phrase book or an electronic pocket translator.Visitors should at least know how to pronounce “thank you” and “A table for one, please” in good French.  Even if first-time tourists massacre the language, Parisians will appreciate the effort to communicate with them in their own language.  With some money from the payday advance, travelers to Paris should invest on a good electronic translator, as well as some scarves and sunglasses for walking around the city.

Lastly, serious visitors to Paris should take the time to know their schedule.  Parisians leave their beloved city every last two weeks of August.  None of the darling local cafés and shops will be open. Just remember, a visit to Paris is a memorable event so better be prepared for it.
