Layover Tips

Making the most of your time at Orly

4h: With 4 hours in Paris (CDG or ORY), it’s best to stay close to the airport. At CDG, explore the art exhibits and designer boutiques in Terminals 2E–2F, or relax in an airport lounge. If queues are short, take the CDGVAL shuttle to Roissypôle for a quick café stop. At Orly, enjoy the panoramic terrace (when open) and grab a classic French pastry and coffee landside. Because immigration, security, and transport can be time‑consuming, avoid going into central Paris on a 4‑hour layover unless you have an EU passport, no checked bags, and boarding passes in hand.
8h: With about 8 hours, you can get a taste of central Paris. From CDG, take the RER B to Saint‑Michel–Notre‑Dame (about 40–45 minutes) and stroll Île de la Cité to see Notre‑Dame Cathedral (exterior only during restoration) and the nearby Sainte‑Chapelle. Walk along the Seine toward the Louvre’s glass pyramid and the Tuileries Garden for iconic views, then stop at a café in the Latin Quarter or around Saint‑Germain‑des‑Prés. From Orly, take Orlyval + RER B or tram T7 + metro to reach central Paris in roughly 35–45 minutes. Aim to be back at the airport at least 2–3 hours before departure, more if you need to clear immigration again.
24h: A 24‑hour layover lets you enjoy several Paris neighborhoods and a night in the city. After arriving and dropping bags at your hotel, start around the Eiffel Tower and Champ de Mars, then walk or cruise along the Seine for views of Les Invalides, the Grand Palais, and the Musée d’Orsay. In the afternoon, head to the Louvre or Musée d’Orsay for art, then wander through the Tuileries Garden and across to the Right Bank. In the evening, explore Montmartre: visit Sacré‑Cœur Basilica, stroll Place du Tertre, and enjoy dinner at a bistro nearby. If time allows the next morning, browse the Marais (Place des Vosges, Rue des Francs‑Bourgeois) before returning to the airport via RER B or the RoissyBus (CDG) or OrlyBus/Orlyval (ORY), allowing ample time for security and boarding.
