Due to the fact that there are a huge number of travel companies operating there, which are always ready to meet the client’s needs, it is always possible to book a tour in any direction, be it Paris-Strasbourg, or the castles of the Loire.
You can also go anywhere in the country on your own by planning such a trip on the weekend, precisely when most of the establishments in Paris are closed. Excursions from Paris to Europe are just as possible as domestic tours. And if at first it may seem that the dream of seeing other European countries is difficult to achieve, then in the process of preparation it becomes clear that everything is quite simple.
Excursions and tours from Paris to other countries
The geographical location of France facilitates this kind of travel. Next to it are European countries that have a huge number of interesting places, including architectural monuments, museums, parks, gardens and simply beautiful mountains and lakes.
After getting to know Paris, you can get an excellent opportunity to visit the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Great Britain, Germany, Monaco, Italy or Spain.
A guided trip to one of these countries usually takes a day or two. If you are planning such a vacation on your own, you can spend as much time there as you want. After all, in order to see everything, you need many days, and sometimes years. The only thing that needs to be taken into account is the length of legal stay in the country. You may have to travel to France and back, which is expensive and inconvenient.
The prices for such excursions from Paris are quite high. So, for example, a sixteen-hour tour with a guide will cost 700 euros from a group consisting of 1-3 people. In Bruges you can go in ten hours and 650 euros, visit at the same time Brussels and Bruges it will work out in 800 euros.
Trip to the Benelux countries
Benelux is a trio of small European countries located next to France. Each of them is interesting in its own way, and it is there that many Parisian individual guides and companies that provide such services like to organize excursion tours most of all.
Day excursions to the Netherlands or Belgium have long become traditional. Tourists like these places because there is so much to see, but the palaces, castles and museums do not attract as many visitors as, for example, Paris. In addition, in the Benelux countries you can buy thousands of different varieties of tulips, Dutch cheeses, Brussels lace, exquisite Delft porcelain, Bruges tapestries, world-famous beer, delicate chocolate and much more.
Most tourists prefer excursions from Paris to Amsterdam or Brussels, but, in fact, you should not limit yourself to just these cities. It is advisable to visit Luxembourg, Antwerp, Rotterdam, The Hague and Bruges. If your time is limited, choose those settlements where the largest number of attractions are located
She, which in your opinion may be interesting.
Amsterdam will appeal to those tourists who like to visit museums (Madame Tussauds, Rembrandt's house, Historical Museum, etc.). There you can also wander through quiet streets with low-rise buildings, look at ancient churches, sit in small squares or in one of the city cafes (there are about one and a half thousand of them in the capital of Holland) and take a ride along the canals. In addition, hemp is openly sold in this city, diamonds are processed, there are many gay clubs, the notorious Red Light District and even the Museum of Sex. The Paris-Amsterdam tour will be an excellent addition to your holiday in Paris and will definitely be remembered for a lifetime.

Dear clients, we provide assistance in obtaining multiple Schengen visas through the Consulate General of Finland for tourists with permanent residence permits in the North-West region (except Karelia, Murmansk region, Kaliningrad region).
According to the Schengen rules, Schengen visas should first be obtained from the embassies or consulates of the countries of primary residence. If the main country of residence is another Schengen country, the Finnish Embassy or Consulate cannot issue a visa, even if the trip is in transit through Finland. For example, if you plan to travel by car through Finland to Sweden on vacation, then a visa should be obtained from the Swedish Embassy or Consulate.
Cost of obtaining a Finnish multi visa:
- 80 euros visa without insurance
- 80 euros (semi-annual, annual) + 550 rubles. insurance (for 30 days)
The Consulate General of Finland allows you to request annual multi-visas only if the tourist has already had a Finnish multi-visa within the last 3 years.
Please note that if you are over 70 years of age, the cost of insurance is higher than the standard one.
Increased coefficient for age insurance:
For other ages (including children from 7 to 18 years old), the cost of insurance is standard, i.e. 550 rub.
Accordingly, in order to calculate the cost of a visa with insurance for tourists whose age falls under the criteria of this table, you need to multiply the cost of standard insurance by the corresponding increasing factor and add the cost of the visa to the resulting number.

If the child is applying separately from one of the parents, then it is necessary to provide a copy of the notarized consent for the child to travel abroad from the parent unaccompanied by whom he is going on the trip. If the child is applying separately from both parents, then consent to travel abroad must be provided from both parents. The consent must contain a phrase about permission to enter and exit “to the Schengen countries, including Finland.” Consent must be valid at the time of submitting documents to the consulate. For example, if a trip is planned from the 20th, then permission to leave is given from the 1st of the same month or earlier, so documents are submitted to the consulate, as a rule, 3-4 weeks before the planned departure date. The Finnish consulate does not accept consent to amendments made, including those notarized.
From 07/01/2011, the Consulate General of Finland also does not accept consent that is more than 1 year old at the time of submitting documents to the consulate.
We also draw your attention to the fact that as of January 28, 2011, a new type of seal was introduced for notaries. Please clarify this issue with the notary when registering your consent.

Request for cancellation of a valid Schengen visa download
Please note that the Consulate General of Finland does not accept foreign passports with entry/exit stamps covered with visas and stamps from other countries! The laminate of the passport should not depart from the paper base. In addition, a foreign passport may only contain stamps indicating border crossings, issued by customs or border services. If there are any other stamps in the passport, for example, souvenir stamps, the passport is considered invalid by the Finnish consulate.
Since October 18, 2013, a new rule has been in force for calculating the number of days of stay in the territory of the Schengen countries.
Within 180 days, you can stay no more than 90 days in the territory of the Schengen countries: for each day of stay, the previous 180 days should be taken into account. Days on both the current visa and the previous one are taken into account.
The rule of calculating six months from the moment of first entry is no longer valid.
Thus, at the time of crossing the border, the number of days already spent in Schengen territory should not exceed 90 in the last 180 days. For example, a person passes border control on September 13, 2013. From this date we count the previous 180 days, resulting in the period from 03/18/2013 to 09/13/2013. During this period, the number of days of stay in Schengen territory should not exceed 90 days. The number of days spent in Schengen territory should not exceed 90 days in the last 180 days, both at the time of entry into and exit from the Schengen countries.
Below is a table to help you count the days used. This table is not an official calculation tool, but only an aid to explain the new Schengen rule.
