Top 10 Things to do in Bercy, Ile-de-France
Lingering over pain au chocolat in a sidewalk café, relaxing after a day of strolling along the Seine and marveling at icons like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe… the perfect Paris experience combines leisure and liveliness with enough time to savor both an exquisite meal and exhibits at the Louvre. Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

We found this park just walking and entering. It was a great experience and my daughter had a blast, especially looking at the fishes in the pond. This is a big park and you need time to explore all the sides. We need to go back and explore other parts of park. There is a lot to spend time. There are bathrooms, swings, places to sit and enjoy lunch or just have a nice picnic. I think I didn't even know about this before, but it was great to find it. I hope you do enjoy it!

This private museum is opende throughout the year, only by apointement in order to experiment the spirit of the place in a lively and participative tour.

this amazing collection of antique carousel and fairground attractions is real treasure chest of goodies. Of interest to all ages it really is a step back in time and all beautifully presented and laid out in stunning wine warehouses a few metro sops from the centre of Paris It is a working museum with the opportunity to see, hear, touch and ride on some magical fairground rides but more than that as totally unique and artistically presented. The tours are conducted in French but the lovely, passionate staff (Libere) really do help explain and include English speaking visitors. The website does not do it justice and it is important to book in advance. This wonderful collection deserves way more publicity as a great alternative to some of the busier and stuffy museums and tourist attractions - do go and see for yourself and come away smiling 16 francs for 2 hours of fun - no-brainer thank you and well done to the owners for saving such unique works of art and history - bon chance

Great car service for getting into Paris from CDG. Friendly courteous driver met us inside. Huge minivan, very clean stocked with water and apples to eat. Double points for accepting a booking after office hours after I forgot to call them... thanks for making our holiday hassle free! Good music on the stereo too.

I went to the Cinematheque a few times when I was in Paris: to see the current exhibition (on Chris Marker), to see the film museum, and to view a couple films. Entry to the Cinematheque building is free (and there is free wi-fi), and there is security at the door. Prices are clearly stated on the website, and I found them reasonable: € 6.50 per film screening, € 12 for entry to both the museum and the exhibition (or € 11 for just the exhibition). Restrooms are plentiful and accessible, though in the museum and exhibition hall they are almost hidden in corners. The Marker exhibit was the main event, and it was truly phenomenal. There were personal artifacts, film artifacts, screenings, and even interactive areas. There was some English information given, but the vast majority is in French (which is to be expected? mine is middling at best, but translation apps are your friend to dive deep). I spent about 3 hours there, and could have spent a full day between the items and the films running. The museum is neat - lots of old cameras and pre-film optical toys - but it is lots of objects and little text. This is great if you enjoy film history and can kind of contextualize things yourself, but you would likely not enjoy it so much without that background (or if you don't speak French). The screening rooms felt like a nicer version of a university meeting room, with no windows and surprisingly comfortable seats. Seating is first come, first serve. All in all, this is a wonderful institution with a good variety of exhibits and films. Check the calendar before you go, and make sure there is something you want to see, and if there is you'll have a great time.

Plenty of choice for meals. We stayed at the in ibis 2 mins away so very convenient. Metro line close by was easy to use. Whilst it could have been a more authentic experience staying nearer the centre of Paris, bercy village provided a less expensive alternative. Would be good for the less experienced traveller.
