I second the Marmottan. It's a wonderful museum and well worth the short bus or metro ride to visit it. I never tire of Paris a could easily spend way more than a week esp for a first visit. There is so much to see and do.

Looking forward to the TR, too - Paris is one of my favorite cities in the world.

And ditto to the above posts -- Marmottan is a wonderful museum and in an area worth exploring. And viewing the large canvases in the Orangerie is also a great experience.

I think I need 2 weeks! Thanks all. Marking all this great info down in my little notebook.

I loved seeing the special Monet exhibit years ago in Chicago.

Kathie-I will be taking notes from your trip too!

Thanks, RonZ, for the self guided circular city tour. I am looking forward to trying out at least some of this route. One question -- can I use a free transfer on these buses as long as I am within 90 minutes?
