Paris · NIGHTLIFE
A short list for a short stay: 6 nightlife experiences, each with the price, the reviews and the one detail to check before you pay.
Start in central Paris with a local guide such as Amine or Omar, then walk between two or three bars and finish at Café Oz Châtelet. Expect drink deals, a shot with your first purchased drink at each bar, and skip-the-line entry to the club. It suits solo visitors and anyone who wants company for a night out.
“Was great way to meet new people in Paris and visit some bars :)”
Meet your guide at RoadHouse Bar for a four-hour Latin Quarter pub crawl through three bars and a nightclub. Expect ice-breaker games, a free shot with a drink purchase at each bar, drink discounts, and VIP entry. Guides have included Emma, Archie, Archita, Amin, and Jack. Bring physical ID and dress for club entry.
“Emma was amazing, the pub crawl was very fun, we play alot of games”
Spend an evening moving between Latin Quarter bars and a Saint-Germain venue with an English-speaking guide. Expect a group photo at the Pantheon, free entry, and one complimentary shot per bar when you buy a drink. The crawl lasts about four hours; drinks and public transport tickets are extra.
“The tour was great. Went on a Thursday with a small group of 14 but I liked it better that way. My only complaint is that they didn’t advise us of the change in the meeting place. Luckily, there was a number to call.”
Spend about 70 minutes with French comedian Olivier Giraud as he pokes fun at Parisian habits, expressions, and social rules in English. The show is at the century-old Théâtre des Nouveautés near Grands Boulevards, with three seating categories and possible audience participation. A ticket costs about $29.04 and includes a photo with the comedian.
“A hour of laughter! Olivier's comedic timing and wit had the entire audience in stitches throughout the evening. One of the most memorable parts was when he pulled my husband on stage as part of his act. It was all in good fun and added a personal and hilarious touch to the performance. My husband loved being part of the show, and we'll be talking about it for years! He has an incredible ability to connect with the audience, making everyone feel included in the laughter. If you're looking for an entertaining show in Paris, I can't recommend this enough.”
Start at McBride’s Pub on Rue Saint-Denis with an English-speaking guide, then visit 3 to 4 bars and a nightclub. A shot comes with your first drink at each bar, and happy-hour deals help keep the evening’s costs in check. Guides including Omar and Amine are known for bringing the group together.
“Really fun pub crawl in Paris, great way to meet other travellers. Our guide Omar had great energy, we had a great night thanks to him!”
Meet your English-speaking guide near Filles du Calvaire metro, then visit two secretive Paris bars, with routes sometimes including a third. Look for concealed doors, password entry, and very different cocktail styles. Guides such as Pierre, Maëva, Norbu, and Mohona have led groups, though your guide may vary. Soft drinks are available, and food is not included.
“Pierre was amazing! We found a very good speakeasy they had Mezcal and then we went to another one with more traditional speakeasy drinks. Vibe was great, highly recommend!”
Pick a landmark, a quarter or a table.
