Paris Aims to Enhance Visitor Experience by 2030 Amidst Rising Tourism Figures
Paris is focusing on improving the visitor experience by 2030, addressing challenges posed by high tourism volumes. In 2025, the Louvre attracted 9 million visitors, and the Eiffel Tower welcomed approximately 6.74 million. The city's transport networks, operated by RATP, recorded over 3.14 billion passenger journeys in the same year. The objective is not merely to increase visitor numbers but to enhance the quality of their experience through better timed entry, clearer reservation systems, and a more even distribution of tourists across various sites. This strategy aims to alleviate congestion at major landmarks and promote smaller museums, historic neighborhoods, and cultural routes as primary attractions, thereby spreading visitor spending more equitably throughout the city. Efforts are also underway to improve airport-to-city continuity, provide real-time multilingual information, and ensure accessible transport options.
