Its our 3 year anniversary in June and I am thinking about taking my wife to Paris for a day trip on the Eurostar. What are the best things to see in a day? Has anybody done Paris in a day, any tips? Is this worth doing in a day considering the travelling time? What is the train journey like? With thanks in advance

Well, I've been to Paris a few times. I think if you were to queue (maybe up to an hour) to go up the Eiffel Tower then from the top you can see most of the sites. So afterwards you can actually say you did see this, you did see that etc.
That still leaves the afternoon. A boat trip on the River Seine takes about an hour and you could even take some lunch with you.
Afterwards you can either fit in Notre Dame or the Sacre Coeur (Montmatre). I would go for the latter because Montmatre is absolutely beautiful and my favourite part of the city. Again you get a very good view of the city, the Sacre Coeur is beautiful, and behind there are the artists and cafes to spend more time. (the Impressionists used to hang around this area in the 1800s)
Flump eh?
