    I've been to Lyon last year and I thought the city was really nice albeit the people were a bit rude. Paris I've never been to

    Visually I thought Paris was a very beautiful city. The metro is so good too made it so easy to get around the city. If you take a boat ride on the Seine try and time it for dusk so you get a good view of the Eifel tower light show.

    I hear you on that. I compromised instead of going all the way up I just walked up the steps to the second kind of base level and they had a neat glass floor in the middle there that you could walk on and see everything below, plus good views to see all round. That was plenty for me. Not worth the wait to get the elevator from that level all the way to the top IMHO.

    If the lines are not bad have a climb up the stairs in the Arc De Triomphe that has some really neat views to see as well.

    My son and his wife went to Japan for their honeymoon. They absolutely loved it. He has been all over Europe but says Japan blows everywhere he's been to out the water
