Day 1:
9am-arrive at Eiffel Tower (prebook tickets for 3rd floor)
Go to the 2nd floor and go straight to the 3rd floor elevator queues-wait and take in the view from the top.
10.30am-Cross the road at the north pillar and book tickets for a Seine cruise.I used Vedettes de Paris which was great and takes around an hour but several depart and I think they are all pretty good.
12.00pm- Make your way to the Louvre (prebook tickets if possible) now you can spend an hour or several hours in here but we just went for the highlights-Venus de Milo, Mona Lisa etc.
2.00pm-Lunch on Rue de Rivoli-I like the omlettes from Chez Alexandre just off Rue de Rivoli on Rue du Louvre but there is everything from cafes to McDonalds to A la Carte restraunts nearby to suit your taste and budget.
3.00pm-Do some shopping along Rue de Rivoli and make your way along towards the 4th arrondissment.
4.00pm-Visit Notre Dame-whether you climb it or not is up to yourself - the views are pretty great(although the stairs are pretty soul destroying).
4.30pm-Make your way back along the Seine,visiting the little market stores that line it-selling books and art.Turn into the latin Quarter whenever suits you.Continue shopping.
7.00pm-Take a train to the 9th arrondissment and get off around the Grand Boulevards Metro stop or nearby if possible. Visit the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner.
9.00pm-Visit one on the little local bars and feel sorry for yourself because your feet hurt. Home whenever suits you for bed.
Day 2:
9.00am- Take the RER line A to Marne La Vallee Chessy and visit Disneyland
10.00am-Arrive and go straight to Walt Disney Studios. Go on as many rides and visit as much as you can/want.
Food and drink is expensive here so I'd say have something like one of the little cakes/crisps to stay fulling during the day and have a big breakfast before you go.
2.30pm-Planet Hollywood for lunch.Visit Disney Village afterwards.
3.45pm-Visit Disneyland Park.Stay as long as you need and do as much as you can. Check opening hours for both parks and change your times in each park around this, but i think Disneyland Park is open as late as 11pm in the summer.Have dinner on the way home somewhere near your hotel if you r home early enough and feel like eating (we actually only managed a little cake after our Planet Hollywood burgers).
Day 3:
Have your first Parisian lie-in!Either spend the full day shopping or...
11am-Make your way to the Pigalle area (safe enough during the day) and try to keep a straight face as you pass the countless sex shops (it's the red light district).Visit the Moulin Rouge for photos and walk up towards Sacre Couer-whether you get close to the stairs is up to yourself.Bear in my mind my earlier advice.Views are second to none from the top of the basillica and the building is beautiful.
1pm-Lunch wherever suits you in the 9th arrondisment.
2pm-Make your way to the Arc di Triomphe, take lots of photos and go to the top if you want. Then shop on Champs-Elysees.
5pm-Back to hotel.Change for dinner.
7pm-Head out for dinner wherever you chose and spend your last night either in a trendy Parisian bar in the Latin Quarter or if your budget allows it go to a cabaret such as Lido, Crazy Horse Paris or Moulin Rouge (should be booked before you go via the cabarets website or Viator).
