Will the 2024 Paris Olympics be chaos? Probably, but we’re hoping mostly the good kind. This is our comprehensive guide to the Olympics in Paris with full citation links below, and the link to our guide right here https://go.parisinmypocket.com/vZqDhx'>https://go.parisinmypocket.com/vZqDhx get it for everything you need to have a great time whether you're coming for the Olympics or anytime after.
The most chaotic period of the Paris Olympics is going to be the eight days leading up to the opening ceremony, and the day of the Opening Ceremony of the Olympics itself. Otherwise, the main takeaway from all our research is that Paris has worked really hard to make sure the Olympics are as unobtrusive as possible. Most of our favorite things in Paris won’t even be close to the crowds.
