Although it may not always be easy, it is possible to find a place to park in the streets of Paris. Paid parking is available from 9 am to 8 pm, except on Sundays and public holidays. If you don’t have the correct change for the parking meter, you can pay by credit card or via the parking apps almost everywhere. The advantage of paying with your phone is that you don’t need to set the length of time in advance.
Alternatively, follow the signs to a multi-story covered car park, many of which are also accessible to cars up to 6 ½ feet, so choose to rent a VW California for example, and you will have no problems getting around the city! If you are travelling in an RV or camper van, there are several special underground car parks, but we recommend that you leave your vehicle at the campground or at a station on the outskirts of town and use public transport to visit the city center. You can also park for free near the Bois de Vincennes and Bois de Boulogne, but please note that these campgrounds are not supervised.
