Welcome to

Première Petite Paris

Your ‘First Little Paris’ Experience

A Solo Support Service for travellers who want to visit Paris SOLO for their first time, anytime!

Dear Paris Dreamer. If you have been dreaming of visiting Paris solo, but have been too nervous, perhaps feeling too intimidated to navigating a foreign city alone for the first time, this service is for you, and the nervousness is SO understandable. I was there myself once, but eventually found my confidence, fell in LOVE with Paris and  started Petite Paris to encourage everyone to enjoy Paris the way I did, authentically in a real Paris B&B and with local support. Like anything in life Solo travel feels scarier when you avoid it. The longer you don't the more impossible it seems. But as soon as you book that flight, something shifts, excitement creeps in, suddenly you're dreaming about all your sightseeing, all the magnificent sights, food you will taste and people you may meet. Booking the flight is the ultimate circuit breaker in shifting from 'I can't' to 'I can'.  Hopefully reading about this service will serve as that circuit breaker for you.
This support service is designed to have you experience a wonderful first solo trip that will leave you feel so confident and capable to visit Paris time and time again - Solo and Strong! It is the combined effort between me and my incredible B&B hosts, offering you a series of services to help make your First Solo Paris trip less nerve-racking, authentic, connected and amazing, with our 24/7 support to ensure the smoothest and most immersive and safe first Paris experience, while staying in a Petite B&B which is truly the best way to experience Paris for the first time. Like a local, not a tourist and with a host who feels like family.
