Yes, outdoor activities in Paris are worth it—the City of Light is beautiful, even in the rain and snow. Whether you have an open-air seat on a Bateaux Mouche boat cruising the Seine or in the saddle of a vintage bicycle pedaling Paris’ bike lanes, you’ll have a unique perspective. Plus, you can get some vitamin D and fresh air—both great for beating jet lag.

Per one customer who booked the Versailles Palace Bike Tour with Market & Marie-Antoinette Hamlet, “Great day biking around the Versailles estates. We saw and learned a lot about French history and the Versailles area. One of the highlights of the day was visiting the local market in the morning and getting items for lunch, then having a picnic with the group. Our guide Antoine was great! It’s a full day and I highly recommend!”

Before booking Paris outdoor activities, check the weather for the day you want to do the excursion; a little rain never stops a Parisian from leaving the house, but a torrential downpour or extreme heat may. And read the participant requirements: Some outdoor activities, such as guided cycling tours, aren’t suitable for children, while others, including climbing the Eiffel Tower (yes, you can do that), aren’t advisable for anyone with poor physical health.

To best enjoy your Paris outdoor activity, wear comfortable clothing that you can easily move in. Yes, Parisians are famous for their chic style, but at the end of the day, you’re better off sacrificing fashion for function if you’re going to be outside in the elements. Also, while some outdoor activities have rain gear available for rent, most don’t; if there’s precipitation in the forecast, pack a poncho—you’ll find them for sale at most souvenir shops—or a rain jacket.

Even if you’re short on time, you can find Paris outdoor activities to fit your schedule. Here are some of the best options to enjoy in an hour or less:

• Sunrise Run & Sightseeing in Paris
• Paris Highlights City Tour on a Vintage Sidecar Motorcycle
• Paris Day Bike Rental
