This article is good for everyone and of course it's perfect itinerary for your first visit too. Also there is am article 4 Days in Paris Itinerary for Your First Visit. You will need to book tickets in advance, this will save you hours when you find yourself in Paris, links for tickets are included in this post.

To avoid museum fatigue, I didn't collect too many museums in one day. Paris has amazing museums, but most people can't visit more than 2-3 museums a day, maybe even just one.

The times in the daily schedule are approximate to give you an idea of the time during the day. Your time may vary depending on the queues and how much time you choose to spend at each location.
