So
you've decided on taking the family to Paris for the trip of a
lifetime, and you want to find out about travel system buggies.
You probably already know that travel systems
combine pushchairs or
prams with a baby car seat, which allows you to move your baby straight
from the car into the pushchair without disturbing them. This is such
an added bonus - you already have lots to carry so the easier it is to
move the baby, the better it is.
When you're travelling and out and about walking around a new village,
town or city, you need to have comfortable shoes if you're doing a lot
of walking. If you're driving, you want a comfortable car. If you've
got the most comfortable buggy [pram, stroller] for your baby or small
child, you'll enjoy your holiday so much more.
In my experience, if the kids are happy, the parents are happy.
Is it best to buy or rent prams or travel system
buggies?

baby?
To be honest, only you can answer this question.
It might depend on your budget, how long your trip is, and many other
factors.
Some mothers' groups have noticeboards with announcements where you can
either borrow or rent equipment.
If you decide to purchase, consider whether you'll be using a lot of
public transport in Paris [the Metro, buses etc] and how heavy your
pram or stroller is.
If you're renting a car, this might not be a consideration at all.
It all depends on how you have planned your holiday.
Travelling with travel systems can be quite a good decision, even if
you're using public transport.
Say you need to take the train from Paris to Lyon or further afield,
and you wheel the pram on. You might like to detach the baby carry cot
and have the baby on the seat next to you, rather than leave the pram
in the aisle. The pram frame can then be easily folded and placed with
the suitcases in the storage racks.
Would you like to ask about or recommend great
ways of getting around in Paris with kids?
