For the fourth year running, France's City of Light has been named the most attractive city destination. While the Olympic and Paralympic Games have unsurprisingly kept Paris riding high in the list of top destinations for global travelers in 2024, Europe's other iconic cities round out the top 10.

From the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games to the reopening of the Notre Dame cathedral, the City of Light has been firmly in the spotlight in 2024. As the year-end brings its share of tourism rankings and reviews, Paris takes the top spot in Euromonitor International's list of the world’s top 100 city destinations for 2024.
