Let us open the Paris line...
As everybody knows , in France it is supposed to be illegal but tolerated...
Club recommended :
DIAM'S rue du Colisee Paris (8e).
The street is a side street from Champs Elysees on the left side when you look heading to Arc de Triomphe , two streets before the Paris Marriott.
This club was "the" top couple of years ago but is still to be recommended.
You enter a bar after ringing an outside bell.
Full day there is an open buffet with food.
Drinks are decent price for this kind of place : around $12 a drink and $150 for champagne bottle.
Usually 5 to 8 good looking girls mostly English speaking (it helps our US friends...)
The deal is you select your 1st choice, buy her a drink to make sure you didn't mistake and decide about action.
Playing ground is downstairs.
The key to heaven is to buy a bottle of champagne but they don't push you to the most expensive one, first price works as well as top : that's why it is a good place and not a rip off where they use all tricks to raise the bill like "oh we didn't got delivered from the first price brand..." see (or better don't try to see) in Pigalle's places...
There is no time limit. You will get FS with BJ (or even BBBJ depends on the girl).
For you to know, the girl gets provision on what you buy at the bar upstairs, but if you go downstairs, she doesn't get anything and even lose what was spent before. So she is supposed to make her tip downstairs. That's a good point because she will not try to push you to a second bottle downstairs like in most other place : it doesn't make any change to her and she will give you best service because she knows that you may add to the basic if you are happy...
All a good both side deal.
The basic is $120 but most give $150 for great attitude. Well there is no time limit, beside one : downstairs there are only two playstation lol... so if there is a line upstairs for guys willing to have fun, then the rule is 30 to 45 minutes just to get the things moving for the upper horny guys... lol But even then, they will just discretely let know "be nice to the wiating guys" and you can take no rush 5 or 10 minutes to smoothly finish... what you are on...
In all a friendly place. One of the oldest (not the girls...) in the area and very "business people" end of the afternoon ...
It is more expensive than NL or Germany, but for Paris a fair deal : all will cost you around $400 to spend 2 hours in the place with one hour fun.
Nothing to compare with some rip off famous to tourist like the Baron where $500 will give you... a hug...

John,

I have been to Paris twice. The last time being in 1999. It is a beautiful city, but IMNSHO the sex scene is pathetic. I was afraid to try the American Piano Bars (like I believe you have described) because they were famous for rip-offs and even the better ones were out of my budget at the time. I walked around the St. Denis area several times and most of the ladies were fat and over 40. I did find a few cute girls down toward the far end of St. Denis going away from the river. And I went short time with one of them several different nights for 300 Francs, about $60 at the time.

I love the place, but would only go again with my own female company. The entry requirements are pretty lax for Latin Countries I have noticed. I have toyed with the idea of bringing a Colombiana of Salvadorena friend with me.

Later,

LON-PAR {Implying all airports/and IATA codes} I do like you'll do shuttles.

Paris, by London standards is overpriced -- and London is not a bargain.

Hi City
never said Paris is a bargain.... even I said Germany and NL are far better deals...
London Soho is just a shame... like Pigalle,....
But you can get far cheaper in Paris, but...
see the East Block chicks that give you FS for 40 Euros, but you need a car as it is "drive in" type meaning on the Boulevard des Maréchaux around Paris North.
Gitano
forget about Pigalle area beside tourist nobody would go there.

The best in Paris is anyway the Swinger Club scene.
Will report later on this...

hey John,
Excerpts of my posts following my report on my Rio trip:
"The authorities in France do not know how to deal with prostitution. It is illegal but unofficially tolerated(!)and customers are growing. Instability is the consequence: overpricing, criminal activities, cheating, ugly and provocative street scene which is unbearable for most of the population.
Paris was a paradise at the beginning of XXth century and in the 20's when Toulouse Lautrec was seeking models in Moulin Rouge and Scott Fitzgerald toured Montparnasse. Now it's over.
Nowadays, Toulouse Lautrec would have emigrated to Rio and spend good time in a terma.
French women can be very attractive but now they are almost all feminists or contaminated by the deadly feminist ideology. French men are having very bad times.
This is the reason why I am looking to spend much more vacation in Rio or in Havana (Cuba). For long weekends I am planning trips to Prague and will report to CH. This place seems interesting and we do not have much info on it."
And this : "Pigalle is the last place you should go in Paris. It is a tourist trap. And overall avoid Paris and France if you are looking for sex. I am so sad to write this "
And finally : "it was just interesting to make a comparison between heaven (Rio) and hell (Paris), between a wise position and a desastrous hypocrisy regarding prostitution.
Dude, you are right, a lot of junkies on the streets and even on the Champs Elysees. For those cruising the place in their BMWs on Av. Foch and near Arc de triomphe, I will not care very much: they are expensive, not very friendly, and it is strictly business (smile and nice attitude are not included in the price)."
You see John, I am French and a Parisian too but I do not have a great opinion of the sex scene in Paris. It is just disgusting and tricky.
However, I agree, the Swinger scene has a much better reputation. I can't wait to read your report...

Whoa. Wait a minute. Paris sex scene "pathetic?".
Last time I was there, the street action on Rue St. Denis was still going strong. Yes, you will see some of the most butt-ugly hookers in the western world there, but there are some gems. Pick carefully you can still get joy for 200-300FF.

For more up-market street action, try around the Etoile. You probably need a car to partake.

What impact has the Euro had on Prices?

OK...I have had a few memorable sexual experiences around Rue St. Denis, but they were few and far between and far outweighed by the depressing and the foul. What in the world can you be comparing Paris to NOT to call it's sex scene "pathetic"? The only quality I saw on my last trip to Paris were the outrageously overpriced Russians.

Kuang: "What impact has the Euro had on Prices? "

So you have not been in EU since they moved to actual currency , In the puntering world an instantanous inflation between 10-27 %; depending on what currency it was i.e FF/GM/NG/ITL/AS ...

Was in paris last month. One afternoon I took my rented car into a large park just outside the City: the Bois de Boulonge. Noticed a number of vans parked along the roadways. Some had women outside, sitting in beach chairs or just standing. In others women were in the drivers' seats. All were provocatively dressed. Some gave me a wave.

I parked and walked to a section where 5 or 6 vans were located. A well built, 30 something blond caught my eye. She was Eastern European and didn't speak much English, but made it clear that we would use the rear of the van...20 Euros for blow job, 40 for suck & fuck.befor I knew it we were inside, curtains pulled and she was on top of me. covered blow job, followed by doggie style and missionary fucking.

Related my story to a business colleague. He laughed and said I would have to return after dark, when the real action begins. Will relate that adventure soon.

Hmmmm. It's been many years since I was in that section of Paris, but when I was, my then father in law pointed out to me the transvestites working just as you describe...
