I am transferring from Paris to another flight and I will be reaching Paris at 6:15AM and waiting till 1:30PM in the airport what is the best suggestion for me if I want to take a small tour or go in Paris to look around, and come back to catch my flight.
I will be going to Charles de Gaulle (CDG) in terminal 3
then coming back to another terminal
Realistically there is little you can do in such a limited time.
It will take you time to deplane and time to pass thru passport control. That can take and hour or more. The trip into the city will take 35 minutes plus the time to find the RER station , buy your ticket and wait for a train. The trip to the city and back will therefore absorb about 1.5 hours. You are required to be at the airport 2 hours before your flight.
At best, you can take the RER to the St. Michel stop. Take a look at Notre Dame, have a glass of wine in a cafe, and then head back.
