Versailles in May
Lili our tour guide was great , but the guided tour only lasted 2 hours, which was not nearly enough time, though Lili covered quite a bit talking quite quickly. Then we were left with 3 hours until the bus left for Giverney. It was very crowded and somewhat complicated to navigate. The cafe’s and snack bars had enormous lines. It was rainy, windy, and cold so visiting the gardens was not appealing. On a nice day you could roam for hours - and there were several outdoor cafe’s. There is a mini train that circles with 3 stops - on and off at will , but you need to get a ticket from the one booth that is not right next to the train station, and there is no guiding or explanation from the driver - and it is a very bumpy ride. You can also rent a golf cart for €48. That fits 4, and many people seemed to take that option. If you are there on a sunny day I would suggest that; as you can peruse at your own pace and cover the entire area. Overall it is worth the visit, but be prepared for crowds - and I was there mid May - not the height of tourist season,

Creative experience
This was a great experience, although the queues were very long, so I’d definitely recommend buying a “skip the queue” ticket. The gardens were outstanding — full of colour and variety. While the house contained mostly copies, it still gave a wonderful impression of Claude Monet’s work and atmosphere Our guides Michelle and Angela were very enthusiastic

This is a nice tour. You get a concise tour of Vatican museums, Sistine chapel and St. Peter’s basilica. Tour guide spoke a little fast so was hard to understand in parts, asking her to speak little slowly would be good. She did awesome job of managing the group, gave us a lot of history about 3 museums that we visited. Did a good job explaining Sistine chapel, its beautiful ceilings. Recommend this tour.

Great day trip!
We really enjoyed this day trip!! We actually originally booked the Pompeii day trip with lunch, but when it was cancelled the day before, CityWonders offered to put us on this tour as an alternative! We were hesitant as it seemed to be a lot for one day- but we are so happy we did it! Marius was an incredible guide and kept us all so entertained on the drive to and from. You’re given around 2 hours of free time in sorrento which was enough to see the main sight and grab a great lunch! Our guide in Pompeii was also so engaging and funny and made our time there so meaningful. I would recommend this tour if you want a taste of the coast!

D-Day Tour Delivers on a Bucket List Experience
We really appreciated this tour of Normandy as balance it provided to taking in big city sights in both Paris and London. It was a long day, but worth it for the reflection and pride that it stirred as an American. The impact that the pivotal D-Day invasion of France certainly changed the world in 1944 and the brave patriots from the US, England and France are better appreciated having stood on the grounds. Maja was a super guide for our tour, sharing her historical knowledge of the event and kindly guiding tour participants to efficiently navigate the day. Highly recommended and worth the price.

His than was very knowledgeable!!! He had a lot of information that made us think about what we were seeing. The meeting point directions should be clearer.

Amazing experience to see Tuscany and Montepulciano through this Viator tour
The whole experience was amazing. The tour guide (Viviana) was very knowledgeable and professional. Her engaging stories and historical insights made the experience very special. The scenery along the way is so beautiful. The wine tasting inside a historic cellar was one of the highlights of the day. And the lunch was equally unforgettable, with fresh pasta, local cheeses, olive oil and perfectly paired wines enjoyed in the heart of the countryside. I highly recommend this tour!

Fantastic tour!!!!!
What a wonderful way to experience the essence of D-Day! Great organization throughout the day. Raymond, our superb guide, provided interesting information along the drive to Normandy, which was in a very plush coach. His info regarding the back history leading up to WW2 really added to the experience. Fine lunch with three options (I chose the cod, caught fresh outside the coastal town. Delicious. The tour through the visit points was excellent. Never felt rushed. Plenty of time on both beaches and Pointe du Hoc., the Utah Beach and the American Cemetary, which was so very moving. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough!!!!!

Overall, a very good job...
Overall, a very good job with some good history of Florence. Would preferred a little bit more history and less of the guides chitchat, but I understand that it is necessary to time the excursion so that the visit to the museum is at the proper time for entrance. Very good explanations at the museum. And David is a site to behold and does not disappoint.

Loved the Colosseum, should have done the self guided audio tour.
This was an expensive tour that we needed to book only 2 days ahead since our original tour was cancelled. Then 1 day ahead this tour was modified to NOT include the arena floor which was originally part of our tour. That was disappointing. The quality of the headset was less than satisfactory along with the accent of our tour guide made it difficult to follow along with some of the explanations of the sites. The colosseum was extremely crowded and we lost communication several times as we (and several others) could not keep up with our guide. The entire area is beautiful but I think a self guided audio tour would have saved us a lot of money and we would have been able to follow along with a greater understanding of the areas.

Tour guide Mathide is excellent but the tour is not that great as advestised
First of all, this review has nothing to do with the tour guide Mathide, as she is an excellent tour guide for the 5-18-26 @ 2:30 pm English tour. She explained everythng in details with great patience. ny fmaily learned a lot. Nonetheless, the tour itself is not so great with the value in my opinion. We only visited one wing and with no ticket access, we would not be able to visit other wings as well. The meetng place has a lot of other tour group and can be challenging with lookng for city wonders flag. I would suggest the tour company to revise the tour and being able to visit some other wings as well.

Great way to start the day !
Chose well and did this tour at start of the day - worked well with less people around. Albert was an amazing guide who gave us the interesting background to the creation of this tranquil space. We had time to stop and photograph along the way

Magnificent Day at Giverny
The gardens and house were magnificent. My visit was in mid May with most flowers in full bloom. While there was a long line to enter the house, the weather was pleasant. The gardens and Lily Pond were wonderful to wander through. The house is not large, so not much time needed once you enter. There is quite a large gift shop, with several other shops on the property. I especially liked the shop selling quality linens - it is adjacent to a snack bar and restaurant. Beautiful tea towels made in France for €12. Also on the property is a Museum of Contemporary art , which I did not have time for . We entered at 4:10 and only had until 6pm. I could have spent an entire day there ! Our guide Anish was excellent, though he was only on the bus and to the entry., and at the end patiently waited and searched for the missing passengers - two people had found their way back to the bus - unbeknownst to anyone !You There were several groups from Viking Cruise Ships , and their guides did accompany them throughout. All in all it was fabulous - and if you like gardens I would suggest you could spend an entire day there with plenty of restaurants and shops

Disappointed
Got lost on the subway on the way to the meeting point and was late. The office lady who called told me the bus would not wait and hung up on me. I attempted to contact them to see if the bus stopped along the way so I could meet them and they didn't respond.

Our tour guide Hisam was very knowledgeable and he made everything about the tour interesting. We weren’t rushed. It was a fun, informative tour, a great way to see one of Rome’s most popular and important sites.
