Traveler reviews
Perfect One-Day Paris Experience with an Amazing Guide 🇫🇷✨
We had a wonderful one-day tour in Paris — everything was well organized, interesting, and full of great impressions. It was the perfect way to see and feel the beauty and atmosphere of the city in such a short time. A special thank you to our guide Anna 😊 She is amazing, very friendly, and has a fantastic sense of humor. Anna made the excursion easy, fun, and truly memorable with her engaging stories and positive energy. Thanks to her, our trip to Paris became even more special. Highly recommended ❤️
Anna is a fabulous guide!
Anna was the best host with a dynamic and fun personality! She was also efficient and super organized and everything was scheduled perfectly. I highly recommend this tour!
If you was a quick trip
Our bus driver did a great job. Navigating Paris roads driving a bus along the small streets. David, our tour guide, was fantastic! He gave us a lot of info. The 5 stars belong to them. This tour is fine if you just want a very quick trip. And if so, then this is 5 stars. I need more time, so next time I'll do a round trip via the train and stay a couple of days in Paris. I wasn't impressed with the food at the Eiffiel Tower, but the tower was a wonderful treat. Now for my part, I left my phone on airplane mode and didn't realize it wasn't registering real time. So, I was almost 15 mins late at the meet point. Another 5 stars for them NOT leaving me.
60th Birthday in Paris!!!
I can’t begin to rave about this experience. I actually went to Paris with the tour group on my 60th birthday!!! It all began with a trip on the EuroStar through the Chunnel from London to Paris…David was our Tour Guide and Fabien was the Coach driver once we arrived in Paris…David shared a wealth of knowledge and insights about the city of Paris…Claude made sure to drive us pass every memorable sight that I could only imagine… but the best thing was having a 60th Birthday lunch at the Eiffel Tower at the Madame Brasserie restaurant… I received the surprise of my life when David arranged with the wait staff to serenade me with a chorus of “Happy Birthday”… a perfect end to the day was a cruise along the River Seine…a Birthday I will Never Forget!!!
Super
