Best day trip!

This was the best experience! We flew to London and decided to do a day trip to Paris. Our guide, Matthew was very knowledgeable about all the places we visited. It was a long hot day but getting to see all these places in one day was unforgettable. We were able to see Notre Dame, Eiffel Tower and the Louvre. We even had time to eat at a cute little French restaurant after the Eiffel Tower. Definitely a day to remember!

Excellent guides, friendly and very informative

Both the tour guides were very excellent and was able to handle the group that signed up in several different ways

Guide was wonderful, tour just ok

Yes you get on and off Eurostar easy. It was good since it was my first time. However, all you r getting is paid entrance into sites, you still have to stand in line. Since guide doesn't go into sites with you, you r left on your own to figure things out. If you've NEVER been to Paris, then ok..but if you've ever been, figure out another way to see sites. But Guide themselves was wonderful person

Hurry up and wait

Started with tour rep being 25 minutes late to meet at Eurostar. Checked us off his list then just told us where to go and left us to our own devices. Tour guide meeting us at train station in paris went well, but bus was late to pick us up. Because of heat wave 2 of the 3 stops were closed, not tour guides fault. Tour guide Carlos was excellent though. Long wait for train - got back around 6 pm but train reservation wasn’t until 9. Nowhere to sit, no one assisting us with process. Overall pretty disappointed. Even if heat hadn’t caused closures we were so far behind and kept having to wait to go from one place to the next that we never would have made it to them all. Delays resulting from tour company issues took up quite a bit of our time.

Pierre was fabulous! He...

Pierre was fabulous! He was easy to keep up with, informative about the areas we traveled, accommodating when we needed rest time and ensured the schedule established was maintained to allow for meal breaks and timely arrival for the return trip. Highly recommend this tour!
