Excellent experience with great audio guide

C Ross

This was amazing to see Paris and hear the history of the city, the audio guide is fantastic and available in lots of languages. The staff in the office were so helpful. We visited on the afternoon of Saturday 10th Octobet and the young nan working could not have been more helpful, he is a credit to the company. Would definitely recomnend this tour

Easy

Travellers

It was an easy process, we had no issues. Great way to get around and see some of the major sights.

Yes, I recommend this attraction

No help

Marian

We got lost and could not find the meeting point. Despite arriving at the Eifel Tower at 11:15 I tried live chat but could not get assistance I tried emailing but no response. A complete waste of time for us and we travelled from Vincennes. 🙈

Está bien para dar una vuelta

sara

está bien para situarte en la ciudad y dar una vuelta completa, ya que pasa por todos los puntos turísticos importantes. pero no creo que merezca la pena el hop-on y hop-off, hay mejores formas de transporte entre puntos turísticos.

Yes, I recommend this attraction

FUN and CONVENIENT

Bing926

Fun way to see Paris without walking. Convenient stops close to the attractions are awesome.

Big Bus Tour

Amazing opera house

Very slow, crowded, not too friendly driver. Will not use the bus again.
