Anna, my tour guide made the trip most memorable. She was very knowledgeable, informative but most importantly brought the right amount of humor. It was like hanging out with an old friend.

I’m not sure what happened and I do believe the website is a bit confusing and tricky but someone I missed getting the lunch at the Eiffel Tower which we wanted. So that part sucked but when we got on the train I let Anna know and she was able to get that fixed up for me. The tour itself was great, Anna our tour guide was absolutely amazing. She was nice, funny, knowledgeable and honestly by the time the tour was over I felt like I made a new friend. It was technically a long day but it was a great way to do a little bit of everything and get back to London without feeling rushed.
Absolutely wonderful experience

Just finished a tour with Anna from Premium Tours and it was wonderful. She was organized, friendly, and knew all the best spots for photos. She made the logistics of visiting the Eiffel Tower so much easier than doing it on our own. Highly recommended! 5 stars.
