4.00In our case my partners has mobility issues and this tour was perfect for him. You see all the sights from the bus or on the boat from the river. We had a very good lunch at the Eifel Tower. If you want to shop or go to the Louve. Don't go on the boat ride or have lunch. Your tour guide will tell you where to meet at the end of the day to get on the tour bus and back to the train station.

4.00Nice way to see the city if you have limited time. Needs more free time to explore. I would rather take the 8pm train back and have another hour to walk around. Tour guide was ok. I’ve had better and I’ve had worse. We did plus class in the train. Seats are really comfy. Food on the train was ok and the train stewards were very nice. Eiffel Tower lunch was nice experience. Met the other families a bit more as you share a table. That was nice. Overall I would do it again but want you to know the pros and cons.
Well worth taking this trip!

5.00We took the Eurostar from London to Paris for a day trip; the entire trip was about 14 hours but it didn’t seem that long. After arriving in Paris, we had a bus tour of some of the city’s highlights and then a cruise on the Seine. After lunch at the Eiffel Tower (Madame Brasserie-it was outstanding!) we had some time at the Louvre-not to go inside but to shop. Our guide, Anna, was very personable and energetic. Her fun way of telling stories and sharing information made the day. We would definitely book with this company again.
One memorable day!!

5.00Anna was an exceptional guide! She was super knowledgeable, funny, and took care of the whole group! We absolutely loved her.
Unfortunately unnecessary causing us anxiety.

1.00Anna was amazing. Your was good too. However we missed the bus at the Eiffel Tower. When a colleague of Anna over the phone told us we could not possibly make it to the Louvre to catch up to the bus causing us tremendous anxiety. We took a cab and made it there with 30 minutes to spare. Instead of reassuring us you caused us great anxiety. THIS WAS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.
