5.00An absolutely organized and easy way to explore Paris for the day! As long as you are a punctual person, everything was smooth and ready to go. Our tour guide, Anna was so kind and knowledgeable! The river cruise was a great way to see all the landmarks. The Eiffel Tower lunch was so delish with a 3 course meal. We had a decent amount of independent time to take pictures near the Eiffel Tower. Highly recommend!!!

5.00Just gives you a “taste” of Paris and therefore do not expect to stop at sites.. Lunch on the Eiffel Tower is definitely worth the added option. Was a great day trip from London. Our guide was very entertaining, although I do not recall his name =( but really enjoyed him guiding our travel.

5.00Anna was great! Super informative and friendly. I only wish the trip was longer, but a good chunk of the time was on the train. She showed us the highlights. I would recommend this trip.

Great guide— miserable trip to Paris

- Review from Viator
4.00Princess Anna did a great job. Knowledgeable and funny. Kept us together, organized, and basically on time. The only reason not a higher rating was a 2+ hr delay for the return train. Hottest day of the year, packed into the station like sardines…. No air conditioning, fans, etc. The delay was a miserable experience. Anna did her best for us (acquired water bottles, cheated us up in line to try to get seating for part of the wait, etc). So, great guide, but if they can’t figure out air conditioning by 2026, I don’t see any reason to return to Paris.
