No show host on a 4.6 overall review tour

Our host no showed. No call, no message, nothing. When we tried to contact them, it went straight to voicemail. Not a good experience for our only day in Paris. We did get a full refund but we missed the experience.

Great experience

We had a great Experience overall. Thanks to Johan. She was very insightful and charismatic. We learnt a lot. The highlight was the Seine review cruise. We missed the earlier bit so we took the evening cruise and it was the best choice.

Great intro to Paris

Obviously it’s impossible to cover all of this in a day but it was a great expose into Paris. Our guide was knowledgeable, accommodating and helpful. One thing to note is that the guide doesn’t join you on the Seine cruise which is the last part so make sure they at least help you get on because our tickets apparently didn’t work after 5:45pm but it doesn’t say that anywhere. Make sure they help you get on so they can resolve any issues including if your tour goes past that time. The tour was lovely but for the price it seems overpriced for what you actually get.

Operator response

Thank you for your review and for joining us on the tour! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed your guide and the overall experience. Just to clarify: your guide accompanies you throughout the day and then escorts you to the Seine cruise to ensure you’re checked in smoothly. The river cruise is then led by an another guide onboard. Regarding the cruise tickets, they’re actually valid for up to a year, so it’s unusual that you were told they didn’t work after 5:45 PM. We’ll definitely look into this with our team to prevent it from happening again. Thank you for bringing it to our attention, and we hope to welcome you back to Paris in the future! 🇫🇷

Disappointing

The tour excluded tickets to the Eiffel Tower which was primarily the reason we booked this tour. We were not informed of this prior to going on the tour. We have also not been compensated or have any monies returned to us. We had to pay 36e a piece and wait on long line for what was called a skip the line tour!

Operator response

Thank you for sharing your feedback. As described in the listing, it features views of the Eiffel Tower from the Seine River cruise rather than access to the tower itself. This is noted in the “What’s Included” section and under “What To Expect” on the booking page. We encourage all guests to review the tour details before booking to ensure it matches what they’re looking for. If you have questions about your reservation or need further information, please feel free to get in touch with us directly

Good tour but we missed out Eiffel Tower experience

Our guide Kritika was full of knowledge and helped us navigate the pubic holiday crowds very well. We saw most of what we hoped with her guidance and she catered to our needs where possible. We booked this tour to incorporate entry to Eiffle Tower. Despite great weather, (and maybe because of the public holiday) we weren’t given our Eiffel tower tickets and only found this out when we met our guide. As we were only in Paris for 1 day we missed the opportunity that I had expected- put simply despite the tour promoting entrance to the Eiffel Tower, our experience shows it may not happen with no notice given. I expected more given the high price of this tour.

Operator response

Hi There! Thank you for your kind feedback about Kritika. We’re so pleased she was able to guide you smoothly through the busy holiday. We’re very sorry about the Eiffel Tower ticket issue. Tickets had been secured in advance, but they were unexpectedly cancelled by the Eiffel Tower provider shortly before your tour. This was unfortunately beyond our control, and we understand how disappointing it was, especially with only one day in Paris. A refund for the ticket portion has already been processed. We truly appreciate your understanding and hope to host you again in the future.

Guide no showed/couldn't be contacted

No one showed up to the meeting location. The phone number listed to contact on trip advisor/viator is disconnected. Neither we or viator customer service could get in touch.

Operator response

Hi There! Thank you for your message, and I’m very sorry for the inconvenience and confusion surrounding your experience. We had sent an email to viator prior to your scheduled tour to inform you that the assigned guide had unexpectedly fallen ill and to offer a reschedule. We’re sorry if this communication didn’t reach you in time. We also understand how frustrating it must have been not to be able to reach us by phone. Please note our call center operates Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM (Uk time), and we’re currently working with Viator to correct the phone number listed on their site. A full refund has already been processed via Viator, and we truly appreciate your understanding. If you return to the area in the future, we’d love the chance to host you properly. Kind regards, The Expat Tours
