Description

Paris has so much to offer it’s worth seeing it three ways: In the air, on the road and on water! This four-hour tour is the perfect intro to the city of "l’Amour", and will no doubt be the start of your own personal love story with Paris. The city tour will show you the best of the city from our open deck bus for an hour tour. Then embark on a cruise along the Seine, under its many bridges, before scaling the heights of the Grande Dame (the Eiffel Tower to you and me!) taking in the magnificent views from her second floor. Some days the tour starts with the Eiffel Tower.

Unclear tour details

Enjoyed the Eiffel Tower portion & the river cruise. Bus tour was to start near the tower at 10 which meant finding a taxi at 11 back to hotel by midnight so we skipped it. The meeting point was near impossible to find & everyone was late to tour. Finally met guide with tickets by tower entrance an hour late. There really was no guide just tickets for the 3 events. The no guide part was not clear to us when we booked tour.

No live guide- had to scan a qr code and use our phone. None if our group could get the guide to work. Extremely disappointed

Very unsatisfactory

Not worth the price. Would have been one-third of Viator’s price had we booked the “guided” tour separately as it really wasn’t a guided tour but an employed person showing us the route to take. We were not given a guided tour but only led to where we were to go on the Eiffel Tower, take the bus and the boat. Waiting in long lines was not what we had paid for and taking an old city bus on wodden benches, in the heat with no audio system working. Taking the boat on the Seine was again a very long and hot wait in line to again no audio. Terribly disappointed with the whole experience and would NOT RECOMMEND your company to my worst enemy.

Operator response

Dear Annie, Thank you for you comment. We are sorry that your experience with us was not satisfactory. However, we would like to point out that the voucher clearly states that this tour is not guided and that it is conducted with an audio guide. Our agent’s role is to inform our customers about how this tour operates. Regarding the queues, please note that any delays at the monument are not under our control, as they depend on the venue itself. As for the boat, we regret the waiting time and the heat you experienced, but unfortunately this is also beyond our control, especially the weather conditions. Kind regards, Extime Travel (formerly Paris City Vision)

Do NOT book this “tour”

The tour was sold as a 4-hour guided experience that included: Eiffel Tower visit Sightseeing/bus tour of Paris Seine River cruise However, when we arrived at the meeting point, the guide only handed us Eiffel Tower tickets and separate cruise tickets. When I specifically asked about the advertised bus/sightseeing portion of the tour, the guide informed me that he “did not know about it,” that it was not part of his tour, and that if we wanted the bus tour we would need to do it the following day and contact Viator directly. As a result, we did not receive the 4-hour guided sightseeing experience that was advertised and purchased. There was no guided city tour provided. The experience was essentially just ticket distribution for separate attractions rather than the comprehensive tour described in the listing. The listing is misleading because it presents the experience as an organized 4-hour combined tour, when in reality we were simply given tickets to use independently.

Operator response

Dear Robert, Thank you for your message. We sincerely regret that the experience did not meet your expectations. We understand your concern, but we would like to clarify that this tour is not misleading, and the services advertised are provided as described. However, we will review what happened in order to better understand the situation and prevent any similar confusion in the future. We truly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve the quality and clarity of our experiences. Kind regards, Extime Travel (formerly Paris City Vision)

We don’t recommend this poorly handled tour at all!!

Very poorly organized mostly directed to a Spanish audience even though the guide did what he could to also repeat information in English for us & was available briefly on the Eiffel Tower’s second level, shortly thereafter he just disappeared unexpectedly. On the bus ride portion we only had unreliable audio if we had working internet on our mobile phones. The timing of that speaking didn’t always match where we were located. Also the windows in the bus were filthy dirty leaving many of our photos marred by dirt and a VERY LARGE bird poop!! The other passengers were also talking quite loudly despite our requests that they be quiet as they were preventing us from clearly hearing the audio when it did work. The boat ride along the Seine was relatively nice & informative but again somewhat compromised by a less than perfect audio system. We even had to sit & wait for 10 minutes on the bus to accommodate another group who were being picked up toward the end of the tour delaying our trip to the boat ride. WE WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS TOUR TO ANYONE!!

Operator response

Dear Deborah, Thank you for you comment. We sincerely regret the inconvenience you experienced during the journey. The comfort of our passengers and the tours' organization are our priority, so we will forward your comments to the relevant department so that the issues raised can be reviewed and to help ensure that situations like this do not happen again. We truly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us to continuously improve our service. We hope to see you again. Kind regards, Paris City Vision

TBH- I didn't look at...

TBH- I didn't look at tour description clearly. Entrance to tower is timed, then you're on your own. We did this the day we arrived so that by the time we were done with the tower, we were too tired for cruise or bus tour. We were able to use ticket need morning for cruise. It was OK. I was not able to pair my phone with the audio commentary. Boat went as far as Notre Dame before turning around. I never utilized bus segment.

Operator response

Dear Kristin, Thank you very much for your comment. We’re sorry that the organization was not entirely clear and that you were not able to take full advantage of all parts of the tour as expected. We take note of your comments regarding the audio guide and the itinerary in order to improve the information we provide to our customers. We’re glad to hear that you were able to enjoy the cruise the following day. We hope to be able to offer you a better experience in the future. Kind regards, Paris City Vision
