just ok, not excellent.

Tour was good, not excellent. This is only a outdoor tour, you do not get into anything. You will need to visit the sites again if you want to see the inside. Honestly, if one were to do a little research at home with google maps, you could do the same tour on your own for free. Had I known this, I would have skipped this tour and done it myself. The price is very steep for this outdoor only tour.

The PERFECT Paris half-day tour – don’t miss this!

This half-day walking tour was absolutely brilliant and one of the highlights of our time in Paris. If you want to see the city, understand it, and have fun doing it — this is the tour. Our guide was hilarious, super knowledgeable, and made everyone feel welcome from the first minute. No boring history, just great stories, laughs, and insider tips. And the Arc du Triomphe tickets were the cherry on top — skipping the stress and going up for those views was unforgettable. Everything was well organised, relaxed, and flowed perfectly. Time flew by, we laughed a lot, and left with amazing memories (and photos!). Fun, clear, well paced, and genuinely unforgettable. Book this tour — you’ll thank yourself later.

A must do while in Paris.

Our tour guide Alex met us at the appointed location promptly. Alex was pleasant and extremely knowledgeable of Paris and its history. She navigated our group through the Metro effortlessly. We learned so much about the different districts and even sang us a popular French ballad. We highly recommend this tour. Scott and Maggie November 2025

Good introduction to Paris

This is a good introduction to Paris for a first time visitor. You will "see" all the popular or important sights. Our guide, Guy, was engaging, funny and informative- very happy with his style and vibe. He also kept us at a good pace, with only one 20 min stop for a snack and bathroom break. I appreciate this because a 5 hour tour that spends two hours constantly stopping for restroom and lunch and shopping is not what I signed up for - so excellent on that point. You will see a lot of things, you will do a lot of walking. A LOT OF WALKING. Be prepaired for that. You will also become more familiar and comfortable navigating the Paris metro. You will not, however, enter any of the stops, so this is the downside. This tour is strictly "pass by". I guess that I imagined we might enter some buildings. The itinerary list stating "admission included" implies you will enter the buildings. But, I now realize that the time does not allow for this. That said, you will get a full five hours of sightseeing with guided commentary. So, all in all, I would recommend for someone with only one day in Paris who want to say they saw everything or for first time visitor on the first day who wants a taste of the city to decide what and where they want to explore in more depth later.

Fabulous way to see Paris

Wow!! What a wonderful tour! We were short on time so this was a fabulous way to see all of the highlights of Paris! It ended up just being us on the tour so that was nice! Our guide, Juliana was ABSOLUTELY LOVELY!! She was a wealth of knowledge and it was like walking around with a friend who knew everything about the city! I highly recommend this tour and Juliana!! It was nice to do this our first day to get a lay of the land and to have someone explain the metro, that was invaluable!!
