No tour guide. Just audio you must download to your phone.

I had no idea from the description that this was just an audio tape that I was supposed to download onto my phone. So I went to the physical location to locate the guide. I waited and waited and waited but there was nobody there. I sent a message asking for help and almost four hours later the company replied telling me there was no actual tour guide. By then it was after 4pm and it was too late for me to do the tour. $50 to download audio with no actual tour guide? Who would have thought? I asked for my money back since I didn’t realize there was no tour guide and I never downloaded the audio, and was leaving Paris the next morning so couldn’t take the tour. Viator thus far has not refunded me the money.

Did the Instagram tour and the Père Lachaise tour a while ago and I really enjoyed them! This is such a cool audio guide concept, just like a podcast with two experts guiding you as you walk. Highly recommend these tours!
