Wonderful, beautiful and easy afternoon!

Great car and the driver Chris was so nice and knowledgeable. We skipped the boat line and he was right there to pick us up. So easy. We stopped at MonMarte and had 45 mi items to explore. Wonderful afternoon.

Disappointed

Most memorable parts were being in a cramped van, squeezing two people alongside the driver, rather than the advertised luxury vehicle with a panoramic roof. Pick up point was moved by the operator from the Gard du Nord station to the Arc de Triumph which required the four couples (customers) to take a subway 11 stops, not easy when there was no assistance in how to get from the Eurostar to the required subway. After stopping numerous times to ask for help and a very long walk we arrived at an elevated train station which no one explained to us as we continued looking for a subway platform. After meeting the van and cramming into it our first stop was the Seine boat ride, waited a half hour for the boat and after the hour ride back and forth, time spent boarding and exiting, we were nearly two hours into our tour. The guide was knowledgeable pointing things out but never slowed or stopped to enable a photo from the van. No sound system in the van so I did not hear much sitting in the middle of the back row and wasn’t able to take a photo from my seat anyway. The only stop made was the final one at Mont Marte and were given ample time there. We were then dropped off at Gard du Nord to end the tour but for some reason couldn’t start there. We have used Viator previously and this was the first time we we’re very disappointed and felt was not worth the price paid.

Your feedback regarding transportation, pick-up arrangements, and comfort has been carefully noted and shared with our team for improvement. We are glad you appreciated the guide’s knowledge, and we regret that the rest of the service did not meet your expectations. Kind regards,

Tour de Paris

I recommend Fred 100%, because I have never seen such a smart, friendly and professional guide. We had a great pleasure to go around Paris with a guide who takes his time to explain everything with every detail. The car is clean and comfortable. Fred adapts to any situation and has been patient. I advise all tricks with Fred.
