What a lovely experience with Benjamin and his beautiful car! He is so knowledgeable about all of the landmarks and the history of Paris. We learned a great deal and saw so many of the sites we had seen in books and even a few we had NOT. The car itself was a site to see and very comfortable. It attracted admirers wherever we went. He even dropped us off at the end where we needed to go next to save us the taxi cost from our hotel. I highly recommend Benjamin.
The Tour was an very Good Expirience , The Car was very beautiful and we make a lot of Pictures from the Car it was Great
This was such a fun and unique experience. Our driver was extremely knowledgeable on Paris and made our experience very memorable.
Benjamin did an excellent job of giving us a night tour of the city. He had great historical information and explained so much about the city that we didn’t know. We saw so much in the two hour timeframe and we ended up at the Eiffel Tower, just in time to see the twinkling lights. It was a wonderful experience
What a fun tour. We lucked out - max capacity was 4 but it ended up being just my husband and me, so a true private tour. The car is open-top so naturally, with my luck, it rained on and off (mostly on) but it didn't even matter. The access, views and intimacy of the whole experience was fantastic. Benjamin was jovial, engaging, knowledgeable and a great driver (sure, he's local, but that Place de l'Etoile/Arc de Triomphe traffic circle is no joke)! Seeing the expanse of Paris from just outside the basilica at Montmartre was well worth it. Definitely recommend this tour! You'll feel like a celebrity but sorry; it's really the car everyone is staring at and admiring LOL!
Hi Nicole, Thanks you very much for your review Was very nice to meet you guys
Great experience seeing many sights of Paris more intimately than from a tour bus. Personal descriptions by the driver were great. Driver offered many photo opportunities. Best part for us was riding in an iconic automobile that’s in excellent condition, and the non-stop attention of bystanders admiring this beautiful vintage car.
Hello Thanks you very much for your kind review Was very nice to meet you
Benjamin was the perfect host in his vintage Citroen car. He showed us Montmartre and Sacre Coeur and explained French history and architecture along the way. The views over the city from Sacre Coeur were wonderful. My son and husband loved the open roof of the car and the weather was perfect for our drive. Though the traffic in Paris is intense Benjamin navigated through it while keeping a commentary on what we were viewing. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Benjamin and would do another tour of the city with him when we next visit.
Hi Melody, thanks you very much for your review ! Im glad you spent a good time. Hoping to see you next time !
Benjamin was amazing and the car is so chic and stylish, not to mention comfortable! Everyone we passed throughout the streets of Paris was so excited to see us pass and many people took pictures as we passed by. We felt like celebrities! This was definitely an insider’s tour of Paris in that we saw many areas we could not have found on our own. We had just the right amount of stops where we got to get out of the car and spend 5-10 mins seeing a view and taking a photo. Definitely a 5 star experience. Benjamin is adorable and informative and casual and easy to be with. You will love it!
Hi Kelley! Thanks you very much for your reviews! Was a pleasure to do this tour with you guys
Truly the best way to catch the highlights and familiarize yourself and family with Paris. We chose to do this right after we arrived, a perfect start to our trip- hearing some history and current events, recommendations and advice really set us up for a wonderful time in this amazing city. The car itself is such a unique experience, our kids loved it too! Thank you for a fantastic first glimpse at your beautiful city.
Hi Sue, it was a pleasure to do this tour with you! Thanks a lot
Fantastic evening tour with Classic 60’s Paris Tours earlier this month. We booked the 2-hour Secrets of Paris Tour on May 1st (public holiday) with Benjamin in his classic Citröen DS. We arranged pick up/drop off online when booking, and Benjamin was on time and politely texted when he was on his way. The weather was clear and warm enough to enjoy the open roof. Expect lots of head nods and thumbs-ups from men on the street and others as you pass by or when stopped at traffic lights. The beautiful car is stylish and very comfortable, and my husband loved taking to Benjamin about the car. We’ve been to Paris before, but this was a wonderful and new private tour experience. We won’t reveal all the secrets, but we enjoyed seeing some Paris highlights we had never visited before. The drive up to Sacré Coeur was memorable, and we really enjoyed seeing the city sites getting ready for the 2024 Olympic Summer Games at street level after seeing some of the venues from the top level of the Eiffel Tower the previous day. Benjamin was an excellent guide, and the experience was well worth it.
Hello ! Thanks you very much for your very kind review. Was really nice to meet you. All the best
