Very good guide and real nice small group. Hit all the high spots in Paris and fully enjoyed the whole day, both to and from Paris. My wife and I are now back in Canada but would use the tours again. The trip to Paris just wet our appetite.

This was amazing .. however, there was no lunch at the Eiffel Tower (which really wasn't a bad thing at all!) We had lunch at a local french bistro -- great food! The tour was just the right pace filled with a lot of things, but never rushed. I would recommend it highly -- if you only have a day to spend in this great city -- and wand to experience the Eurostar -- then this is the trip to take!

This tour had an early start, but the operator sent a taxi to take us to St Pancreas station. Immigration and customs at the station was a bit chaotic and time consuming, but the train ride was fine. Note: to purchase snacks from the dining carriage took ages! I thought my sister had disappeared off the train. Had been to Paris before, so stayed with group to go to Eiffel Tower, then we were on the hop on hop off bus. Spent time at Eiffel Tower, did the whole bus loop and spent time shopping at Galleries La Fayette, just amazing! Had a lovely lunch at Angelina's tea rooms. Tour guide organised a meeting point for all of us to meet and return to Paris station together. A long day and a late return into London. Plenty of taxis available just outside the station for transfers to London hotels.

Take this tour! It is a "taste" of Paris at most! But be prepared for a quick in and out! Our guide "Sammy" was very cordial and inviting. His demeanor exuded his love for the city. I had the feel that a personal 2 day tour with him would have been amazing! The pace is even keeled, a little swift, however. You do get to see the key points of Paris. I traveled solo and am not a lingerer so the time spent at each location was perfect for me. Eiffel tower is a landmark. Beautiful, but you go up and look out. The 45 minutes we were there was all that was needed. My vacation time was centered in London. This day trip to Paris inspired me to return to soak in more Parisian fare on a future trip! Well worth the cost!
