Review of the Paris to Giverny half-day trip, with Monet’s house and gardens, coach transport, guide options, timing, crowds, and value.
“wonderful day out your buses and guide was excellent.”
Review of the half-day Giverny tour from Paris, with Monet’s house, water-lily pond, coach transport, guide options, tips, and crowd advice.
“Date and time of half day tour was August 13 at 2:30 pm. The guide did not share any information about history of Monet's house. She advised that if we didn't make it back to the bus on time, plan two was that we can take a train back on our own. Now, what tour operator does that? In my opinion they are responsible for keeping track of ALL tourists and making sure tourists they return to the bus, and not depart until all tourists are accounted for. On the return ride, she said she hoped we enjoyed our visit. As well, she suggested not to eat at restaurants near…”

Review of the Louvre timed ticket with audio guide, covering entry, artworks, price, practical tips, drawbacks, and who should book.
“Once booked we received tickets via what’s app on the day from Aman ( thankyou ) joined timed queue and were in within 20mins. Can’t fault the pre book option as the “ on the day “ queue was huge and I mean huuuuge so would totally recommend the way we booked via gyg as we were prioritised entry to the extent that they cordoned off the day queue to ensure all the people in the timed queue got in on time! Awesome experience and totally recommend booking this way and Louvre experience was brilliant”

“Sad to write a poor review on such a magnificent site! It is truly a must see As far as our experience with the group… that is where the 2 stars come This was our first visit to Versailles. There was no explanation as to how to use the audio … we were having trouble downloading … and it was up to us to figure it out… very frustrating. We were given a time to meet the bus for the the return trip back… when we arrived back to the meeting spot at the correct time the bus was driving away without us… there were several other groups that missed…”
Review of the Giverny and Monet house tour from Paris, with gardens, transport, audio app, timing, crowds, costs, and practical tips.
“The gardens were beautiful. The site was lovely. The ‘sortie’ signs were not clear; the guide gave the wrong description of the bus for returning purposes;; bus was NOT in the parking area when we retuned nor were we told that the bus would be leaving the parking area while we toured gardens. Very disconcerting to find that upon returning to the parking lot out tour bus was no where to be seen.”

Review of ParisCityVision’s 3-hour Paris bus tour and Seine cruise, with audio guides, Eiffel Tower views, value advice, and practical tips.
“Se supone que era un tour por la ciudad por los lugares más importantes, pero tenían una actividad en el Moulin Rouge, entonces después de que se bajaron los de la actividad, se olvidaron de los que quedamos en el tour y ya no continuaron con la actividad, se pasaron la mitad de los monumentos. No les recomiendo que hagan el último tour porque ya se quieren ir seguramente. Además pagué por el crucero en el Río Siena y dijeron que no tenían espacio para hoy y me dijeron que fuera de nuevo otro día, y era mi último día en paris. Tuve una pésima experiencia en general.”
Review of the Toulouse to Carcassonne coach trip, with castle access, audio guides, practical tips, value advice, and honest drawbacks.
“The tour only includes ticket for the bus ride and entrance to the chateau. Would recommend the bus driver put a sign in the window stating he is the Viator Tour Bus as there was another red bus at the pick up in Carcassonne and several people got on the wrong bus. Lovely day exploring the Chateau and the old city.”
