Great tour. Highly recommended. It takes you to all the major sights. Too bad it doesn't go to Pigalle. The cruise on the Seine is very nice. You can only board at Pier 3 near the Eiffel Tower, and there are no other stops.

We really enjoyed it—very professional and attentive. We took the bus and the boat. The 24-hour pass was excellent and very reasonably priced. We’d definitely do it again—the bus was very convenient and the explanations were helpful... there were a few less explanations on the boat, but overall it was great.

Ease of getting on and off just made it simple. You need 48 hours probably but we tried to do as much as possible in 1 day. The cruise was so simple and the Arc de Triomphe tickets were simple to use. Many thanks.

The tour suited us ideally for our time in Paris. Fortunately we were able to walk to stop 10 which made it very ease for us. The river cruise was a very nice addition

The bus was a smooth ride, the driver wasn't all crazy driving. We learned a lot on the route, but could have pointed out more buildings to know the history of etc.
