The experience was wonderful; the transfer and pickup were punctual. The bus was absolutely comfortable. Not to mention the people who supported the excursion — very warm and friendly, they spoke several languages, which allowed us to communicate easily and enjoy the experience.

The transfer went very smoothly and was hassle-free. Unfortunately, a wait time of about 30 minutes between check-in and arrival had been factored in from the start, so we essentially paid for that 30-minute wait.

Well, it was easy to find where the bus was waiting at the Eiffel Tower. We did end up at a different spot near the Eiffel Tower, though, so it took a bit of searching to find the metro. The day went well—we had enough time to visit the castle. Highly recommended
