Great Drive Through Paris - Avi was our driver and he was amazing! It was exactly what we were looking for, an informative drive throughout the city with stops to take pictures. We were only in town for a day, and could have never made it to each of these spots, many were just driving by, and he was up to suggestions, but we trusted him, and we were happy. Highly recommended for a drive through the city with a few photo opportunities.

Tailored Tour - Great way to get an overview of Paris at the beginning of our trip. Our driver was fluent in English and knew how to hit the highlights. He tailored the tour to our interests.

Paris in a nut shell - Driver knew his way around the city. Saw everything we wanted to. This is the only way to view and understand what Paris is all about Trip worth the $$$. Driver could have been more verbal. English was marginal. Still have him a good tip.. ..

I would not recommend this - I apologize if this is a repeat of what I’ve written before. I felt that your driver was unprepared for a four day. Sorry a four hour trip with us. If he’s a paid tour guide for your company, we expected a list of places he would recommend that we could go during the timeline. We did not know that he would not leave the city of Paris during our tour, nor did he recommend any places. As we passed by a church he’s going there’s a church blah blah blah, which we couldn’t see because a tree was in the way and he didn’t even attempt to stop for us to get a better look or pause. He did however, take us to the top of the hill where there was I believe it was Michelle. I’m not really sure which provided a wonderful view of the city . But then he didn’t say if you walk a little further up the hill you will get an unobstructed view of the Eiffel Tower. As we were leaving, we did see this and really almost had to order him to stop so we could get a few pictures. At three hours and 20 minutes into the tour, he proclaimed that the tour was finished because there was nothing else for us to see within his limits. I explained that we had him for four hours and he said nope that he was finished. And he dropped us off by the Eiffel Tower at our request so we could look around and take the river cruise. We had not taken the day before with another tour. Overall, it was a disappointment for our couple of days in Paris.

Great driving around town; needed more overview of city - While the travel around the city was very helpful, my family and I would have enjoyed more of a narrative and overview of the city, its culture and history. Having a driver to easily visit the areas of the city was great and highly recommended but we had hoped for more of a narrative from our driver.
