Everything was perfect: welcome, friendliness, driving!
The only hitch was the Trocadéro departure point. It says "à côté du musée de l'Homme" (next to the Musée de l'Homme) but, perhaps because of construction work, the pick-up point is opposite, on avenue du président Wilson. So we missed 3 buses! Fortunately, the 3rd driver made us understand to go the other way! Note that we were 2 slightly elderly women, unable to pick up the pace! Smiles.
That said, the rest was perfect!

Overall we liked everything except the length of time the bus was stopped at each stop. It can't be between 5 / 10 minutes standing at each stop. Not all customers get off at each stop. The circuit is not so wide that it takes almost two hours to do it. In my opinion it should have a larger fleet to offer a better service and cadence of buses.

A bus is great for getting an overview of the city and its sights. You remain super flexible. I personally didn't like the audio guide, too much music... I would have liked more information. The boat trip on the Seine was very nice. All in all it was a great day, everything just worked out, I would do it again and again.

Not much. I was expecting more thorough narration of what we were passing on the route. Also, a few more stops would be appropriate. For example, there was no stop at or near Les Invalides, where Napoleon is buried.

The bus tour was great we get on get off and see most of the masterpieces. The Eiffel tour was unorganized because of the tour guide and information given. I couldn't find the meeting point and I didn't understand why we meet up 15 mins away to the gate/enterance to the tower while every tour guides meeting at the gate. Even though I said I can't walk 15 mins away to the gate with my old mom with walking disabilities and waiting the group at the gate that we will up to the tower,the tour guide named I guess Artun from Qualium, was really impolite and did not interested at all. Nobody didn't hear him vos no headphones or nothing provided. he rushed out at the second floor, no pictures nothing, couldn't see around. at the peak again he couldnt organize the group. It was a chaos trying to rushing after him. It would be better for us if we didn't waited him 45 mins and up the tower by ourselves.

My two children liked the Hyperspace the best, as a mother I liked the roller coaster the best, where you went through the water once and the parades were great.
Unfortunately, we missed seeing more Disney characters close to the visitors. We only saw Donald and Daisy dancing. Otherwise they ran past with Watchmen. We were always sent away during the photo queues. That was disappointing.
The final show was great, but afterwards there was a mass rush for the exit, not well resolved. We got lost in the crowd and I fell over a high kerb that you overlook in the crowd. Definitely needs to be reconsidered with the routing of the crowd.

Had such an amazing time celebrating my girlfriend's 30th birthday! Even though it was raining on and off through out the day, the sheer magic and excitement prevented it from dampening our spirits. The majority of the rides both in the studios and the park took place inside, wich further prevented the rain from tarnishing the day. The snacks we ate, the rides we endured and the shows we gazed apon where all nothing short of spectacular! Thank you so much for making this birthday celebration one to remember!

It was amazing experience. Although I went on weekday, it was still crowded in the main park. I waited nearly an hour for each game. The highlighted were: Peter Pan, "it's a small world", Pirates of Carribean, Haunted Mansion. The last show with firework were fantastic. I recommend to stay until the last show around 10.40pm in the summer. Definitely come back next time

It says "à côté du musée de l'Homme" (next to the Musée de l'Homme) but, perhaps because of construction work, the pick-up point is opposite, on avenue du président Wilson. So we missed 3 buses! Fortunately, the 3rd driver made us understand to go the other way! Note that we were 2 slightly elderly women, unable to pick up the pace! Smiles. That said, the rest was perfect!

Bus came often, stopped at tourist spots, as told. There was someone to guide you at the pick up location. Seats are ok. Bus was easy to spot on the streets of Paris

Eiffel Tower tour was great. No issues with that and worth it. Hop On stop 7 did not exist despite being told by the support robot that it was. Had to walk to the next stop.

The Hop on Hoff bus was fine. When we finally got to the Eiffel Tower everything was fine too. However, they advertise the Eiffel Tower without queuing. This is a lie as the guide buys the tickets on site and we stood in line for 2 hours.

The bus driver left us sitting on the bus for 20 minutes and didn't say a word that he wasn't going any further. He simply aborted the bus journey. That's not acceptable at all. We were very disappointed and had to make a very long journey home with children. Compensation would be desirable here.

Had to stand, not enough seats and so no access to oral guide sockets. Need more buses!!! Should never have been admitted on the bus, no-one properly checking there were enough seats available upstairs, it was too late to get off again so had to stand on moving bus for first 3 stops, not easy when you're in 70s! Poor value in the circumstances and wouldnt recommend!

Easy to use and informative. I did the boat cruise plus the bus and would recommend doing both, seeing the city from both perspectives. I did make a mistake in assuming that the river cruise had two stops so missed my spot at Notre Dame, but other than that would recommend doing this.

We like to use a hop on hop off bus in an unknown city because we see more than walking and using public transport. Paris is a beautiful city, but there is a lot of preparation for the Olympic Games and some sights cannot be visited. Bus drivers were kindly and helpful and they drive very well. There was a problem with online buyed ticket but staff solved it in the Big Bus center.

In 2 days you got a good overview of the most important buildings in Paris. The entrance ticket to the Panthéon gave us new insights into French history. History. Note: Check the functioning of the connection points for the headphones. Twice they did not work.

Our initial bus did NOT take the designated route, he did not take us to the Arc de Triomphe. We stayed on the bus thinking he would do it on the next tour but he didnt and we had to get off at a traffic light and walk to the monument but noticed many more BIGBUS buses taking persons to the site, It totally ,essed up our schedule that day. It was a waste of my time and money. I would prefer to book other smaller cruises tho they are more expensive instead of lining up for more than an hour in sweltering heat being hoarded like cattle. Our tickets were not accepted by the Pantheon staff after walking uphill to the site and then had to take the train back to effiel because our bus was the last in the area. Please coordinate with the admissions persons at the door of the Pantheon as we were denied access and told the tickets were for a bus tour and not admission. We did inform the attendant at Effiel Tower site but tho sympathetic he was not helpful, we were informed that we can use the ticket anytime in the future but we were leaving the ext day and already had other things scheduled. I am very DISSATISFIED as this was my dream vacation and BIGBUS wasted valuable time and caused undue fustration from the very start. Two of the buses we used had no wifi, were old and not kept cleaned, litter were strewn on the floor, I would recommend intermittent cleaning of the bus as wel as bins placed on the bus, so fellow tourists can dispose of their litter. I WILL NOT Recommend anyone using this tour. Spend the the time visiting the sites yourself and reading or listening to the site's audiotour.

Seine river cruise is closed from 18th July 2024 to 26th July 2024 because of opening ceremony of Olympics which was not informed to me and I had taken the tickets with seine river cruise, rest all was definitely good about Big Bus, I just expect as I wasn't given access to seine river cruise, money charged for my seine river cruise should be refunded to me for both the passengers. Kindly do the needful and oblige. Thanks and regards, Vikas Garg

I bought a 48-hour ticket. It only printed a 24-hour ticket. I spent hours trying to get to stop 1 because no one could help me. The bus didn't stop twice to get to stop 1, which was very stressful for my elderly mother. It became a very unpleasant experience. Everyone questioned me and made me feel like I'd done the wrong thing when it was a technical problem. At stop 1, they tried to make it clear that I'd done the wrong thing when it clearly said 48 hours HOHO. not a great experience at all. A day spent trying to fix your technology.

Everything was perfect: welcome, friendliness, driving!
The only hitch was the Trocadéro departure point. It says "à côté du musée de l'Homme" (next to the Musée de l'Homme) but, perhaps because of construction work, the pick-up point is opposite, on avenue du président Wilson. So we missed 3 buses! Fortunately, the 3rd driver made us understand to go the other way! Note that we were 2 slightly elderly women, unable to pick up the pace! Smiles.
That said, the rest was perfect!

One of the most beautiful experiences in Paris was to see the Opera Garnier, a historic, imposing, lush and emotionally charged building.
The details of the construction are breathtaking and as soon as you step inside, your world changes.
The opera house is not just a place, it is a state of being.It transports you into a story and allows you to dream and imagine what it was like in ancient times...

Overall we liked everything except the length of time the bus was stopped at each stop. It can't be between 5 / 10 minutes standing at each stop. Not all customers get off at each stop. The circuit is not so wide that it takes almost two hours to do it. In my opinion it should have a larger fleet to offer a better service and cadence of buses.

The bus tour was great we get on get off and see most of the masterpieces. The Eiffel tour was unorganized because of the tour guide and information given. I couldn't find the meeting point and I didn't understand why we meet up 15 mins away to the gate/enterance to the tower while every tour guides meeting at the gate. Even though I said I can't walk 15 mins away to the gate with my old mom with walking disabilities and waiting the group at the gate that we will up to the tower,the tour guide named I guess Artun from Qualium, was really impolite and did not interested at all. Nobody didn't hear him vos no headphones or nothing provided. he rushed out at the second floor, no pictures nothing, couldn't see around. at the peak again he couldnt organize the group. It was a chaos trying to rushing after him. It would be better for us if we didn't waited him 45 mins and up the tower by ourselves.

Our family of three adults and five teenagers booked this on our Paris Stay in the end of July 2025. There is no tourguide but they have audio to listen to while driving around the city. The kids rrallly enjoyed experiencing the city in this manner versus walking or taking public transportation. The lines were not bad at all to get on.

A bus is great for getting an overview of the city and its sights. You remain super flexible. I personally didn't like the audio guide, too much music... I would have liked more information. The boat trip on the Seine was very nice. All in all it was a great day, everything just worked out, I would do it again and again.

The queue was short as it was a timed visit. The map wasn't easy to navigate but was somewhat helpful. There was no way we could see everything so we did as much as possible and it was a great experience. Not all the paintings and art works had an audio guide recording which I think wouldn't be difficult to add to the app even few lines would be better than nothing. One last thing, I don't understand why the tickets arrived very late the night before the visit date. Despite the customer service reassuring me that it would come but I was still nervous about it. For future I suggest that you send them at least 48-72 hours in advance for the peace of mind of customers.

The Louvre is simply unique in terms of its collection and the way it is presented... All family members from small to large were totally thrilled... Regarding the booking itself, I have to say that there were system-related problems but the support responded super quickly and did everything to ensure that we were able to experience the experience with an hour's delay but no matter because the service was great... Headset is absolutely recommended for city trips... so also 5 stars... Thank you!

The eternal queuing despite having a reservation and a ticket is more than annoying. In the Louvre it spreads out a little after you have passed the second, correct ticket control. For Mona Lisa, plan to queue for another half an hour to an hour. The mass of people and abundance of exhibits is overwhelming - you need several days to take a cursory look at "everything".

Admission went perfectly. Ticket for 12:30 - inside the Louvre at 12:32. Whether this was due to the head out - I don't know - I think we would have got in with any other ticket. We had already joined the queue at 11:30 and were therefore right at the front of the line. TIP: Be there 1 hour in advance - then you'll be inside quickly at the specified time - the stewards will make sure of that outside. AND: You first have to show and scan your ticket when you are inside and want to go to one of the halls - not at the entrance, where only the bags are checked (scanner like at the airport) and not down in the hall under the pyramid roof. The better entrance is at the pyramid - not at the Caroussell - it's full everywhere - but it's much better at the pyramid ... Getting out of the Louve is more difficult than getting in - we got lost several times despite flyers and signs - finally found the Caroussell exit where there is a shopping mile. As the mall is already full anyway and then the long queues to get into the Louvre - unbelievable and bad. Outside at the pyramid it is very well organized. But you need at least 3 hours to see a small part of it. It's best to go in twice on different days to see everything. Everyone just wants to see the Mona Lisa anyway - further through the Egyptian finds, total emptiness ...

It is the most interesting museum, and with the audio guide you are immersed in the history of the paintings, it would just need to be better organized for the viewing of the Mona Lisa, to give everyone a way to be able to see it from the front... All in all, a very good experience.

The Louvre is by far the largest museum we have ever visited as a family. It wasn't the Mona Lisa, but the variety and age of the really different exhibits that impressed us deeply.

A big shout out to this staff member. We are very grateful to the staff for their assistance. The guide was informative.

The guide made a great effort to bridge the long waiting time at the elevator with numerous explanations and explanations. Unfortunately, it was very hot that evening and one of the elevators had broken down. This meant that there were already long waiting times on the ground and it took almost as long again at the top. But it was definitely worth it! The view of the rooftops of Paris and the surrounding area was really beautiful and impressive.

The meeting point was clearly communicated and the tour operators were organized and knew what they were doing. It seemed a little excessive to be there 30 minutes before tour time but it wasn't as we were there at opening and the lines were forming quickly. They kept us all together and explained the entry process well, including two different security/bag checks. The skip-the-line was helpful as tower security helped ensure that our group was able to proceed and they detained people trying to move ahead without that option. Sharon was our group guide and she was very knowledgeable and kept up with all of us even while she explained all the history of the tower. It was a great experience and I recommend Experience First for your tours. And be sure to book tickets to the Summit (by elevator). It's awesome up there.

Great tour guide, Louise, made the process seamless. A beautiful clear day, making the view clear and stunning. Always a beautiful view, but shame about being so busy and popular, but that also adds to the atmosphere.

The whole booking process was very seamless. I found the guide (Natalie) very easily and she did an amazing job explaining the history of the Eiffel Tower. Learnt so many cool things that I didn't know before. Would highly recommend the guided tour for a more in-depth experience.

Edmond, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and efficient. Kept our entire group engaged. It was a bummer that we were unable to reach the summit that day due to technical issues with the elevator. Overall a great experience

Easy to start at the Louvre and wind our way around Paris. Not alot of hopping on and off. We only did this once. Great bus ride though and definitely saw all the sites. The "optional" Siene river ride is an extra €16. Be aware.

Unforgettable Eiffel Tower Summit Tour – Thanks to Joanna! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Finding our guide was easy, and from the very beginning, Joanna stood out with her professionalism. She gave us a clear safety briefing and set expectations early on—there was no skip-the-line access, and we might have to wait. And we did—almost two hours! But honestly, it didn’t feel that long at all because Joanna kept us thoroughly engaged. With her arsenal of fun facts, quirky trivia, and rich history of the Eiffel Tower, she turned what could’ve been a frustrating wait into an educational and entertaining part of the experience. Her energy, knowledge, and customer service were second to none—hands down the best I’ve encountered during my entire trip in Paris. Joanna didn’t just guide us to the top—she elevated the whole experience. Highly recommended!

We actually rode it once in the morning and again that evening. We enjoyed the second tour best because we were able to better pay attention to what was being said and was able to focus on the item being talked about. Got some really nice pictures too.

We like to use a hop on hop off bus in an unknown city because we see more than walking and using public transport. Paris is a beautiful city, but there is a lot of preparation for the Olympic Games and some sights cannot be visited. Bus drivers were kindly and helpful and they drive very well.
There was a problem with online buyed ticket but staff solved it in the Big Bus center.

In 2 days you got a good overview of the most important buildings in Paris. The entrance ticket to the Panthéon gave us new insights into French history. History. Note: Check the functioning of the connection points for the headphones. Twice they did not work.
