Per one customer who booked the Paris Private Flexible Duration Guided Tour on a Vintage Sidecar, "What a really fun way to see the city! It was just the right amount of thrill to weave in and out of traffic, down cobblestone streets. We stopped and took photos while the guides pointed out features of the city. Lots of fun and highly recommended!"

As there are so many worthwhile landmarks and sights to see in Paris, you’ll need to decide what sort of tour you’re after, what you want to see, and how much time you have. Also, consider your group size—whether it’s just you and your partner, the whole family, or friends; different operators can accommodate various group sizes, but this may affect the overall cost and logistics. Finally, be aware that the best private tours are likely to be snapped up quickly, so book as far in advance as you can.

If your tour is being tailored to your group’s needs, be clear about your must-sees and overall expectations. Ask your guide plenty of questions and for recommendations, as they’re likely to be local experts. French weather can change quickly, and light rain showers are common, so take a waterproof layer just in case. Remember to wear your most comfortable walking shoes—you may be moving around a lot, even if transportation is included in your tour.
