Our guide was nice and very informative. The only reason it is not 5 star is because there was not 15+ sites
David_S, Mar 2026
This was a great introduction to Paris! We saw many highlights in 3 hours. We also learned about riding the subway which was very useful. I recommend this tour at the beginning of your visit so you get a preview of many of the wonderful options to see in Paris.
We were a small group of four so we got to see a lot and ask many questions of our guide.
Aurora was running just a few minutes late because she was completing a previous tour. So we contacted Viator and they reassured us immediately that our tour guide would be there in just a few minutes. And she was! Great customer service.
Aurora was charming, knowledgeable, and yet quick to admit if she did not have an answer for us. I love the fact that she was from Norway so I could speak Norwegian with her.

Yasemin was enthusiastic and fun. She shared a wealth of cultural knowledge about all of the sights. Learning how to ride the metro was invaluable. Be prepared for walking and lots of up and down stairs!
Monica_V, Mar 2026
It was a great experience. You got to learn the history of the most important tourist places in Parish with a fun and knowledgeable tourist guide. Olivia was excellent, fun, patient and very knowledgeable. She didn’t make you feel rush you, but got to show you everything they mentioned when you booked the tour.
We gave Olivia a 101!!
Thank you Olivia 👍

The tour was okay and the guide was very good, but the tour title is misleading. We did not see, pass by, or hear stories about 15+ attractions. At best we stopped, photographed and heard about half; the other half were pointed to in the distance with little to no commentary and a couple of these had no mention or location identified at all.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you for your feedback, and I’m really pleased to hear that you enjoyed the guide — I’ll be sure to pass that on.
I’d like to clarify how the tour is structured, as there can sometimes be a misunderstanding around the “15+ sights” format. The experience is designed as a fast-paced overview of central Paris, where guests are introduced to a wide range of landmarks within a limited timeframe. This means some sights are stopped at and explored in more detail, while others are pointed out, explained, and placed into context as we move between locations.
This approach allows us to cover a broad number of highlights in a relatively short tour, which is exactly what many travellers are looking for. That said, all locations listed are included within the route and commentary, even if not every single one involves a full stop.
We do take your feedback seriously, particularly regarding clarity of explanations and visibility of certain landmarks, and we will review this with the guide to ensure all points are clearly identified and properly introduced.
Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts

Theresa_V, Mar 2026
Olivia was a great tour guide. We learned so much about the city and each area. It was very fun and we covered a lot of ground. Also liked learning how to use the Metro.
Pranitha_S, Feb 2026
The walking tour was very comprehensive and covered major attractions in 3 hours. We learnt a lot from this tour. Our guide was helpful and volunteered to take pictures whenever we asked
Meg_M, Feb 2026
Our tour guide was not very enthusiastic, started 20 minutes late with us as another couple booked privately with her earlier, and did not have a deep knowledge of anything. It was a disappointing tour.
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that this tour did not meet your expectations. We always try to give the best of ourselves and on the occasions failed:-(
Punctuality and engaging, knowledgeable guiding are very important to us, and your comments have been shared internally so we can review what happened and improve. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know.
Carolyn_S, Jan 2026
Well worth it! My tour guide was Chiara and she was excellent! She took the time to answer all my questions and was very personable. 4 1/2 hours is a long time to spend with someone and the time flew by. Very knowledgeable and I feel like I got to learn a lot about the important spots in Paris.
Manan_B, Jan 2026
Good tour that covers many of the major attractions. Our tour guide was very knowledgable and friendly.
Sandy_F, Jan 2026
We got to see the highlights of Paris in just a few hours. Our guide adva was wonderful, knowledgeable and fun
Shelby_H, Dec 2025
This walking tour is the best for your first activity in the city!! It helps you get acclimated to Paris, teaches you the Metro & you get to see the most sights in just a few hours. This helps you learn & see what you may want to return to & how! We landed & went straight to the walking tour & it helped us stay awake & beat jet lag too.
Olivia_B, Dec 2025
Chiara was fantastic! She was very personable and took the time to explain things to us, take pictures for us, and Crack jokes! She was extremely knowledgeable also. Definitely recommend Chiara!

It was the best tour we have ever had. Our guide was great teaching how to understanding the city. We got a great course in how to use the metro so easy. It was unfortunate for our guide it was just me and my wife but it was so great for us. She made us feel like we had our own personal guide. Great information about the city and the history of what we saw. Great overview of the most important attractions. Would recommend this for any first timer to the city to get a great overview.
Susan_L, Nov 2025
Great experience. We saw all of the highlights of Paris in just a few hours. We recommend this tour!
Rachel_H, Nov 2025
This was a good way to get around to so many places! We would have never been able to navigate all of this transportation and see all the places.
Evi_G, Oct 2025
Had a great time on the tour! Elena was sweet, friendly, and made it extra fun — plus she took great photos of us along the way.
Sheila_L, Oct 2025
Be prepared for a lot of stairs when using various Metro Lines to travel between the various sites. There seemed to be limited lifts on the Metro and the pace needed to stay on schedule with even a small group is very brisk.
Eric_R, Oct 2025
If you want a quick, Cliffnotes version of Paris, this is your tour. If you're coming to Paris for multiple nights, do this trip first. Elena(who speaks excellent English) will get you accustomed to the Paris public transportation system is highly efficient, very clean, and very safe. Your stops are quick and to the point. There's time bathroom breaks at each stop. Elena will then give a 5-7 discussion at each stop. She answers all your questions too.
She kept my 12 and 14 year old boys entertained as well. At each stop she took photos using our phones. We walked approximately 10,000 steps with this tour. I highly recommend it.
MariaLourdes_M, Oct 2025
Great way to have an overview of the city. We visited so many places in one day and learned to use public transport which allowed us to explore more places on our own. Great idea for first time visitors to Paris
Catherine_B, Oct 2025
Your was excellent! Clearly identified by guide at location start! Guide was excellent quickly changing route when metro issue identified. We say all stops of tour as expected!
PAULA_P, Oct 2025
Highly recommend for when just arriving in Paris. This tour help give you get familiar with the area and how to navigate the METRO.
Bob_P, Oct 2025
The tour is a lot of fun and very worthwhile. Our tour guide, Olivia, was terrific! She was knowledgeable, personable, patient, and very helpful. She showed us many sites, enabling us to decide whether returning for an extended visit would be worthwhile. She is very bright and insightful. The tour was an excellent entry point for our visit.
Fernanda_B, Oct 2025
It was very interesting and objective. The guide explained many things regarding the monuments as well as how to use the public transport, which helped me a lot.
Amanda_G, Oct 2025
We had less than 24 hours in Paris - this was a great tour. Our guide, Waseel, taught and showed us a lot. He helped us navigate the metro which was very helpful for us getting to the train station the next day. Would definitely recommend!
Stephen_A, Oct 2025
We had a great tour with Remi. He was very knowledgeable about Paris and shared info on a number of local topics. The sites were awesome!
donnaprestridge, Sep 2025
Yasmine took us to all of the iconic Parisienne sights in this 3+ hour walk. Just the right amount of history about each spot whilst also giving us time to take photos and enjoy the moment. She also took photos for us. I was very grateful for her food recommendations. She also gave the group some helpful tips on navigating our way around Paris on the subway.
Rachel_B, Sep 2025
It was a great introduction to the major city landmarks and a way to learn the metro system. I would recommend this early in your trip, so you have an idea of what you want to revisit later when you have more time.
Bonnie_F, Sep 2025
First time in Paris and our guide Rami was very helpful with showing us around and how to use the metro. He explained all the various places in depth. It was a great way to get acclimated on our first day! Highly recommend the tour!
