Do it yourself and avoid disappointment

MariaC_R, Aug 2026

I recently purchased a “Day Trip to London” package through Viator, and unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. While the concept of a guided tour from Paris to London is appealing, the execution fell significantly short in several critical areas. **Lack of Guidance at Gare du Nord:** First and foremost, there was a glaring absence of clear instructions on where to catch the train at Gare du Nord. As a tourist, I expected some visual cues or guidance, but there was nothing to assist us. This lack of information led to confusion and anxiety, especially as we later learned that customs clearance was necessary before boarding. This unanticipated hurdle contributed to a stressful situation, as we feared missing our train. **Train Ride Experience:** While the train ride itself was enjoyable, it was overshadowed by the logistical issues we faced prior to departure. The stress of navigating Gare du Nord detracted from what should have been a seamless journey. **Arriving in London:** Upon arrival in London, we encountered further disappointment. The guide who was supposed to meet us at the station was nowhere to be found, leaving us completely lost. After a frustrating period of wandering, we eventually located the Hop-on Hop-off bus, but the experience there was equally disheartening. **Hop-on Hop-off Tour Issues:** The tour was supposed to be facilitated through headphones, which unfortunately did not work. Additionally, the bus drivers displayed a lack of professionalism, with many being dismissive and unhelpful when we sought assistance. When our tour guide finally appeared—almost by chance—he promised to provide further guidance on the second level of the bus. However, after riding for about half an hour, I went in search of him only to discover he had left the bus entirely. This lack of organization and accountability was frustrating and rendered the tour a complete waste of time and money. **Final Thoughts:** In hindsight, it would have been far more efficient to book our own train tickets and navigate London independently. The experience with Viator’s package was disappointing, and I cannot recommend it to others. Save your money and consider planning your own trip; it will likely lead to a much more enjoyable experience.

Golden travel agency did not send us our 5 train tickets to London. We missed our train and had to take a later train.

A stressful way to see London in a day

Lisa_S, Aug 2026

You need to be at the train station 90 minutes before the train departs - 5:30 am. They don't open the line for security until 6:00. If you get there at 6, you will be so far back in line that you may not make it on the train. It leaves at exactly 7:00 am. There is no one from the tour company to help you navigate the process or to put you in a shorter line. We had enough time to ride the bus and do the boat ride, but not enough time to tour any of the places along the route. So, if you want to SEE London, this is a good plan. If you want to experience any of it, this is not enough time.

Details could have been better

You will need an ETA form to get into London. Had no idea about this till I got to the Eurostar train station. You could take up to five minutes or longer for you to get it so have prior to you going to London. Make sure your VIATOR operator send you your train ticket, also had to call Viator while I was at the train station because I did not have my train tickets.

Terrible

Gloria_B, May 2026

We didn't receive anything advertised on the tour. We called for help and spoke to disrespectful. We could not and did not get back on the location and dropped off in the middle of no where and had to take a bus and train to get back to the Eurostar

Never received Eurostar tickets - no one to meet us at London terminal

Linda_P, Apr 2026

We never received our Eurostar tickets. We called the company the night before and they emailed them to us. The booking stated someone would meet us at the terminal in London but no one was there. It took us quite some time to find anyone outside the terminal that knew about our booking. We found them at the hop on hop off stop and they said "oh, here you are"????

Visiting London

Trisha_L, Apr 2026

The Eurostar was quick and easy way to visit London. We forgot about the ETA / Visa but they were very helpful in filling it out submitting it and getting approval to visit London. So don’t forget to read everything. Trip was great. The hop on hop off Golden Tours allowed us to see all the sights without worrying how we would get around. Loved it
