Itinerary
Meet your private driver on Avenue des Champs-Élysées or choose a pick-up at your city center hotel to begin this Viator Exclusive tour of Paris by 2CV. Hop into the classic car, first introduced as a work vehicle for farmers in the 1940s and now a beloved French icon, and enjoy the view as you travel through Paris.
Drive past several of the city's main sights, including the Arc de Triomphe, Notre-Dame Cathedral, Louvre Museum, Moulin Rouge cabaret and the Eiffel Tower. Travel through the bohemian quarters of Saint-Germain-des-Prés and Montmartre, getting insider tips for visiting the neighborhoods later on your own. Take advantage of your private guide to ask questions along the way, and rest assured there will be plenty of opportunities to get out and snap photos.
Then, continue to the elegant Place Vendôme and Luxembourg Gardens, two spaces popular with locals and less-visited by tourists. After your tour, your driver will drop you off either back at your hotel or at the pick-up point on Avenue des Champs-Élysées.
Please note: The Deux Chevaux is smaller than most modern automobiles, so to maximize comfort these tours are limited to three people per car (not including the driver). If your group is larger than three, that's no problem. As many as nine people can book this private tour, with each trio being assigned its own driver and car, and the vehicles traveling in a convoy.

This was my second time booking as I loved this tour the first time and wanted to take my mom. Our guide was very kind and personable, and we appreciated his effort navigating through the city despite all the road closures that day. However, the biggest disappointment was that the Montmartre area — which we were most looking forward to — was closed, and this wasn’t communicated to us in advance even though it was known beforehand.
We still enjoyed seeing parts of Paris and learning from our guide, but for the price, the experience didn’t quite meet expectations. A heads-up about the closures or an adjusted itinerary would have made a big difference. It felt like we were just driving around aimlessly to waste a lot of time because of all the closures and ultimately I agreed to drop us early and not use our full time. I think it was just not a great day for the tour, not really the guides fault.

Hi Paige, I am sorry you didn't get the exact experience you wanted.
You should know we can't go everywhere during the tours, it's depend of the meeting point and drop off, then we make sure to show the most of monuments possible around.
We don't control the public space, most of the time it's great but for that day it wasn't.

Fun way to see a lot of Paris - drove all around and stopped for pics- also got a wonderful croissant
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Thank you for the feedback, the chauffeur said this 3 hours tour was very top !
Rebecca_B, Mar 2025
Our guide Renaud was very informative and took us to all of the best spots around town. The weather was amazing and the open roof Citroën 2CV was very comfortable and turned heads everywhere we went! We had a lovely experience and would definitely recommend booking with Renaud.
Deepthi_R, Feb 2025
We were taken around by Renaud and it was fabulous tour. The car was clean and was just enough with ample space for 3 of us. We got some great pics in the car as well. Renaud explained every attraction in detail. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to facts about Paris. He was very calm and patient with us. He even stopped at a great place for macaroons and we got some as complimentary. Overall, very happy as he was very flexible and tried his best to accommodate our plans.
michele_g, Dec 2024
This was by far the best way to see the real Paris. Little lane ways, lesser known buildings, and a very informative tour guide.
Renaud is the greatest tour guide, passionate, humorous, and very knowledgeable.
My partner said he has never enjoyed a tour as much as this.
Please do yourselves a favour and do this tour.
William_B, Nov 2024
It was a very good trip around Paris and we saw a lot of sights that we did not know about like the small Roman colosseum, the perimeter wall and the history of the C2V :)
Michele_R, Oct 2024
Fun trip with Renaud around Paris. It was Sunday do traffic was not as bad. We saw a lot of sights and it was a beautiful day for a ride in a convertible!
john_S, Aug 2024
The tour of the city of Paris and riding in a French car. Seeing French people, the capitol, museums, and parcs. Paris is a fabulous city I love
Narelle_L, Jun 2024
Our driver Matthew was wonderful. He was on time, very easy to understand and a very capable driver. I would definitely recommend this tour and Matthew as we saw numerous Parisian landmarks up close in the time in a fun way. Even though the car is small it is very comfortable.
Nigel_R, Jun 2024
We were promptly picked up by our driver and tour guide Alex outside our AirBnB in the 9th district. Alex was just wonderful young gentleman dressed in traditional Parisian style. He was very engaging & had an extensive knowledge for someone so young. This is a very novel experience that we would both highly recommend.
Lisa_B, Jun 2024
The cute little car and friendliness of our driver, Dove. This was the best way to see the layout of the city so we could decide which area to explore further. We loved the reaction of others as we were driven around the city.
Elisa_M, Nov 2023
Our private driving tour of Paris was lots of fun. Our driver Renauld was very knowledgeable and well versed in History. We learned so much about Paris, and saw beautiful monuments. I highly recommend this experience to everyone.
Mark_E, Oct 2023
Nicholas was our driver and was a lovely guy. Very relaxed and easy going and knew his way around.. which was helpful!! Car was really comfortable and we got some great pics and great views. Really enjoyable trip.
Linda_C, Sep 2023
Great tour to get an overview of the city and special sights. Driver very accommodating when we wanted to stop. He also knew best places for pictures

We loved our tour with Nicholas! It reminded us of why we love coming to Paris. We have already told our friends to go!

We were allocated an amazing guide who made sure that our tour was full of fun and interesting facts which we will always remember ! I truly recommend this tour!
connie_S, Feb 2022
Our driver Dove was pleasant and very informative! We enjoyed the tour! We got a great overview of Paris. People loved seeing this fun car go by them. They often waved or took pictures!
Gladiola_B, Jan 2020
There was supposed to be a stop for free beverage and treats at Laduree but that did not happen. The guide/driver said he did not have the vouchers for it. So make sure you confirm your itinerary before you start. We’re hoping to get some refund for this oversight.
Driver was 15 minutes late.
Be aware that 3 hours include sitting idle in Paris traffic.
If the weather permits, have the roof top open for better viewing.
Response from Host, Jan 2020
Thank you for your message Gladys !
We were very pleased to drive you around Paris.
Please apologize for the omission of the Ladurée stop and also for the 15min. We will check what happened to prevent this from happening again.
You can ask for a refund on your booking page on tripadvisor for Ladurée Stop and we will proceed to it.
I remain at your disposal for any further information.
Best regards,

Vladimir showed up at our hotel in a beautiful red Citroen. Even though it was a rainy day interspersed with occasional bouts of sun we had a great time. The ride was comfortable, sights of Paris were explained and many opportunities for photos were provided. We even had a chance to stop for hot chocolate and macaroons with a sliver (very rich) of opera cake at LaDuree. We enjoyed the entire experience. Thank you Vladimir
Beverly_B, Oct 2019
We saw so much and got so much information. What a fabulous way to show my husband my favorite city! You get a great tour and yummy macaroons and coffee during a break! Would certainly recommend this tour!
Stacy_S, Oct 2018
I traveled to Paris with my girlfriend and we got Robert for our 3 hour tour and he was the best! He took us everywhere showed us places we probably wouldn't have seen. We stopped and had tea and dessert which was fabulous. We were so glad we did it and would highly recommend it!! Thank you.
Nigel R, Sep 2018
Three hours that you will never forget on a personalised tour around Paris. Great photo opportunities and time for a refreshments where you would never think to go. What a way to see Paris. Thank-you Jeane for such a great afternoon. Exceptional value.
Andree, Mar 2018
This is a great way to get introduced to the city of Light, orient yourself and learn about the architecture and history! great fun!
Maureen_M, Mar 2018
The 2cv was the best thing you can do on you first day of turning. You will get a first hand, up close view at the city. John Remi excellent tour guide.
Marley B, Jan 2018
We were a little disappointed in our tour guide. He seemed very interested in the women walking next to our car-- and really was quite distracted. We wanted some history of Paris, and truly only showed us the sights and stated the names of the monuments but didn't tell us too much about it.
Aylwin L, Oct 2017
Very fun experience. The car is unique. I would have loved to explore the Latin Quarter. The macaroons were awesome. The driver was cool.
Zuzana M, Sep 2017
Our guide Abi was a sweetie, the weather was good: really a fun way to see Paris!
Claude J, Aug 2017
The best way to start your tour of Paris, Jean-Remi our driver quickly put my wife at ease, due to his excellent driving skills and knowledge of Paris. You will feel like a celebrity as everyone wants to take a picture of car. He tailored our tour to our wishes and included a couple of special stops on the way. Jean-Remi told me wife would be very thankful and he was right! :

It was a great Experience... one must do when in Paris.
ANTHONY_K, Sep 2016
Having read the previous reviews I think maybe we weren't so lucky ? ..... Our driver wasn't as fluent in English as we'd maybe hoped and for the high price we'd paid it really was very expensive. The stop at the patisserie didn't quite go to plan either, there was only one member of staff who was worked off her feet so the 'quick stop' ended up being 45 minutes. Having seen a delicious cake as we entered we asked if we could pay extra for one of our choice the voucher only entitles you to a choice of two but they said no, unfortunately the cake were given was so sickly it got left. Great idea for a tour and love the concept but far too expensive
