So glad that we were able to get full access tickets. We took an uber from Paris and wanted to do the tour on our own timetable. It worked out perfect! It was a long day!

It was a good tour but since it’s winter, it’s cold outside when the bus running. But it’s an expected thing anyways :)

Great time! There were a total of ~15 passengers. Friendly people, friendly tour guide. Great experience!
