This was a brilliant way to see the city. Lily our guide was just great. She tailored the tour to suit us and our 10 year old son who was really keen on the street art and graffiti. We went via streets and areas we would never have found by ourselves. Lily shared history and facts along the way and our son said it was the best part of the trip. I would highly recommend this to any family. The electric bikes also mean your feet get a rest from the city walking!!

Must seeing when you are in Paris.

You can enjoy Versailles palace and the Gardens. Tickets come with no problem, but there may be a wait time at the security chack in the entrance, sa it’s better to be there before the opening hour.

It was a really fun experience for the whole family. Our guide was great and we visited some really interesting places.

Wonderful experience. Well worth doing. Rory was an excellent guide who was extremely knowledgable and welcoming

Herat guid she was informed and made the experience amazing!
