It has been a year since I went on this tour with my family and I can’t say enough about how much we loved it. Even though it took 30 minutes in traffic to get going, our bus ride was not shortened. We saw so many Christmas lights and beautiful attractions illuminated (Lourve, Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe). We followed suggestions from reviews to arrive and line up early so we could sit on the top. We were warm enough with thermals, hats and gloves (and sitting close together). We brought our own treats that we had bought at a market earlier in the day to enjoy. There were plugs to listen to Christmas music through the bus. Mine didn’t work so my son and I shared ear buds and listed Christmas songs through Amazon music and it was so fun! I would do this again in a heartbeat!

It was a cold open top bus tour but I still loved it! I wish the commentary on the many languages box was more authentic.. It was quite awful at times. The route they took, the timing for the Eiffel tower and the xmas lights while pointing out landmarks was fantastic. A good way to see when you don't have the time

Had a wonderful view of the Paris lights,. Traffic was terrible and there were hoards of people on the streets. The Eiffel Tower was something special at night. The company had everything well organised, with proper lines to enter each bus, so there was no jostling for places. Had a wonderful experience.
