  We did this tour as a couple in June and it was a great way to see Paris without being locked into a rigid group schedule. The Versailles visit was the highlight, the guide was knowledgeable and the skip-the-line access made a big difference given the summer crowds. The Seine cruise and Eiffel Tower on Day 2 were well organized. The semi-guided format suits us, you meet at the activity, enjoy it with a guide, then the rest of the day is yours. The hotel was centrally located which made getting around easy. Airport transfers were on time both ways. Would recommend for anyone who wants a bit of structure without losing the flexibility to explore on their own.Show more

  Ad on internet misleading, several activities Ilisted were lefft totally up to customer to arrange. First day wrong pick up address given. Second day hotel desk said pick up was a short walk, actually a 40 taxi drive, almost missed the tour bus. Audio not working on this bus tour of city, guide made little effort to describe what was being seen, we jumped off. Internet listed optional day of activities as including Normandy, never made it there. Several rude employees at hotel. Would recommend avoiding this company and arranging stay on your own.Show more

  Dear Parashos, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We take all reviews seriously and would like to address your comments directly. Regarding the meeting points: Paris and Versailles is a semi-guided tour, which is clearly stated at the time of booking. Guests make their own way to designated meeting points, all of which are detailed in the trip document. On Day 2, our records show we responded within minutes when you reached out, confirmed the correct address (6 Avenue du Dr Brouardel, 75007), and noted it was a very short walk from where you were standing. We are glad you found the group. On the audio guide: occasionally a device may be faulty, but spare units are always available on-site. The staff present would have replaced it immediately upon request. Regarding the Normandy excursion: this was booked and confirmed as part of your package. We are sorry to hear it was not completed to your satisfaction and would welcome the opportunity to understand what happened if you reach out to us directly at info@eskapas.com. Hotel staff conduct is outside our control, but we have noted your comments. We regret that your experience did not meet your expectations and remain available to discuss any of the above directly. Kind regards, Sinan

  We realized that Tourradar was not really the group for us. It was costly getting to the venues to meet the excursions. Because we're in our 70s we would never try to do that again. Th e places we visted were amazing (Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Versailles). To have our City tour delayed from 315 to 1015 was nuts. Who wants to see Paris in the dark (maybe many??:-( It was too late for us and we skipped it. I personally should not have gone to Mont St Michelle. All those steps were hard on my already hurting back/hips.Show more

  Hi Darlene We're glad to hear you liked the visits. As it is indicated in our package, we don't have pick-up from hotels instead we are expecting our customers to come to meeting location. It is a good practice against high traffic jams in Paris and the time to waste to pick up from each of our hotel. Kind Regards, Aysegul

  This tour was not worth the money at all. The only positive, punctual service provided was airport transfer! 1. Every activity involved finding your own transportation to the meeting place, which was next to Eiffel Tower. This cost $35/ trip via taxi, i.e $70 round trip. Yes, theoretically, metro / subway was possible, but in a strange city, with a different language, I didn't want to take a chance getting lost and missing the tours. 2. All activities were self guided, which meant that I was given an audio device and sent on my way. Specifically, at the Louvre, I was not able to navigate with corresponding audio commentary at all! Thousands of people around me - I couldn't figure out where exactly I was or what I was looking at! I was very envious of other tours around me with and actual human guide! 3. One of the activities was a city tour. This tour was only offered at 10pm, with a pre-recorded audio guide. It was difficult to see anything at that time, and I've found out that this "tour" was more of a ride to Mullen Rouge, rather than an actual tour. We were dropped off at 11pm back at Eiffel Tour - good luck finding your way back to your hotel! 4. Hotel room was the smallest I've ever seen / been to. Cost of hotel is $100/night, which is $600 for 6 nights. Tour (with additional trip to castles) cost me close to $5,000.00! I think that I couldn't have arranged very different, personal tours for $4,400! I've arranged for Tour Radar tours in the past, going to Argentina and Brasil, and that was a totally different experience, with being picked up in hotel room and personal "one on one" tours. Based on that experience, I've booked the Paris tour - and what a disappointment that was!Show more

  Hi Ilya,Thank you for reaching out! I wanted to confirm that the tour met all the advertised details. Hotel Andre Latin: This is a 3-star hotel located in the heart of Paris, specifically in the 5th Arrondissement. It has received a rating of 4.1/5 based on 901 reviews. Louvre Museum Visit: The tour includes skip-the-line tickets with audio guides, which is essential as the museum can be quite crowded with tourists. As one of the largest museums, it can be challenging to navigate in a group. The audio guide allows visitors to explore at their own pace, making the experience more enjoyable. Paris City Tour, Seine Cruise & Eiffel Tower Tour: This is scheduled for 4:45 PM, a time chosen to avoid the heat and crowds. Mornings are reserved for your free time at the Louvre Museum. Pick-Up and Drop-Off: Please note that there is no pick-up or drop-off service, as clearly stated in the tour description. This approach helps us avoid lengthy wait times at various hotels, making it more efficient for the group, especially when staying in different districts. Eskapas Travel prides itself on providing clear guidance during semi-guided trips like the Paris and Versailles package. Best regards, Aysegul

  This was not a traditional group tour experience. We were alone in our Hotel and there was no tour guide from the company. The tours are run by a different company that operates from the street and includes different people with ever experience. We did find the Hotel to be comfortable and quaint. The driver picking us up at the train station was very helpful as was the ride to the airport. Public transportation is the way to get around Paris and to your destinations. We were given tickets for the boat ride and told to go whenever we wanted. JonathanShow more

  Hi Jonathan Thank you for your review. Due to Paris traffic jams and loss time during pick up and drop off services, we are only giving meeting location close to activity area. During Seine River cruises, there is only audio guide support and the tickets give the flexibility to use during your stay. Kind Regards, Aysegul

  Paris is an incredible city, even more beautiful than I had imagined from the movies. Our guide, Nicole, was an amazing companion throughout the tour. She was always helpful and ensured we learned so much about every stop along the way. The hotel rooms were smaller than I expected, but I knew that’s common in Paris. Overall, I was very happy with the time management and services provided by Eskapas.Show more

  Paris, with all its charm, was waiting to be explored, and even at 70, I was able to fully immerse myself in this dream city. Our tour group was full of fun people, and our guide was both friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. The driver was calm and confident, expertly navigating the Paris traffic and making us feel safe throughout the journey. The accommodations were comfortable as well. I highly recommend this experience to everyone!Show more

  I had never purchased a tour from Eskapas before, and this was my first experience with them. I can honestly say I was very pleased. From the moment I started asking questions about the tour until the very end, they made me feel like they were by my side the whole time. Thank you for everything!Show more

  Visiting the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, and the breathtaking Versailles was so much fun. I found the tour to be better organized than many others I've been on. While there were a few minor complaints about accommodations within the group, I was quite satisfied with the hotel. The food was decent as well.Show more
