April 11, Montmartre Pastry and Chocolate Food Tour, Paris…read more Our family of four with a son 9 and daughter 10 did a pastry and chocolate tour through Montmartre and it ended up being a really fun way to explore the area. Arrival and First Impressions The group was small, just our family and another family, which worked out well. The shops we visited were tiny so taking turns going in and out was part of the experience. Our guide was knowledgeable and walked us through side streets, small parks, and local spots we would never have found on our own. The Highlights We stopped at six different locations including chocolatiers, bakeries, and pastry shops. Highlights included a choux pastry, crepes, madeleines, artisan eclairs, and multiple chocolate tastings. The final stop for hot chocolate and macarons was excellent. The macarons were so good we ended up buying some to bring home. The tour was not just about food. We saw the Love Wall, hidden streets, and learned about the history of Montmartre including small details about the neighborhood that made it feel more personal. The Challenges The guide did not have a very loud voice so in a bigger group it might have been harder to follow, but with our small group it worked fine. Would We Return Yes, especially to try a different tour. It was a great mix of food and exploring. Final Thoughts This tour is a great way to experience Montmartre beyond just walking around. The combination of food, history, and hidden locations made it a memorable and worthwhile experience.

Their ticket purchasing process is misleading and unethical. You go about filling our information,…read morelike you do for many websites, but unlike any other website, you hit the "Next" button (for the third time) and suddenly you have purchased the ticket, without any opportunity to review your tour date, number of participants or even credit card info. All the previous "Next" buttons led to the next step in the process, as is implied by the word and as you would expect, but not this one - it is the final confirmation of purchase even though there is NO indication that this is about to happen. Then they tell you that there are no refunds under any circumstances and that the credit and ticketing laws do not apply to them. Perhaps this is because they are based in Cyprus, which I assume they have chosen precisely to evade regulations. Note that they say there are no refunds no matter what - even if your overall trip gets cancelled or the tour gets cancelled or the guide does not show up. Be very careful, or better yet, avoid these folks and do any of the other more legitimate tours out there for wherever you are travelling to.

This bus is not worth the trip to try to do hop on and hop off. It was slower than the camels I…read morerode in Cairo once. Please don't waste your time and money on this one. It was part of our pass we bought, but still we felt like we wasted time going on this. It took forever from going to one point of interest to the next. Some of the stops were not available to go to due to season or timing. The bus was a double decker. You can sit in the top area to see the city views. The bus looked great from the outside but from the inside it was not very clean. If you do decide to buy the bus pass, there are 24/48 hour validation options. Side Note: When you get the receipt for the bus pass, the bottom of the receipt has WiFi information and password.

I have emailed the group sales office and the lady replied to me the next business day with a very good discount price for our group of 12. I paid for the group purchase by fill up the purchase form with my credit card information and scanned it than email it back to the group sales office at Open Tour Paris. They reply to me the next day with a bar code I can use to pick up all 12 tickets when we on board the first bus. They told me I can just show the driver my phone because I already on my trip to New York by the time I received the bar code. Very convenient! The hop on hop off buses are covered almost all the famous tourists locations. It is a very good choice if you have time. Paris traffic was very bad. I will take the subway if I am in a rush! But I enjoyed the ride with the Open Tour specially when the weather was good and I can setting on the upper level!

Francois was our tour guide. He was wonderful! He showed us a GRAND time around Paris. We only had 3 days in Paris and the scooter tour gave us a taste of all the beautiful landmarks. We love Francois so much we decided to tour the next 2 days with him by foot. He was able to take us to all the places we wanted to go to and more!! He took us to the best ice cream place in Paris! You can bank on that. He was very knowledgeable, kind and patience. He has great photography skill so you're guaranteed to have great photos in Paris. He's also a foodie so he'll show you all the best places to eat in Paris, like a local. He saved us so much time and trouble. You will not regret your time with him. My family loved Francois so much they invited him to visit them in the States! Lol.

It was the most memoriable experience we had on our whole trip in Paris. Xavier was so friendly and nice. We had another couple with our tour and Xavier was able to make everyone's request happen. We couldn't ask for a better tour guide. It really is a must do!!! Don't miss out on your chance of a life time, book now I highly recommend Paris by Scooter.

We got there early enough to have lunch and walk around a bit. At 2:30 we went over to the statue and sat on a bench to enjoy the sights and wait for our tour. at 3:20, no one had showed up with tickets. We called the tour provider and they said they had notified Viator that this specific tour was oversold and that we were moved to the 3:00 tour. NO ONE ever told us. ON top of that, we were at the location at 2:45 (the time they said we needed to get the tickets at the statue) and NO ONE was there. We called Viator and they said we were considered "late" and they could not refund us, despite the fact that we were way early. at 3:37 pm, we received an email from Viator saying that our tour had changed to 3:00 pm and we needed to be at the statue at 2:45. nearly an HOUR after the time we were supposed to be there, they notified us. However, we WERE there. Viator still claims they cannot refund our tickets. I'll add, the email they sent us had a 3:00pm timed ticket to enter Notre Dame on our own, but we received it 37 minutes too late. This was a once in a lifetime trip, and to miss such a highlight as Notre Dame, after we've taken so much time to plan ahead, and pay nearly $200 for this unique experience.
