Doing what: Paris Paradis Latin Dinner and Show
This is a phenomenal experience y Paris. We went to the dinner/show on Christmas eve and we enjoyed a lot. The production of the show is very good including dancers and acrobats and the food was also excellent. Not recommended for small children.

We had a wonderful afternoon with Alexandra. Fortunately we were the only participants so could ask as many questions as we needed answered. It was bitterly cold and raining, but the tour was so great we did not feel it. The venues were well researched, the tastes fantastic and the amount we learned was astonishing. Great to learn something new about how different culture celebrate Christmas with different foods and customs.

The tour guide was nice and really took us to elite places for chocolate shopping and gathering of the 13 desserts. He then took us to sit and eat the desserts with a coffee or tea and nice Christmas music. The title of this tour could be misleading maybe it should be something like " the 13 dessert

Christmas in France or Paris is memorable and magical because the whole city is light-filled :-)

This was a wonderful, personalized tour lead by a true gentleman, who took incredible care in ensuring the tour was suitable for us and our son. This was a great opportunity to stroll the back streets of Paris to find hidden gems and collect the 13 deserts of Christmas that we then shared over tea at our final destination. Highly recommend this tour.

The Small-Group Gourmet Christmas Tour of Paris exceeded any expectation that we might have had. Our tour guide, Roberto, was wonderful. (He even made dinner reservations for us for Christmas dinner and offered his phone number in case we had problems while we were in town.) The tour was a great way to see streets and shops that are off the beaten path in otherwise tourist-filled parts of town. The tour isn't really paced for people interested in heavy duty shopping at each stop, but that was just fine with us. The tour concluded with coffee or tea at a nice hotel with plenty of time to enjoy the delicious holiday treats we picked up along the way. I would recommend the tour to anyone planning on being in Paris for Christmas, especially since many places are closed for the holidays.

Doing what: Paris Christmas Lights Tour
Great tour if the weather is good- I can see how it could be a miserable experience if it was raining. We bundled up with hats, gloves and scarves and were very comfortable throughout the evening tour. The company itself is not very organized. The front desk for check-in, as well as the buses out front, did not have any clear lines or signage. Made for a lot of pushing and shoving to get into the bus, but once we were on board I really enjoyed the spectacular city lights. All in all, I would recommend this tour- the holiday sparkle of the city would be a shame to miss.

Doing what: Paris New Year's Eve Illuminations and Dinner Tour
Unfortunately we had taken a day tour of Paris the previous day which covered all the highlights of this tour. However, it was well organised and we enjoyed it.
The New Year's Eve Dinner was superb and good value. The restaurant staff were very attentive and spoke good English.We had a great time.

The night tour was great but the restaurant selected was not ready for us and made us wait in the rain. There was no dancing and I was sat in the smoking section. This was a terrible dinner selection. Me and My son left before dessert because it was sooo bad and we did not want to ruin our new years eve.

Doing what: Christmas Day Trip to Vaux le Vicomte from Paris
Booked this tour to view the Christmas lights. However, when we arrived, it was still bright and the sun was shining. Did not get to see the lights as shown in the pictures provided. In fact, we were wearing sunglassess on the tour because the sunlight was so bright. Gave it two stars because of the wonderful drive through the country side.

Doing what: Paris New Year's Eve Illuminations and Dinner Tour
The tour through central Paris celebrating New Years eve was magnificent showing an illuminated and sparkling Paris. The following dinner was a set back though: the restaurant was much to small, the food was not particular good and it took forever to serve it. We did not finish eating until 1 o'clock, obviously the entry into 2011 did not take place in the streets of Paris as I expected. A better restaurant would have made all the difference.

Not worth doing. No information which related to Christmas or the history of any of the lighting. Most of the time the audio guide wasn't even working, just repeated Christmas Carols.

Doing what: Paris Christmas Lights Tour
There were not as many xmas lights as we had anticipated and there was a tremendous amount of holiday traffic. I felt as if we sat in traffic most of the tour. The blankets were not "warm" and it was a particularly cold nite. Also my daughter needed to use the restroom and the staff was not very polite.
