My Review
WOW! We went in winter, so were lucky this walk was running, and our guide had extra time because of tiny number of people - 2! We visited more shops and bakeries than advertised and also took in a church and Luxembourg gardens, but this may have been due to the lack of participants. Absolutely excellent, lovely guide who was friendly and helpful and earned an extra tip! Highly recommended.

My Review
There are 2 parts to this tour. The coach illuminations around Paris and the cruise on the Seine. I don't rate the coach, the route was quite as expected, but worse the commentary made it very ordinary and I would not do this again. However, the river cruise was excellent, and I would book this portion separately again - it was very enjoyable and comfortable.

My Review
We enjoyed this walking tour, but it was over subscribed so half of the group could not see or hear what was being said. If group sizes were limited in crowded Venice, I would recommend it more highly.

Arrangements were satisfactory. I didn't like being herded like sheep and would book a private ride next time.

We had a brilliant guide and a limited number of walkers, and this personal contact with the local guide made this a special walk. We were able to hear everything that was said and received an insightful and interesting tour of out of the way places in Venice.
