Capri Day Trip from Rome
Rome, Italy
My Rating

What a wonderful island. Very picturesque and well worth the long drive from Rome. Would do it again.
We missed touring the Blue Grotto due to the weather conditions. High winds created high waves and we were not able to navigate the opening to the grotto.
The chair lift to the peak of the island was a great alternative. Wonderful scenery from the top.
Would definitely recommend.

Well worth the money paid. Had a wonderful ride. Sometimes it was difficult to hear the serenade due to the number of gondolas in the group.
Would definitely recommend.

Seine River Cruise and Paris Canals Tour
Paris, France
My Rating

This was a very enjoyable tour. The Guide was excellent and made the tour very interesting. The Canals portions was of particular interest with the 9 locks we went through and the final tunnel to the Seine River was intriguing.
The Seine River Cruise was very informative. We were able to see very well due to the size of the boat.
Would definitely recommend this tour.

London Day Trip from Paris by Eurostar
Paris, France
My Rating

All went quite well from our hotel pick up to transferring to the train for our ride to London. Even when we got to London we were met by a representative who helped us with our tickets for the Thames River Cruise and the Hop on Hop off bus tour. However, we missed our shuttle bus from the train station to the 'original tour line' hop on hop off stop due to the train being late. So we waited another hour for the next shuttle. This shortened our already short visit to London.
Our train back to Paris was leaving at 7:05pm so we had to make sure we were back to the train station by 6:40pm. Again we were mislead as to where the pick up stop was after the Thames River Cruise since this bus stop was out of service. It took us some time to find another stop close by. We waited and waited for the correct 'original bus line bus' to come but one did not. Many other bus lines did but not the one we needed.
After some time we had to hail a taxi or we would not have made it to the train station in time for our return to Paris. We had no other option in order to make that train. This tour cost us more due to the taxi fare.
All in all, we knew it would be a very busy day but the fact that we spent most of our time either waiting for the correct bus or looking for alternate stops, due to out of service bus stops, took most of the enjoyment out of our day.
Very long day yes and that was ok, but very stressful.

Skip the Line: Eiffel Tower Tickets and Small-Group Tour
Paris, France
My Rating

This Tour was definitely worth it. Our guide was excellent. He knew lots of details on the history of the Eiffel Tower. He also gave us lots of advise as to what to visit while in Paris. The Group size was perfect for this type of tour.
Would certainly recommend this tour.

Versailles and Giverny Day Trip
Paris, France
My Rating

Versailles was awesome. There was an unusual number of tourists this day but our Guide was very good and very attentive.Just wished we had more time to explore the grounds.
Giverny was a pleasant surprise. The beautiful gardens and 'house' were very worthwhile seeing.
Would recommend this day trip.

Seine River Cruise and Paris Illuminations Tour
Paris, France
My Rating

The Seine River Cruise was worthwhile. However, it was difficult to see some of the highlights spoken of in the audio, due to the large number of people on the boat.
The Illuminations Tour was a little disappointing in that we found it difficult to put the surroundings into perspective only having been in Paris for one day at the time of the tour.
