Mont Saint Michel Day Trip
Paris, France
My Rating

A 14 hour day but well worth it. The mountain is so historic, it is stunning. Lunch could best be described as adequate. The location was good but food food the group was ordinary. Great Guide. KB

A pleasant afternoon out but would have been better mid summer when more of the flowers were out. KB

A good trip spoiled by the tour agent trying not to honour our viator voucher. They had oversold the tour and despite our confirming with them the day before asked that we leave the bus and seek a refund from viator. We were insistant and eventually they got a bigger bus. As a result of the delay we didn't see the Roman ruins and the tour was shortened. There was no cheese tasting - sausage was provided instead. A good tour ruined by a poor provider. The guide did her best but this was not a good advertisement for Viator or Paris Tours.

Three disappointments - the boat trip did not actually pass by the Loralee rock, we didn't stop at Rudesheim and the chicken dinner was very very average. Heidelburg was a really lovely place to visit. The guide was very good. KB

Provence in One Day Small Group Day Trip from Avignon
Avignon, France
My Rating

Trip was excellent, guide had good knowledge of the area, was very friendly and likable. Would have liked the tour to include a Winery as this has been an essential part of Province since 1200. The trip is titled Province in one day so not including a Winery seems strange.

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

Tour on the Seine was adequate, not spectacular. Boat was crowded and so not everyone got a good clear view.
Illuminations was good as we had not seen much of Paris at night. I was surprised the Grande Arch was not included. Guide was really good, on time, entertaining and gave a good commentary. Loved his driving especially around the Arche.
