Quick trip to Paris from London - We did a combo Eurostar train from London to Paris and the Big Bus hop-on/hop-off. We also got tickets to the Louvre. The train ride was easy to nagivate from London to Paris. We had a little issue with the Metro because my eSIM wasn't working so I couldn't figure out which train I needed but I figured it out with the online Metro map and we got to the Eurostar train in plenty of time for the trip back to London. We saw the sites we wanted to and learned a lot about the areas we were driving through. If we had had enough time, we would have stopped at the famous area with all the cafes. It was great to see the Olympic rings since the Olympics had just been there a few months previous to our trip. Bring plenty of water and snacks, there is a lot of walking too, wear comfortable shoes.

Big Bus Tour was good, the Arc de triumphe was FANTASTIC - Big bus tour is a great way to get around Paris along with audio guides to explain what you are looking at. The tickets to go to the top of the Arc de triumphed were worth every penny (or Euro) the view from the top of the monument is breath taking and the historical movie inside is riviting.

A Fantastic Tour for Enjoying The Beauty of Paris - We recently experienced the Big Bus Hop-On Hop-Off tour during our trip to Paris. The buses were clean and comfortable, and the explanations in multiple languages was informative. With stops at major sights like the Eiffel Tower and Louvre, it made sightseeing fun and memorable. Prices were about €39 for a 1-day pass, which felt reasonable for the convenience provided. Overall, it’s an efficient way to explore Paris at your own pace. Highly recommend!

Arc Views - Enjoyed the view from the top! Lots of stairs but worth the climb. At 6:30pm you can see the presentation to the unknown soldier

Good way to see Paris - We were lucky and had good weather and sat on top in the open air, the bus driver was helpful in answering questions and this is a great way to see Paris. We did not get off and we saw most of the sites we wanted to, grab a brochure and headphones and hang on, the traffic is horrendous but the bus driver did a great job. We didn’t see one accident but I would never want to drive in Paris, thank you Big Bus!

Paris tour - The tour was okay, a few of the voice boxes did not work, so had to jump around to find one that worked properly. Also read the fine print, the tours stop awfully early and you may not have transport, we got stranded at the Effile Tower and had to take a taxi back to our hotel.

Ticket redemption - We discovered we had to travel to another location a good distance from our hotel just to redeem our tickets. Decided it wasn’t worth the effort and cost so we didn’t go

That's what's... - If it catches you, as in our case, with rain, chaos. The bus took more than half an hour to arrive, instead of the promised 10-15 minutes. Crowded, no room to sit, and glass fogged. Proceeding just barely due to the high traffic density. The visit to the Arc de Triomphe is worth the excellent view. Although you have to be willing to climb the 280 steps of the spiral staircase.

Terrible - The Big Bus tour advertises that buses come every 6-12 minutes. We have waited at stop #4 for 50 minutes and the bus is still not here. Very frustrating.

Waste of money - It didn’t go to half the places, we weren’t told this at booking but when we were boarding. Waste of money, too long, don’t recommend
