I have been on quite a few of the hop-on/hop- off bus tours and usually ended up wasting time waiting for the next bus to arrive. I did not wait more than 2 minutes with this tour. The Les Cars Rouge had plenty of buses circling the stops to pick up the tourists as soon as they arrived at the... more

We had used open top busses in both New York and Dublin and had found them to be a great way over getting an overview of the city. Unfortunately Les Cars Rouges have only one limited route which takes only about two hours in total. A lot of the two hours seemed to be spent sitting at the stops or... more

We chose this tour over the company's due to reviews. This tour was very good - little to no waiting for the next bus, recorded information was limited, but good. I believe the ticket was good for two days. more

I was really looking forward to seeing the sights in Paris, but I only had a limited amount of time. Fortunately, I had tickets on the hop on/hop off bus, which would let me see some of the major attractions. And then I got on the bus. You are given a cheap pair of earbuds (I found them incredibly painful),... more

I would not recommend this tour. The drivers are very rude. We only saw a 'tour guide ' on one of the busses-she was very rude and just kept badgering everyone to buy more tickets to other tours, even after you said no. They never told you how long they would stop at each location, so you never knew if... more

With a group of 10 people, one of whom was on crutches, we thought this would be a great way to get around Paris but boy were we WRONG. DON'T DO IT.....there are several other bus tours around Paris that are MUCH better. The drivers were angry and behind schedule, the guide was put out that we had so many... more

We spent a weekend in Paris and by using the Hop on Hop off buses we were able to cover so much ground. Why anyone would use the Metro is beyond me. Even if you never got off the bus, it has a birds eye view of the city unlike the metro. Let's face it, on your first trip to... more

I booked this as I saw some good reviews on the viator website, but having now done the trip the l'open tour is the better one to go for. This is because although the commentary was clear there was not that much of it, it often didn't sync with where we were and the stops were so few and far... more

This was a bus ride, not a tour. The first driver greeted us gruffly and was put out when asked for a tour map and headsets, which were supposed to be part of the service. He must been behind schedule because he then tore off through the streets along route. As a result, the commentary on the headsets provided, rarely... more

Face it, as tourists in Paris, we want to see as many of the famous landmarks as possible and oftentimes we only have a limited amount of time to see them all. There are several bus tours that take you around the city, but our choice to use Les Cars Rouges clearly did not disappoint us or any of our... more
