Paris well worth the trip!
I would definitely recommend this trip! The train ride was comfortable and easy. The guide met us at the station and was great in getting us around and great recommendations for eating and shopping.

Horrible experience
Horrible experience. We were given Paris day-trip tickets that were no longer valid for use in Paris. As a result, our family of four was almost stranded and we had to purchase new tickets in Paris, even though the day trip had already been paid for as part of our package. We contacted Golden Tours and Expedia to request a refund for the tickets we had to purchase. Expedia asked us to provide a receipt, which I promptly sent. Despite providing the requested documentation, we have still received no refund or meaningful follow-up. This happened in May 2026, and it is now September with the issue still unresolved. The lack of accountability and customer service has been extremely disappointing. Please save yourself the aggravation and carefully consider your options before purchasing from this company.
Response from the operator: We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and the inconvenience caused to your family. We understand how frustrating it must have been to purchase additional tickets and then experience delays in resolving the matter. Please email Rail@goldentours.com with your booking reference and any relevant documentation so our team can investigate your case further. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused.

Bit of Paris
Fast paced. Guide was pleasant and knowledgeable. We were disappointed that we did not get to Notre Dame as it was a feast day. The Seine cruise was lovely.
via Viator
Best day trip!
This was the best experience! We flew to London and decided to do a day trip to Paris. Our guide, Matthew was very knowledgeable about all the places we visited. It was a long hot day but getting to see all these places in one day was unforgettable. We were able to see Notre Dame, Eiffel Tower and the Louvre. We even had time to eat at a cute little French restaurant after the Eiffel Tower. Definitely a day to remember!

Day Trip to Paris with Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and Louvre Museum: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does Day Trip to Paris with Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and Louvre Museum cost?
+
Prices start at $495 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Day Trip to Paris with Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and Louvre Museum take?
+
Plan for about 16 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is Day Trip to Paris with Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and Louvre Museum worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.7/5 across 182 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Day Trip to Paris with Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and Louvre Museum?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Day Trip to Paris with Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and Louvre Museum suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 16-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Day Trip to Paris with Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and Louvre Museum?
+
Around 64 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 16-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Day Trip to Paris with Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and Louvre Museum start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Day Trip to Paris with Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and Louvre Museum?
