Day Trip with Lunch at Eiffel Tower
This was a great day trip to see Paris. Our guide David was clear on his instructions and shared interesting insights. We got the highlights of Paris and spent the most time at Eiffel Tower. The only reason why I didn’t give it a five stars was the little time allotted for shopping in this wonderful city.

London day tour
Love trip just wish we would have had more time. Steve did a great job of keeping us on task and on the bus in time to make it our locations

Off season but AMAZING!
Very memorable day made even better by a tour guide that obviously loves her job. Ana was both fun and in control. I was impressed that one person could heard such a large crowd and look happy doing it. Amazing to fit so much into one day!

Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise cost?
+
Prices start at $468 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 Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise take?
+
Plan for about 15 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 Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 21 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise?
+
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 Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 15-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise?
+
Around 7 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 15-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise 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 Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise?
+

Not included: Hotel pick up and drop off; Gratuities; and Eiffel Tower entrance ticket. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise?
+
Please meet Premium Tours representative at St Pancras International, in front of Le Pain Quotidien Coffee Shop, at 6.00am (5.30am for Saturdays). Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise offered in?
+

+

Is Paris Day Trip from London: Guided & 3-Course Seine Lunch Cruise wheelchair or stroller accessible?
