2.Paris by Rail with Sightseeing Bus and River Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 578 reviews · 15 hours (approx.) · from $387

Spend a long day moving from London to Paris by reserved-seat Eurostar, then see landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, Champs-Élysées, and Notre-Dame by sightseeing bus and Seine cruise. The core option is independent, so check your booking details before counting on a guide. Past guides have included Peter, Angela, Carol, and Nigel.

“If you are looking for a quick basic tour (which suited us perfectly) the guided bus tour is a great option. You will see the main point of attractions and have a some free time for your own activities and to wander about. There isn’t a great deal of walking. Great for just seeing some of the sights by bus. Carol our tour guide was fantastic!”

4.Paris Explorer Rail Tour from London with Paris Sightseeing Bus

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 111 reviews · 13 hours (approx.) · from $353Best value

Evan Evans Tours packages return Eurostar tickets from London with a Paris hop-on hop-off sightseeing bus ticket. You travel independently, with reserved train seats and no guide or Paris Metro pass included. The roughly 13-hour day gives you time to choose a few major sights, rather than see the whole city.

“The price was great compared to booking directly through Eurostar. I knocked off a star for the unclearness over where/when to meet (answer: in front of the Pain Quotidien in St Pancras station not before 6 am. There is no groups desk and the time they give is the early arrival not when it leaves)”
