Paris Explorer Rail Tour from London with Paris Sightseeing Bus

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

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

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)”
