We knew we could only spend 1 day in Paris and so we decided to book a tour. I'm glad we did. Originally, we booked the tour with lunch in the Eiffle tower, but the were not able to do that on our date (maybe because of the preparations for the Olympics?). Even Evans company was wonderful and very responsive while the tour change was made.
Although it was a quick tour, I didn't ever feel super rushed. We were able to see most of the "big" highlights while there, even though the city was getting ready for the Olympics. There was one negative: our tour guide was not there when we got off the train. We waited an hour for him to arrive. It seems that there was a communication snafu between him and the tour company. That was quite frustrating and we felt stranded for a while. However, once he arrived, we found him to be incredible and he made our day enjoyable. We learned so much more with him than we would have if we had gone on our own. We were really glad we did this tour!!
