      Can I bring my bag on my tour in Paris?

Suitcases, luggage, and larger bags are not allowed inside. Only bags smaller than 55cm x 35cm x 20cm are permitted.

      Toggle FAQ

      Unfortunately, the route we use on our Louvre Tour is not fully wheelchair accessible.

      Is photography allowed in sites in Paris?

      Toggle FAQ

      Photography is allowed; however, selfie sticks nor professional photography equipment, such as tripods, are allowed.

      My tour includes a visit to a holy site, what should I wear?

      Toggle FAQ

      Dress code at Catholic churches and religious sites (such as the catacombs) requires that both women and men cover their shoulders and knees. In summer we recommend that men wear t-shirts and long shorts that cover their knees. For women, if you are wearing a strapless top or dress, bring a cardigan. If you are wearing shorts, we recommend bringing a sarong to wrap around you inside.

      Does the ticket include the 3rd Floor of the Eiffel tower?

      Toggle FAQ

      The tour does not include the last floor of the tower, however, you can absolutely buy a ticket on your own. To do so, you will have to go down the tower after the tour, wait in line, and buy a third floor ticket (25€/person). You will then be able to take the elevator to the second floor, and then a second elevator to reach the last floor.

      I’m concerned it might be too difficult for members of my group.

      Toggle FAQ

      Seeing all of Paris in a single day is pretty tiring. We do leave time for a lunch break during which you can rest and our guides are always very conscious to pace our tours to suit your group. For guests with a normal fitness level and good health, it won’t be too much but if someone in your party has issues with mobility or fitness, we would recommend that you take our Louvre tour and our Île de la Cité tour on different days. This will not cover all of the sites from our Paris In A Day tour but will include the most important highlights

      Is food & drink allowed in any of the sites visited during the tour?

      Toggle FAQ

      Closed bottled water is allowed, food is forbidden inside the visited sites.
