I’ve never seen anything like it—I had as much fun as a little kid. It was an unforgettable and absolutely wonderful experience; everything was perfect, just like in a fairy tale. plus it was our daughter’s birthday, which we celebrated there—everything was magnificent. Inside, you don’t have time to get tired; all the attractions are magical. I never thought in my life we could experience something so beautiful. All the characters are so kind—they come over to say hello and wished our daughter a happy birthday. It’s not every day you go there and they greet you—it was magical for us.I’d do it all over again 10,000,000,000,000,000,000 times. Even the cake we ate there was delicious—the restaurants are amazing. We even met some Italians there and exchanged a few words. I’d take so many walks along that avenue—it’s so magical and fills you with positive energy. We had an incredible time and were speechless from the moment we arrived until the fireworks show, which leaves a lasting impression on your heart ♥️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you, Disneyland, for this wonderful day

We booked the Eiffel Tower guided tour as the non-guided tickets for pre booking had sold out for the half-term. We were not disappointed. The office meeting place was easy to find and nicely air conditioned. Our guide, Chloé, was there early and she was brilliant. She gave us a detailed explanation of how the tour would take place, where we would need to show tickets and what to do at the different security checkpoints. She guided us smoothly and calmly throughout and engineered some queue avoidance with aplomb. Her knowledge of the tower was excellent and so well delivered. Chloé looked after us wonderfully until she delivered us to the elevator for the top stage, where guides are not allowed. Thoroughly recommend this tour.

I appreciated that they joined us and made the walk more enjoyable. The guide told us a bit about the history, and we got to see the promenade at sunset and as night fell. Highly recommended.

Fue una experiencia realmente hermosa y especial. Recorrer el Sena mientras admirábamos los monumentos y la arquitectura de París desde otra perspectiva hizo que todo se sintiera mágico. El ambiente era tranquilo, el recorrido muy agradable y cada momento se disfrutó muchísimo. Sin duda, uno de los recuerdos más bonitos de nuestro viaje y una experiencia totalmente recomendable.

Le Paradis was spectacular—highly recommended for a cabaret experience in Paris; we loved it. On the other hand, we didn't enjoy the Seine river cruise; the boat didn't have a place to serve drinks or food, so I wouldn't really recommend it.

Had a wonderful time with the family. Easy access. The place is very well maintained and everything is clearly explained. I recommend it even with young children—everything is provided for.

The entrance to the aquarium is very easy, although there was a Christmas market and the entrance was not very visible. With the Eiffel Tower visit we had no difficulty either but the meeting point could be improved (the guide should be more visible).
