Guaranteed Fun Memory!

Amazing experience! You will not regret doing this ride. On our recent trip it was hands down THE favorite thing among our entire family group of 11 - young and old! The drivers were fun, courteous and knowledgeable of the city. The nature of the ride isn’t going to allow the same level of time/quiet to learn like a typical walking tour. But the thrill of zipping thru Paris and seeing so much of the city quickly is amazing. Drivers will work to customize where you want to go to provide the best experience.

Great time. Saw a lot of the city from the motorcycle. Very fun. Driver is very knowledgeable. Told us about Notre Dame. We departed right next to the Seine for the river Cruis.

Not worth the cost

Raphael was very pleasant, however the key sights where very basic information, for a paid guide I expect more unusual basic facts. The side car was fun though. the swim river cruise was a 2 hour stand in line for a crowded boat with no food or drinks included. I would have expected at minimum skip the line access! The cost over all was too expensive for the service.

Operator response

Dear Debra, Thank you for your review and for taking the time to share your thoughts with me over the phone afterwards — it really helped me understand your experience better. I truly appreciate your feedback, and I’ll keep it in mind to make future tours even more fun and enjoyable. Wishing you all the best! Warmly, Raphaël

Fun afternoon!

Fun way to see the city highlights. Our teens especially loved it. Friendly drivers, easy communication and will pick you up and drop off according to your plans. They also did a lovely job taking family pics near the monuments. Our teens liked being on their own bike together and chat happily with Raphael. Recommend!

Unforgetable Paris Experience

Our guide/driver Raphael was on time to pick my fiance and I up at our hotel. The tour was so much fun, zipping around the streets and landmarks of Paris in the side car or on the back of the motorcycle (we had the opportunity to switch off and experience both). We stopped at some of the more iconic places for him to take some pictures of us with the bike. At the end of the sidecar tour, we were dropped off at the boat and received digital tickets for the seine river cruise... The timing was nice because the cruise was at sunset.

Walk in love

Very good tour to do as a couple! Raphael picked us up from our hotel by Sidecar and gave us a tour of all the monuments of Paris. He gave us anecdotes about all the monuments and neighborhoods. Very safe and comfortable, we recommend!
