The light show is especially incredible, definitely make time for it. It can sometimes get cold at night, so go prepared.

Thank you for such a useful tip! Glad the evening light show left such an impression, and good advice on dressing warm for it, that kind of practical detail is exactly what helps future visitors plan their evening well.

Make certain to be early for meeting spot!
On this tour, I was 10 minutes late for the rendezvous meeting before the tour. This of course was my fault, attempting the navigate a foreign city while simply underestimating travel time. Just know that if you are just minutes late for this tour, this company while not reimburse you or accommodate you. Perhaps the tour was awesome.
事業者からの返答
Thank you for such an honest and fair account of what happened. Just to clarify for anyone reading: we ask guests to arrive 15 minutes before departure, which gives a buffer for exactly this kind of situation, so there's no need to be especially early, just on time. We do call every guest who hasn't arrived to check in and see if we can help, and we hold to the departure time itself out of respect for the rest of the group and because we have timed-entry reservations at the sites, which means guests get the benefit of skipping the general queue. We're genuinely sorry you missed the tour, and hope the rest of your time in Paris was a good one.

Great guide!
Our guide was an art historian with a wealth of knowledge on the architecture and significance of the hospital and cathedrals. Truly a very enjoyable outing.
事業者からの返答
Thank you, Jeff! We're so glad Antolin's background as an art historian came through so clearly — there's so much packed into the Invalides beyond just Napoleon's tomb, from the architecture to the history of the hospital itself, and it's exactly the kind of depth that makes this visit stay with people. We'll be sure to share this with him!

This was a great...
This was a great historical tour. I learned so much about Napolean and the battles fought in the area. Our guide was great.
事業者からの返答
Thank you Miriam! Napoleon's story is one of the most extraordinary in all of French history and the Invalides is such a powerful place to discover it — from the battles that shaped Europe to the magnificent tomb itself. We're so glad Perrine brought it all to life for you. It's a visit that stays with you long after! She'll be delighted to hear this. Hope you had a wonderful time here in Paris.

Excursion into French History
This is a wonderful excursion into French history and our guide Julie was confirmed and passionate in sharing her information. If you want to see other museum artefacts other than those of Napoleon, you will need extra time.
事業者からの返答
Thank you David! Julie's passion for Napoleon and French history really does shine through and we're so glad it made for such a memorable visit. And a great point — the Musée de l'Armée is vast and extraordinary, and there is so much more to discover beyond Napoleon if you have extra time to explore. We'll make sure Julie sees your kind words. Hope you had a wonderful time here in Paris!

The Invalids - Pablo Daniel Moyano Ilundain
During my visit I toured the church of Saint-Louis des Invalides, a place full of French military history. Behind me is the funeral monument of Vauban, Louis XIV’s celebrated military engineer, whose work marked the defensive architecture of Europe. This site, which also houses Napoleon's tomb, is one of the great symbols of France's historical memory
事業者からの返答
Buenos dias, Pablo y Gracias - we think this is not for us as we do English language touring but we are so glad to know that you loved your time at the extremely moving military museum and Invalides church. We share your passion for it and agree that it is one of France's national treasures!

Your company was a failure but on our own we had fun
Due to poor instructions on where the meeting place was we were late but spoke to a worker at your company who tried to help. Sadly she seemed unable to direct us to the group. She sad the guide would make arrangements for us to get in But that didn’t happen and had to buy our own tickets and we toured on our own so basically for our money we got nothing. On the other hand we enjoyed touring on our own and would never bother hiring your company again
事業者からの返答
We are so sorry to have missed you! We looked high and low, to no avail, with the description of what you were wearing, a flowered shirt, grey pants and glasses. Ultimately the guide had to start without your or lose the slot we reserved months in advance, which would not have been fair to the other visitors who had come on time. We make sure to give explicit instructions on every voucher along with a detailed map and recommend aiming to arrive 15 minutes early for precisely this reason. We much regret your absence but we are at least delighted to know that you nonetheless had a wonderful time. We equally hope the rest of your stay in our magnificent city went according to plan and fulfilled all your dreams of a Paris vacation!

Great overview of history focused on the Napoleonic age
Our guide was very knowledgeable and had an obvious passion for the subject. He was adept at taking many questions from the enthusiastic 5th graders in attendance. The tour was lengthy but felt very informative and interesting.
事業者からの返答
The whole Napoleonic odyssey is so fascinating and to be able to convey that to all audiences is a treat! We hope the littles rememeber that a Maréchal's staff is in the knapsack of every footsoldier! We were glad to have you along, thanks so much from the Memories Family!
