Parijs Tootbus Ontdekking overdag en 's nachts Routes

As a travel advisor, I test hop-on hop-off tours regularly to know what I can confidently recommend, and unfortunately, Tootbus Paris fell far short. Here are the issues: 1. Audio system failures. Traveling with my family of four, none of us could get the "live" audio (a computer-generated commentary meant to trigger near each site) to work at all. It either failed to activate or froze completely. We switched to the plug-in headphones connected to the bus's audio jacks, which worked only marginally better. Several outlets froze and looped, and at one point we heard the same sentence start and stop 5+ times over a 10-minute stretch. 2. Weak content, even when it worked. When the audio did play, the commentary was thin and simplistic. It consisted of a minute or two of basic description per site, then long stretches of music while the bus crawled through traffic. Having done hop-on hop-off tours elsewhere that were genuinely engaging and informative, this was a real letdown. 3. Language switching issues. The audio would randomly switch from English to French without warning, requiring constant manual resets back to English. 4. Outdated content. Most surprising was hearing repeated references to the "upcoming 2024 Olympics" — on a system that's apparently over two years old. That level of neglect in updating basic commentary is hard to overlook. Bottom line: Between the technical failures, thin content, and outdated information, this is an experience I will not recommend to clients. There are better ways to see Paris, and this tour undermined the value hop-on hop-off tours are supposed to deliver.

We struggled to find the beginning of the night tour due to some construction.. We stopped Johann in the middle of the street (we noticed his shirt!). He looked like he was on his way home yet he changed direction and helped us find our way to the tour. That type of care was so appreciated and needed after a long first day in Paris.

Magnificent visit of Paris for 2 hours this morning, protected from the sun and heat by an awning, while enjoying the air and the view from the top of a Tootbus! Great to be able to discover the main monuments and points of interest in Paris, while being able to stop and resume whenever we want! Thank you for the experience!

It was hot (33C) in Paris, which isn’t unusual. The buses were not air conditioned in the lower deck. Views are obstructed in some seats which are good for families by branding on the outside. If you’re riding the top deck prepare to get hot and pack a hat and sunscreen. Audio commentary was light on information and went to generic music much of the time. Very disappointing. For half the price, go and do the Bateaux Mouches. You see pretty much the same stuff and can figure out where to go pretty easily with apps to help you use the metro.

It is a terrible service, they stop constantly for no reason, it is extremely slow to complete a tour, they have no air conditioning, it is unbearable. Honestly, just pure frustrations with this company, besides not facing the problems. Honestly, disgusting. Old buses.

I have been on many bus tours and have to say that this is one, if not, the best your. We started our trip in Paris on the tour bus, and finished our trip to Paris the same way. To start, we rode the entire route then decided which attractions we wanted to jump off at on the next loop. The night tour is an excellent option and to see all the sites at night is incredible. The highlight of the night tour is definitely the twinkling lights of the Eiffel Tower. The Tower is always lit up at night, but you see thousands of twinkling lights start (on the hour) was a sight to behold.

Very punctual The friendly staff Earphone guide: fantastic - In the mother tongue Very flexible Welcoming and polished Very good tourist guide very clean bus Highly recommend - Must-see route everything is so well explained

Bus was 45 minutes late then dri er had a 10 minute break before we started trip. I have done a big bus tour before and thought I would try the toot bus. Big bus is better. Don't waste your money on toot.

The points of taking the bus are not clearly marked as in other European cities with tourist bus. Unable to find if you don’t take the downloaded app and spend your internet data and your mobile battery to reach those points. I don't recommend it.

The Day Tour is worth it. The Night Tour was ruined by one staff member who had no business dealing with customers. On Nov 9, 2025 around 5:45–6 PM, the man scanning tickets charged at my family out of nowhere and accused us of cutting the line — even though we were already near the end with only a couple families behind us. He pointed at my handicapped mother, raised his voice, and acted aggressive and disrespectful. He didn’t care she was in a wheelchair/walker. His attitude was hostile, unnecessary, and absolutely unacceptable. He refused to give his name. I have his photo and will post it. Someone like that should not be the face of a major tour company. Thankfully, another Tootbus staff member saw the situation and immediately opened the handicap entrance for us—exactly what should have been done from the start. That second staff member handled things correctly.. So clearly the rude one just chose to act this way. He refused to give his name. I have his photo and will post it so management can deal with him. No customer—especially a disabled one—should be treated like trash. The night views were nice, but that staff member ruined the experience. Tootbus needs to fix this asap!
