Itinerary
Guests will enjoy seeing the famous Louvre palace. For centuries home to the kings and queens of France, the palace is now the most-visited art museum in the world. Our route will take us to view the famous glass pyramid and portions of the stunning architectural design, built over generations. An excellent stop for photos!
Place de la Concorde, revolution square. Opposite the Louvre we will visit the notorious site of the guillotine during the days of the revolution. Guests will see the place where many, including the king and queen, met their end.
Heavily damaged by a fire in 2019, Notre Dame Cathedral is now undergoing intensive reconstruction work. Still, it is possible to pass by to see the intricate stonework on the main facade and appreciate the beauty of the architecture.
Central islands where the city began. Our tour route will take us through different parts of the islands in the center of Paris where the first inhabitants settled more than 2,000 years ago.
In previous times Le Marais was a swampy area outside of Paris. Now it's a trendy and vibrant neighborhood. This will be our pit stop, with an opportunity to use the restroom and grab an optional coffee/snack from a local cafe.
This large glass-domed hall designed and built for the 1900 Exposition Universelle is one of the more striking features of the Paris skyline. It features a rotating selection of events and exhibitions and will be one of the features seen from our stop on the Pont Alexandre III.
Guests will enjoy scenic views of the famous river Seine. Our tour route will take us down onto the pathway adjacent to the river at several different points. Guests will see first hand the transformation underway as Paris converts more areas fo the city into green and pedestrian zones. These sections should be very fun for riding the electric scooters, with plenty of beautiful views of the city's architecture and bridges.
We begin and end our journey on the Left Bank (Rive Gauche) of Paris! The historic neighborhood holds some of the city's best views and historic sites and is the perfect jumping off point for our electric scooter tour.
Our route will begin with a trip through the winding old streets of Paris' Latin Quarter. The tour starts on a small and quiet street perfect for learning how to ride the scooter. Then, follow your guide as they lead you through a quiet section of the neighborhood to get down to the bike pathway and the first stop on the tour.
Our tour will stop for pictures and incredible views from Paris' most famous and iconic bridge. Here we will see views of the Eiffel tower, the gold dome of Napoleon's tomb, as well as the Grand Palais and Petit Palais.
The grand parkway of the historic fortress where the revolution began where today is housed the tomb of Napoleon with its majestic golden dome.
The most famous Impressionist art museum in the world, housed in a historic train station.

5.0/5 Stars – The Absolute Best Way to Experience Paris! If you are looking for a break from exhausting walking tours and stuffy tour buses, look no further than Badass Tours Paris. Booking an e-scooter tour with them was hands down the highlight of our entire trip to the City of Light! From the moment we met up, Mark and our guide Amir made safety and fun top priorities. Even if you've never stepped on an electric scooter before, which we hadn’t, they provide a thorough, patient training session before you hit the streets so you feel completely confident. Cruising past iconic landmarks like the Louvre, Notre-Dame, the Seine on two wheels is an adrenaline rush like no other. It lets you cover an incredible amount of ground effortlessly, all while catching incredible photo ops that you'd miss from a bus window. What truly sets Badass Tours apart, though, are the guides . Ours was an absolute blast—packed with fascinating historical facts, hilarious stories, and an infectious energy that kept the group smiling the entire time. Amis even shared a curated list of insider recommendations for food and spots to check out later in the trip. Whether you're traveling with family, teenagers, or just looking for a unique adventure, this is an absolute must-do in Paris. Fast, fun, informative, and unforgettable—we can't recommend them enough!
Amir and Toby, our tour guides, were wonderful! My daughter and I really enjoyed our experience, as not only was it fun, engaging, and informative but we felt safe. They explained how to ride the e-scooters in a safe manner and were always at the front and end of our line. I could not think of a better way to explore Paris. Thank you Amir and Toby for a fantastic experience!
We absolutely loved this tour! It was the most fun of all our tours throughout Europe and Japan! We loved the scooters and our guide, Amir, was outstanding! He was engaging and witty and informative and gave our small group the perfect blend of history and cool stories. We loved every minute of this tour and give it the highest recommendation for amazing things to do in Paris!
Jude was an amazing guide and my family had a blast on the e-scooters! It was the perfect way to get an overview of Paris! Jude even called ahead to a lovely cafe (Cafe Peloton) and we were able to order sandwiches/pastries/coffee for our lunch break. The food was ready by the time that we arrived. I can’t recommend this company and the tours highly enough!
Excellent option to see the highlights of Paris without the long walks and the stifling heat. Our guide Amir was the highlight of the tour!
¡Gracias por su amable reseña! Nos alegra mucho que haya disfrutado de nuestro recorrido. ¡Esperamos verle de nuevo!
We did the same tour last year with an older guy before the two companies merged. Last year, the tour was absolutely amazing. The guide was funny and full of historical and fun facts. We absolutely had a blast. We felt super safe, and I was very nervous about safety at the beginning. This year was different… our guide was Mark. I learned more about his personal life than about Paris. And no, his life wasn’t interesting at all. Cruising with teenagers, I was appalled by how unsafe and reckless he was on the e-scooter. He was doing acrobatics, checking his phone, texting, and talking while riding. Personally, I wouldn’t care, but it sets a horrible example for younger riders. We also ran two red lights, and yes, I was yelled at by an old guy who apparently had a green light and was obviously right. My husband fell behind multiple times, but the guide didn’t care about keeping an eye on us despite there being only four of us. I almost crashed because we made a sharp right turn onto an elevated sidewalk. Mark, obviously an experienced rider, didn’t think to take an easier approach, so my scooter lost balance on a curb, and I almost fell. I was riding right behind Mark, and I had to ask him to give us earlier warning signs when we were stopping or slowing down. His response was, “I know what I’m doing.” Mine was, “Sorry, but I need more response time because I don’t.” Obviously, I didn’t want to rear-end him. Also, I wasn’t impressed with him insisting on a forced lunch at a café of his choice, which he was clearly getting kickbacks from. The food was mediocre at best, so come without lunch, as we happened to be that day. To be fair, my husband didn’t do the tour with us last year, and he liked it a lot. Probably because he didn’t know any better. They also shortened the tour compared to last year, which was very disappointing. The bottom line is, request a tour with the older guy who is amazing. You will have an amazing time, and your kids will have a blast while riding safely and learning tons and way more photo ops.
Hi Nika, Thank you for leaving us a review, our guests' feedback is always important to us. We are so sorry that you didn't enjoy our tour experience and that your expectations were not met. We must assure you however that the safety of our guests is our most important concern. It is true that the tour has changed somewhat since you took it the first time. Some changes to the tour route were necessary from both a logistical and safety standpoint. Again, we apologize for any disappointment but we feel the updated route is both safer and more fun for our guests. Please also understand that while we do not permit our guides to use their phones for personal reasons while leading a tour, some communications with our home office and with the cafe are necessary for the continuity of the tour. We do stop briefly at a cafe to take a short break and give our guests the opportunity to use the restroom and get a drink or a snack if they want to, however the purchase of any food or drinks is completely voluntary and optional, which we are very transparent about. Again, we're sorry that our tour experience did not meet your expectations. We truly want each of our guests to have an amazing and fun time and if that ever isn't the case we certainly want to know what we can do to improve our tour. Thanks again for your feedback and we would invite you to consider giving us another try next time you're visiting Paris so we can have another opportunity to have fun on a tour together! Best wishes - BATP.
Absolutely wonderful! Our guide was extraordinarily knowledgeable on all the sights and landmarks. He tailored to our interests. I had never been on an electric scooter in a very busy city but with our tour guide’s instructions I felt very safe. (I doubt I would have felt that way without our guide Rory!) Kudos to a great “mamager”!
Thanks Janet! We appreciate your kind words and feedback. We are so happy that you enjoyed the experience and felt safe riding the electric scooters, even in a busy city like Paris. Thank you for the lovely review and please come back and see us again!
Super way to see central Paris.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed our tour! Please come back and see us again next time you're in Paris!
This tour was amazing! This tour was recommended to me by a friend, so I had expectations before the start. But the tour went above my expectations! The ride was fun and the stories where very cool! Our tourguide Mark was amazing! You could ask any question and knows the best photospots. If you feel unsure about riding the scooter. The little intro before the tour is great! I would recomment doing this your first day in the city! It helps you navigate the city and Mark has too much recommendations for you to try in a lifetime
Hey Emma! Thank you so much for the amazing review! It's so awesome that you found out about our tour from a word of mouth recommendation from your friend. We're glad we lived up to and exceeded you expectations ;) We absolutely love hearing such great feedback from our guests and we are beyond thrilled that you had such a fun time on our tour! Thank you for coming out and giving us a try on your friend's recommendation and thank you again for the wonderful review. We really appreciate it!
What an amazing experience! Jude was such a friendly guide and a total fountain of knowledge. We learnt so many cool facts & stories about Paris and its history, whilst zooming around on the scooters. It was just our family on the tour and our teenage daughters said it was one of the best things they’ve ever done! The three hours flew by; there was a comfort stop during the tour (shout out to the pelaton cafe for insanely delicious filled croissants on our break. So good! ) and Jude took our safety seriously throughout so we felt like we were in good hands. Thank you for making the whole experience so enjoyable. It’s a memory we’ll treasure. We would highly recommend this company to others wanting a fun but informative way of exploring some Parisian highlights.
Hey Emily! Thank you so much for writing such a fantastic review! We absolutely love hearing great feedback from our guests and we are thrilled that you and your family had such a good time on our tour. Thank you for choosing us and we hope to see you back again next time!
