Best Way to See Paris!!
Probably the best way to see Paris! Simon (the owner) is not only the physical embodiment of hospitable tourism, he’s also a total dreamboat 😍. Every thing was super easy from booking to meeting up, and the staff are AMAZING, we got really lucky with the weather, but even if it’s cold or rainy they have all the gear necessary to keep you toasty as a fresh pain au chocolate! SUCH a GREAT way to see Paris! Plus you kind of feel like a star because everyone smiles and waves at motorcycle sidecars 🤩
Operator response
Wow thanks so much! I'm blushing!
We hope to be able to host you again one day. Safe travels!

Amazing!
This tour is SO cool!! We had 3 adults and two 10 year old girls, who absolutely loved it! Our tour guides were super knowledgeable and accommodating. My adult son had a broken leg, with a knee scooter. Someone picking it up at the meeting point, and walked it to the Eiffel Tower, because that’s where we wanted to be dropped off. If you’re going to Paris, you need to do this! You won’t be disappointed.
Operator response
Thanks so much Tiffany! Your review of our Paris Sidecar Tour is excellent, and much appreciated! The whole team at Txango Tours wishes a speedy recovery for your son and safe travels for everyone!

Highlight of Paris trip
Fidel and his friend were amazing. The team was on time and, very kind and very polite.
They took us around Paris and told us known and some unknown stories of each place we visited.
Fidel also took amazing pictures of my family at each site.
Also recommended places to eat and things to do while in Paris.
My family had an amazing time on this tour and it will be the highlight of our trip here in Paris.
Thank you for sharing about your beautiful city

Super Cool!
This was hands down the best outing we took during our time in Paris - we got a behind the scenes look at the city that we would never have been able to do on our own. Even the teenagers were impressed! Our tour guides Steven & Batiste were very knowledgeable and took us through some of the lesser known areas, even pulling over so that my son could get a crepe :) Highly recommend this tour!

Thank you for reviewing your sidecar tour of Paris with us! Safe travels and all the best!!

Monuments tour - Paris
This was our the kick-off to our first morning in Paris. Four of us (two adults, two kids, 9 and 13). It was absolutely fantastic. Not only would I recommend it, I could certainly have kept going beyond the two hours. Simon and Fidel were fun, incredibly knowledgeable and informative and so personable. Our time spent with you was so perfect. Merci beaucoup. Mille fois.
Operator response
Oh gosh, right back atcha!! You and your children were so fun to have on our Paris sidecar tour!! I hope your flight home went well and hopefully we’ll cross paths again. All the best from me and Fidel!

Fun tour, to repeat.
the tour was excellent, guide Simon was very friendly and careful. He showed us the downtown Monuments and came to find us at the Hotel. He tried hard to speak in Spanish. It was a lot of fun. Thank you very much.
To repeat!.

Must do!!!
We took our parents (in their mid 80s) on this tour. The guides were so great and prepared for anything that traffic and pouring rain only made the experience more fun and memorable. Wonderful experience!
