We purchased a 2-day pass w/ boat cruise, better price than other vendors. A voucher w/WR code was on my mobile phone. The QR code was scanned and tickets printed at boarding site. Others rcommented how "cheesy" the narration was. Parts were a bit silly but that did not take away from the beauty and history of the tour. Wait times were reasonable. If you secured an upper deck seat and want to keep it, ride the entire loop once before hopping off. Blue line tour not running at this time.

A ver tengo dos opiniones contradictorias, el primer big bus que cogimos mi familia y yo fue un desastre, conductor prepotente, desagradable, no hablaba ni español , ni ingles, pero ni dos palabras, solo francés y de mala manera , fue muy desagradable, además no paro en las paradas indicadas y estuvimos sin poder bajar del autobus 1 hora y media, no ponía las locuciones para saber de los monumentos, luego volvimos a subir en dos bus mas con otros conductores y fue genial

Let's see I have two contradictory opinions, the first big bus that my family and I took was a disaster, the driver was arrogant, unpleasant, he spoke neither Spanish nor English, but not two words, only French and in a bad manner, it was very unpleasant, Furthermore, I didn't stop at the indicated stops and we weren't able to get off the bus for 1 hour and a half. They didn't play the voiceovers to find out about the monuments. Then we got back on two more buses with other drivers and it was great.

Experiencia muy buena y muy práctica para turistas con pocos días en París ,para ubicarte y ver un poco todo.Muchos autobuses ,guía de audio interesante y en general muy recomendable .Un pero ,es que por obras cancelaron una parada y no avisaron en la que nos bajamos anterior y supuso un inconveniente .Aún así lo recomiendo. Translate this opinion into English.

Very good and very practical experience for tourists with only a few days in Paris, to get situated and see a little of everything. Many buses, interesting audio guide and in general highly recommended. One but, is that due to works they canceled a stop and did not notify the We got off earlier and it was an inconvenience. I still recommend it. Opinion translated. Show original.

Pues normal los conductores algunos muy antipáticos , te ayudaban bastante poco, las paradas no avisa nadie con lo cual es un poco lioso bajar y volver a subir, la ruta es bonita y que hablen en español en el autobús punto a favor , asientos cómodos . Pero bueno a sido buena experiencia Translate this opinion into English.

Well, normally, the drivers, some of them very unfriendly, helped you very little, no one warns you about the stops, which makes it a bit confusing to get off and get back on, the route is beautiful and they speak Spanish on the bus, a plus point, comfortable seats. But it has been a good experience Opinion translated. Show original.

You can trust civitatis. We got more than one ticket here and it all worked great. The big bus is the company that has more vehicles in Paris, every 10 minutes you can catch a bus. The audio guide was nice, and the quality of the bus was also good. For us it was the best option. We spent a whole day travelling with big bus and had the best time. And Paris is AMAZING!

Fue una buena experiencia para darle una vuelta a paris ya que es una ciudad muy grande. La tome con crucero pero no me gusto la audiogia descargable Hago referencia a puntos mejorar ▪︎ las paradas del bus están poco señalizadas nos costó encontrarlas ▪︎ si o si debes ir a la parada 1 para canjear tu compra por os tickets electrónicos, sin ellos no podrás empezar tu recorrido, ni tomar el crucero ▪︎ por último en un bus que tomamos se cortaba la trasmisión del guiado en forma permanente Translate this opinion into English.

It was a good experience to tour Paris since it is a very large city. I took it with a cruise but I didn't like the downloadable audio guide. I refer to points to improve ▪︎ the bus stops are poorly signposted, it was difficult for us to find them ▪︎ yes or yes you must go to stop 1 to exchange your purchase for the electronic tickets, without them you will not be able to start your tour, or take the cruise ▪︎ finally, on a bus that we took, the transmission of the guide was permanently cut off Opinion translated.

El primer día cogimos un autobús viejo, sin aire acondicionado. A mediodía a pleno sol, fue una experiencia desagradable. El segundo día fue mejor. Más nuevo y con aire acondicionado. Si vas con niños, creo que un día es suficiente, porque también se cansan Translate this opinion into English.

The first day we took an old bus, without air conditioning. At midday in full sun, it was an unpleasant experience. The second day was better. Newer and air conditioned. If you go with children, I think one day is enough, because they also get tired Opinion translated. Show original.

Los paseos en bus han sido fantasticos. Dió para en 2 días ver los sitios más bonitos y emblemáticos de Paris. El paseo en barco en el Sena no lo pudimos hacer. Había muchísimas personas, las colas eran interminables y hubo un problema con canjear los tickets. No informan que hay que solicitar el ticket del barco antes. Por lo demás una buena experiencia. Translate this opinion into English.

The bus rides have been fantastic. It took 2 days to see the most beautiful and emblematic sites of Paris. We couldn't do the boat ride on the Seine. There were many people, the lines were endless and there was a problem with redeeming the tickets. They do not inform you that you have to request the boat ticket beforehand. Otherwise a good experience. Opinion translated. Show original.

La verdad es que el autobús muy bien, te van explicando todo en la audioguía, se te hace muy ameno y es una manera de conocer algo de París. Los autobuses pasan cada poco tiempo. Si he de poner un pero, es que los autobuses deberían de hacer el circuito en las dos direcciones, para que sea más cómodo el poder visitar los sitios y no tener que hacer todo el circuito. Translate this opinion into English.

The truth is that the bus is very good, they explain everything to you in the audio guide, it is very enjoyable and it is a way to get to know something about Paris. The buses run every so often. If I have to say a but, it is that the buses should do the circuit in both directions, so that it is more comfortable to visit the sites and not have to do the entire circuit. Opinion translated.

Llevan auriculares y puedes poner la explicación en 6 idiomas diferentes. La explicación es muy completa. Y puedes subir y bajar las veces que quieras. Translate this opinion into English.

Vale muchísimos la pena, muestran todos los puntos de interés con audio guía. Te permite bajarte a descubrir cada sitio a tu propio ritmo y luego retomar el viaje en el bus. Lo mejor fue el tour por el sena que complementa con otras vistas espectaculares. Translate this opinion into English.

It is worth a lot, they show all the points of interest with an audio guide. It allows you to get off to discover each site at your own pace and then resume the trip on the bus.

Recomiendo la experiencia para ver lo más importante de Roma, pasaban frecuentemente, pero podría ampliarse in poco la ruta hacia Moulin Rouge, Sacre Coeur, Roland Garros, etc. Ademas, en dos ocasiones modificaron la ruta sin avisar y sin saber por donde íbamos y cuando se recupería la misma. Translate this opinion into English.

I recommend the experience to see the most important parts of Rome, they passed frequently, but the route to Moulin Rouge, Sacre Coeur, Roland Garros, etc. could be extended a little. In addition, on two occasions they changed the route without warning and without knowing where we were going and when it would recover. Opinion translated. Show original.

Buena la experiencia. Excelente opción con niñ@s para hacerte una composición de lugar de la ciudad. Alguna de las calles por las que transcurre el recorrido cortadas por las obras pero totalmente subsanable. Algo negativo de la experiencia,en uno de los autobuses no funcionaban los audios. Sería muy positivo abrir otras líneas ya que la ciudad da opción a ello, ciudades mucho más pequeñas, como Lisboa, disponen de dos líneas. Translate this opinion into English.

Good experience. Excellent option with children to make a composition of a place in the city. Some of the streets through which the route passes have been cut by the works but totally rectifiable. Something negative about the experience, in one of the buses the audios did not work. It would be very positive to open other lines since the city gives them the option, much smaller cities, like Lisbon, have two lines. Opinion translated. Show original.

Depende del conductor. No nos quisieron coger el voucher de Civitatis en el bus, tuvimos que desplazarnos hasta la oficina en la parada uno y hacer cola para que nos cambiasen el bono por los tickets que emiten ellos. Autobuses ahí algunos bastante viejos Algunos conductores no deberían llevar un autobús. Es una actividad para ir con muuucho tiempo ya que se tarda mucho, si te lo venden como desplazamiento, la realidad es que no sale a cuenta por el tiempo que se tarda.

It depends on the driver. They didn't want to take the Civitatis voucher on the bus, we had to go to the office at stop one and wait in line for them to exchange the voucher for the tickets they issue. Buses there some quite old Some drivers shouldn't run a bus. It is an activity to go with a lot of time since it takes a long time, if they sell it to you as displacement, the reality is that it does not pay off for the time it takes.

El autobús resulta cómodo para ver París en uno o dos días, ya que para en los principales monumentos y pasa con bastante frecuencia, no hay que esperar casi nada. Solo tener en cuenta dos cosas: intentar subir en la parte de arriba, ya que desde abajo sólo vais a ver el tráfico. Y cuando validéis vuestro cupón en el autobús, el conductor os dará un ticket con un código QR, no lo tiréis, ya que es lo que debéis mostrar al subir al autobús. Translate this opinion into English.

The bus is comfortable to see Paris in one or two days, since it stops at the main monuments and passes quite frequently, there is almost no waiting. Just keep two things in mind: try to climb at the top, since from below you will only see the traffic. And when you validate your coupon on the bus, the driver will give you a ticket with a QR code, do not throw it away, since it is what you must show when getting on the bus. Opinion translated.
