Our guide was excellent and kind. When we got off the bus we could not find our guide. Very poor organization. Most trips have your guide waiting for you. We looked for our guide for 10 mi utes . She (Read More)had no identifiable clothing or a sign. We found her by accident.Our GUide was excellent. The FAULT was totally with the TOUR PRIVIDER. We could have used more time for the gardens.

Once paid, received digital voucher that you show at the meeting point. Tour guide was good. Explained a lot of the history. Bus was good but some minor trash left behind. Ride took about 30 minutes. (Read More)Time was not long enough to see gardens on your own if you take a restroom break and window shop the souvenirs. They have a Ladurée macarons shop on the premises. Arrive early or you will miss the whole excursion. They depart on time. Meet at the bus on time also or miss the ride back!

I forget the name of our tour guide, but he was extremely knowledgeable and spoke at least four languages on that day. He was very patient, because people were arriving late and meeting up in the midd (Read More)le of his explaining something to us. It was freezing cold that day, but he kept calm and friendly and was that way through the entire tour.
