I loved this tour and the people on it sm <3 It was fast paced, wish we had a bit more time in Paris or arrived the day before the tour to get to see more of it. Wish we had a bit more time at Mt. stain Michele to be able to explore all of the streets and check out the shops. The drive times were not too long, perfect for a power nap which were needed after late nights chatting with new friends. Overall, I had an amazing time and met such amazing people!
