London & Paris Holiday

Eiffel Tower tour and dinner.

Tour was perfect for my husband and I. We enjoyed the sites and also that were had free time in each city! Most memorable moment was dinner in the Eiffel Tower.

Dinner at the Eiffel Tower

Loved the effiel tower. The dinner was wonderful. Also the riverboat tour was great . The London Eye was very memorable.

Eiffel tower dinner

Dinner at the Eiffel Tour.

Everything was wonderful. The tour guides were professional, personable and knowledgeable. Accommodations were to my liking. The inclusions were exciting: Buckingham palace, Kensington palace, the gardens, the parks and city squares, the river boat rides, bridges, the pubs and restaurants, the London Eye, palace of Versailles, Notre Dame, the Eiffel Tower, the food tasting, the bakery tour. Wonderful!!!

Harrison was great as guide but I think you should include a few more things in the tour. we had quite a bit of free time and for the cost of trip compared to other tours it seemed it was very expensive but less inclusions which I’m guessing was the cost of the hotels.

It was a trip of a lifetime. My Mom and I took this trip and it was fantastic. Our London hotel room was small but overall we made it work. There were so many amazing things we saw and toured in London. The London Eye was awesome The train ride to Paris was great. Our hotel room was much bigger than London and the breakfast was so much better. Paris was amazing. Seeing the Eiffel tower was cool especially at night. The dinner we had at the restaurant at the Eiffel tower was not that great. But cool to have dinner there maybe should provide more options besides Veal. I enjoyed our free time to explore. Paris my Mom and I took a free day to walk Paris and shop. We really enjoyed the bakery tour and the optional extra event the Cabaret show with dinner and drinks. It was an amazing show. Overall we enjoyed this trip so much. And our tour manager Urban was fantastic he was so knowledgeable. We had a group of 42 which were from all over the US and we met some great people and now friends. I highly recommend this trip.

Paris was so much fun! I loved the baroque musical performance, the Eiffel Tower, the Palace of Versailles, the small marketplaces, Urban our guide did an amazing job of immersing us in the local culture and history. The bakery experience was amazing and so much fun! England was wonderful as well but we missed the highlights that I was really looking forward to experiencing we missed both castle tours because of the protests and the president of the US being in-town. We were staying in the theater district and were able to see Back to the Future musical. (The biggest negative was the hotel wouldn’t let us into our rooms until 4 pm and we had to wait all day after traveling for 24 hours.) other than the exhausting day waiting for our room the trip was amazing!

Missed luncheon at Kensington Place. Very Disappointed. Gardens were to long. Urban made the tour memorable.

Harrison Trott, our tour manager, was the absolute best! He made the entire tour seamless and without drama. I can't recommend him enough.

Our group was too big in size… 43 people. London was more enjoyable than Paris.

Seeing all the sights in London, eating dinner at the Eiffel Tower was a highlight. The extension to Amsterdam could have had a few more planned activities. Luckily our tour manager from home had pre-planned activities for us so that we did not have so much free time.

The tour was well planned with a lot of free time that was a nice touch. I've been to both cities multiple times. So the most memorable experience I had were trips I took by myself. However, I should correct that to say I really enjoyed the Kensington Palace tour. I learned a lot about Queen Victoria that put her in a new light in my estimation.

This tour was wonderful! The hotels were great! The tours were amazing! Colette took care of everything! The tour guides were outstanding! I highly recommend this trip for first timers and for return visitors!

Dinner in the Eiffel Tower, Versailles, Buckingham Palace, Notre Dame- all the highlights. Wonderful guide and local guides. Loved being near Coventry gardens in London. Enjoyed going to the cheese museum in Paris.

Harrison was awesome

I was very satisfied with both pre-trip arrangements by Collette and especially with the tour manager, Harrison. He was very efficient and made sure everyone had a good time and saw many highlights of both cities.

All of the guides were excellent.

The catacombs of Paris

Harrison Trott was wonderful!! So knowledgeable about both cities. He was patient with everyone every step of the way! Very professional!! I was impressed with the tour options to choose from and really enjoyed all the remarkable people we met in our group!! I would definitely use Collette again!! Thank you!!

So many great memories even for repeat visitor to both London and Paris. Our tour manger, Harrison, was absolutely wonderful and very knowledgeable. Hotels were in great locations with easy access to the underground and tube. Rooms and bathrooms were spacious for ‘European’ hotels and the included breakfasts offered a huge range of options. City tours included the ‘best’ of both cities, inclusive dinners were appetizing with large portions. Evening at the cabaret was very entertaining. Free time allowed adequate time to tour the Louvre, attend a musical, and shopping. River Seine cruise and dinner at the Eiffel Tower was amazing and the perfect farewell. Purchased transportation package made the whole trip totally stress free with airport and hotel transfers top notch.

Eating in tower

1. The tour manager Dorine Gracin was the best. She did a tremendous job helping us with our next adventure. She did a fabulous job all around. She helped other guest as well.

Great tour! Hotels in great locations. Seeing the Eiffel Tower at night in Lights!

The antique cars and dinners were what I enjoyed.

Over all the tour was very enjoyable. I loved the “High Tea” we had in London . The tour with the little cars as we toured the lights of Paris was definitely a highlight and very memorable. All of our dinners were simply divine. The choice of restaurants were great. While in London during our free time we were able to see the musical Tina. It was spectacular and with the help of our tour guide manager we were able to secure tickets with great seats. Meeting the cast afterwards was the cherry on top to make it a life time memory.

Our tour guide, Maher, was great! He was knowledgeable about the areas and he gave good suggestions on what to do in our free time. One of my favorite things was riding the bullet train. I had never been on one before. I loved all the old buildings. Tea time was very nice. I loved dining in the Eiffel Tower. I feel like I got my money’s worth and am ready to book my next adventure!

Everything

Our tour manager was terrific. All but one local guide were as well. The trip has a good balance of scheduled time and free time. We saw highlights of both cities and included meals were great. I was not expecting much from this trip and was very pleasantly surprised. I would recommend this tour to people like us who have not seen either city and would like to. It’s a great overview of both.

Very organized the trip included good food and experiences for the area’s visited. Our tour guide was great!

Our days were filled with memorable events, not just tours of sites. Going to a French bakery for a baking lesson was fun and informative. The baker made the whole experience with his stories. Quite unexpected. Tour guide, Mimma, couldn’t have done a better job. She was thorough, considerate, friendly and available.
