“This was so much fun! Our tour guide, Rory, was fantastic. He made the tour! He was knowledgable and presented the history in an easy and digestable way. We were upgraded to the small group tour so got to tour the king's apartment which was an added bonus. That made the day long but well worth it. I would highly recommend this tour and ask for Rory!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 1,269 reviews · 12 hours - 750 minutes · from $127

Review of the Loire Valley castles day trip from Paris, with Chambord, Chenonceau, Cheverny, transport, timing, cost, and practical tips.

“I liked the excursion very much, the Loire valley castles are beautiful! The driver was super! The bus was clean and neat. The only thing that I didn’t like was that the guides didn’t explain much during the travel between the castles. I am sure there is a lot of history and legends that they can share and make the long hours in travelling more enjoyable and interesting.”

Review of the Versailles full-day tour from Paris, with coach transport, timed palace entry, audio guide, gardens, value, and practical tips.

“Absolute shambles!! All was well before pick up. Got the tickets from the rep and then the bus came. Single seats available only so we sat split up. On the bus, a carryon of sorting tickets for those who had not got them. Off the bus we were instructed to get in a line, ‘a straight line!!’, which disintegrated as we went through bag check. When the line was reforming, other people joined it and they were told to move by the guides. Understandably these people were not going to move to let others in and basically stand behind a bus load of people. Some of us had 11.30 and…”

Review of Lisbon’s Sintra day trip with Pena Palace, Cabo da Roca, and Cascais, including timing, value, guides, and practical tips.

“This was a great tour! We considered just taking the train from Lisbon and doing Sintra and the palace on our own - I’m so glad we decided not to take that option. Instead we had a comfortable van take us directly to the palace (otherwise you have to take a separate bus after the train) and our driver walked us through the palace and told us all about it. He also made recommendations on where to eat and shop in town. We also loved Cascais and Cabo de Roca which we would have missed on our own. The driver was very friendly and informative, answering all our questions. We…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 272 reviews · from $130

Review of Beijing’s private day tour to Tiananmen, Forbidden City, and Summer Palace, with lunch, guide, transport, and practical tips.

“We had an outstanding tour in Beijing with our guide, Peter, and we can’t recommend him enough! Our itinerary included Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and the Summer Palace, and Peter ensured that every part of the experience was seamless and memorable. From the start, Peter impressed us with his professionalism. He and the driver arrived a few minutes early to pick us up in a clean, comfortable car, which set the tone for the day. At Tiananmen Square, we avoided the long lines thanks to his certification as an official guide, saving us valuable time. Once inside, Peter’s deep knowledge truly stood out—he gave us detailed insights into the…”

It is every bit 8 hours or more by the time we got to the main palace of Versailles we didn’t want to spend much time there. However we spent just enough time and the headed out and back to Paris. I highly recommend this tour if you are active.”

Knossos Palace & Heraklion Full-Day Tour from Chania Area

11.Knossos Palace & Heraklion Full-Day Tour from Chania Area

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 235 reviews · 9 - 11 hours · from $57

Visit Knossos, Heraklion, and its archaeological museum on a guided day trip from Chania, with coastal views, free time, and hotel pickup.

“Great trip. We had good experience overall. Guides were great. It will be good if you have extra 1hr at Heraklion. Better have just 10-15mins at rest stops, so more time can be spent in Heraklion. We were back in Chania at 18:30, hence extra hour should be fine. From the description of the activity, you are under the impression that the 2hr free time at Heraklion are done after the archeological museum and that the guide will be with you there. That is not the case. You have to try and fit roaming the city, check the port, center, shops, grab something to eat and check the museum for…”
