Great Getaway Day Trip From Paris!
btkahuna, Dec 2024
Fantastic tour and guide! We didn’t have much time because we were in Paris for the Olympics. We wanted to visit both Omaha Beach & Mount St Michel on the same day. This was the only company I could find that did both. It was a luxury vehicle and our group of four felt like rock stars! Highly recommended!
Spent a whole lot of money for not a very good experience!
Linda_R, Dec 2024
I had paid for and expected a personal guided trip in a luxury car. We ended up with a tour guide who had only been in Paris for 7 months. All the questions we asked her she could not answer. It was a most disappointing and disheartening trip.
Rushed, but a great experience
kearstonandrews, Dec 2024
Was a rush visit, could’ve spent all day at each location, but it was better to see each for a little bit rather than not at all. It was a great experience, would love to go back. Tour guide Emily was very sweet and accommodating. Driver Alex did a great job getting us there and back.
Normandy and Mont st-Michel in a day
Abha_S, Dec 2024
It is a long trip covering both places. Our driver and guide were excellent.
We spent just enough time in Normandy to see the main sites and we were off to mont saint michel.
Here we had time for lunch and visit the abbey at leisure. We did not spend time walking on the beach as we were not prepared.
We came in a Tesla, so about 25 minutes were needed each way to charge the car.
Unprepared and unprofessional
Craig_P, Dec 2024
Tour Up in Europe is a very unprepared and unprofessional guide service, which you should only use if you do not want to receive the tour you purchased. We booked the Normandy tour on the 80th anniversary of D-DAY; however, the company did not attain the required permit to visit the historical sites on the anniversary. The other tour operators were able to provide their clients the experience of visiting on the 80th anniversary as they had attained the proper permit, which was clearly posted on the Normandy website stating tour operators needed the pass. Long story short, ten hours in a car and unable to experience the historic celebration that we signed up for.
