By vehicle

What a Paris private tour looks like, listing by listing

Twelve listings, five kinds of vehicle, one on foot and one on the water.

Vintage cars. Four listings. The $144 2CV drive is sold as the not-so-typical alternative to a group tour, 1 to 3 hours, and it carries 744 reviews at 4.9 — nearly twice the count of any other private listing here. The two-hour classic sites tour in a 2CV with the roof rolled back ($259, 4.7 across 202) runs the Champs-Élysées, the Arc de Triomphe, the Louvre pyramid and the Opéra Garnier. The Citroën DS with its convertible roof is 1 to 3 hours for $240 (4.8 across 124), and the classic convertible is two hours past the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Sacré Coeur, Invalides and Notre-Dame for $334 (4.9 across 218).

Tuk-tuks. Three. The electric tuk-tuk is private, 2 to 8 hours from $261 with a local driver, 4.9 across 259. The 2-, 4- or 6-hour private tuk-tuk from $257 covers the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe and the Louvre and extends into the Latin Quarter, Montmartre or the Marais (4.7 across 163). The three-hour grand monuments tour by tuk-tuk — Champs-Élysées, Moulin Rouge, Notre-Dame — is $400 with 29 reviews at 4.7.

The rest. A limousine by day or night, one hour, $290 (4.9 across 120). A vintage motorcycle sidecar, two hours, $418, rated 5.0 but on 20 reviews. A private boat on the Seine with Champagne, 1.5 hours, $445, 5.0 across 403. A private walk of the highlights built around your schedule, three hours, $531 (4.7 across 28). And the seven-hour customisable day with a personal guide, $814, 5.0 across 38 reviews.

Which one to book

Choosing a Paris private tour by who is coming and how long

Every figure is the listing’s own.

  • You are two people and want the photo

    The $144 2CV drive or the $334 convertible: the convertible listing is written around getting pictures of you in the car, the 2CV around ditching the group tour. The 2CV has 744 reviews to the convertible’s 218; both are rated 4.9.

  • You are a group of friends

    The tuk-tuks. The electric one runs 2 to 8 hours from $261 with a local driver; the 2-, 4- or 6-hour listing from $257 lets you add Montmartre or the Marais to the monuments.

  • You have one hour

    The limousine: $290 for an hour by day or night, 4.9 across 120 reviews. Nothing else here is shorter.

  • You want the whole day organised

    The customisable full day at $814: seven hours, a personal guide and an itinerary you set, rated 5.0 across 38 reviews. The three-hour private walk at $531, built around your schedule, is the same idea in a shorter frame.

  • You want the river, not the road

    The private Seine cruise with Champagne: 1.5 hours for $445, 5.0 across 403 reviews, a small boat and the lights of the city. It is the best reviewed listing here after the 2CV drive. The other private boats are on the Seine cruise page.

  • You want something nobody else has booked

    The sidecar: $418 for two hours on a vintage motorcycle, rated 5.0 — but on 20 reviews, which is the smallest sample on this page. The three-hour tuk-tuk monuments tour ($400, 29 reviews) is in the same position.

Every trip, current fare

The honest answer

Is a Paris private tour worth the money?

Five of the twelve have more than 200 reviews; those five set the price of a sure thing.

Against the shared sightseeing tours on this site, a Paris private tour costs between seven and forty times the $20 Seine cruise. What you are buying is the vehicle, the driver and the empty seats: nobody else’s photo stop, nobody else’s route. The listings that have earned that price with reviews are the 2CV drive (744 at 4.9), the Champagne boat (403 at 5.0), the electric tuk-tuk (259 at 4.9), the convertible (218 at 4.9) and the classic 2CV tour (202 at 4.7).

Four listings have fewer than 40 reviews: the sidecar, the tuk-tuk monuments tour, the private walk and the full day. Their ratings are high, 4.7 to 5.0, but the samples are small, and a 5.0 across 20 reviews is a promising start rather than a proven product.

The cheapest way in is the $144 2CV, which is also the one with the most evidence behind it. Start there unless the group size or the hour count rules it out.

Common questions

Paris private tour, answered

How much does a Paris private tour cost?

From $144 for a 1-to-3-hour private drive in a vintage 2CV to $814 for a seven-hour customisable day with a personal guide. The tuk-tuks start at $257, the limousine is $290 for an hour, and the private Champagne cruise is $445.

Which private tour has the most reviews?

The 2CV drive, 744 reviews at 4.9. The private Champagne cruise is next with 403 at 5.0, then the electric tuk-tuk with 259 at 4.9 and the convertible with 218 at 4.9.

Can the route be changed?

On three listings by design: the 2-, 4- or 6-hour tuk-tuk extends into the Latin Quarter, Montmartre or the Marais; the private walk is built around your schedule and rhythm; the full day is sold as a customised itinerary with your own guide. The classic 2CV tour and the convertible describe a fixed set of monuments.

How long is a private tour of Paris?

One hour for the limousine, 1.5 for the Champagne boat, two for the convertible, the sidecar and the classic 2CV tour, 1 to 3 for the DS and the discovery 2CV, 2 to 8 for the electric tuk-tuk, and seven for the full day.

Which private tours run after dark?

The limousine is sold by day or night, and the private Champagne cruise is written around the sights and lights of the city from a small boat. The other listings do not say, so check the start times on the listing itself.

What do the private car tours actually drive past?

The listings name the Champs-Élysées, the Arc de Triomphe, the Louvre pyramid and the Opéra Garnier for the classic 2CV tour, and the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Sacré Coeur, Invalides and Notre-Dame for the convertible. The DS and discovery 2CV listings describe monuments and photo stops without naming a fixed route.
