Reviews for Paris Tootbus Discovery Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour
Tour Bus Fail

The app is terrible and timing is unreliable. You are not able to see buses in real time. I would weigh your options between Toot and Big Bus
Broken headphone system
Lila_S
The headphones didn’t work so I tried new headphones and various places in the bus. It is the system. Some seats work better then others but all broken of one extend or another. Total scam for the price. Not good
Bit of a waste of €30
W3853VFdeborahk
Great way to see a lot of things from a double decker bus, but if you are English don’t expect much from the audio guide. There was more about jogging than the actual sights we were passing. Ended up googling everything. Would have been better on a blue route bus and a day ticket and using my phone, which I ended up doing anyway.

Toot bus is very flexible, one can use the different stops to take pictures or visit Paris highlights.
Bus drivers and employees are very friendly and helpful.
Slow, unreliable and very expensive.
E740LYdavidh
It was so slow and unreliable that we only managed a few stops. It’s a very expensive way to see Paris. Walking or the metro is much quicker and cheaper.
