I've been to Paris many times but took the kids first time so booked the tour. It's well worth it and they give you relevant information on the audio guides. It's not a history lesson it's a tour bus. I've no idea why people are complaining about it. It was enough to keep the kids interested without overwhelming them. They're usually rolling their eyes at me when I "lecture" them on too much history lol The audio guide also includes multiple walking tours which I thought was fantastic. Also for people complaining about the audio jot working it clearly says to report it using the qr code and you can just download their app and use your own headphones so it shouldn't be such an issue.
They tell you to get out your cameras when you get near a photo worthy spot and the driver made sure he turned the bus round multiple times so there was plenty opportunity to make videos and take pics of each special site. It also wasn't as repetitive as previous tours I've taken, we only went round Place de la Concorde twice and they had different info to keep you entertained each time.
It was really busy we went over the Xmas hols but there were frequent buses and we easily found space on the top deck each time although I was grateful for the ones that were covered on top because it was absolutely freezing!
It's a fantastic way to get around Paris which is a big city and they covered all the museums and main sites. Stops were at very convenient places except for the notre dame one. We didn't get off there though. I will def buy from them again when needed.
