Definitely recommend for something different.Griffin RenkerGriffin Renker ★★★★★ We had an absolute blast riding around Paris with Praveen! Highly recommend.Kanya BalakrishnaKanya Balakrishna ★★★★★ Our tour with Simon was the highlight of our perfect long weekend in Paris! The experience itself was magical: we loved riding on the motorcycle and in the sidecar and felt like we had an infinitely better grasp of Paris (its history, geography, culture, food) by the end. But Simon (who is a history buff and very experienced tour guide) made it utterly memorable. He is so kind and full of information and stories – and, at every stop, he would take us back in time, connect dots to things we had seen/heard before, and share about his life and what it is like to live in Paris. We can't recommend this tour enough... worth every penny!! (Oh, and at the end of our tour – which happened to be on a perfect sunny day – Simon gave us recommendations for where to find bread/meat/cheese... and we had the best picnic in front of the Eiffel Tour! A perfect ending to a wonderful experience!)Kerry CashmanKerry Cashman ★★★★★ This was the highlight of our trip! It was an amazing experience. Safe and educational and so much fun! It is a MUST! And don’t do just any tour - you have to do the Txango Tour!Meagan ConradMeagan Conrad ★★★★★ This was such a fantastic outing in Paris! Our kids loved it and wished we had time for a second tour on our trip. It was such a fun way to cover a lot of the city in a few hours and neat to stop and learn along the way. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Paris. Simon was so easy to work with while booking and planning our tour. We can’t wait to return and check out the other tours on the menu!!!Regina RyanRegina Ryan ★★★★★ Fantastic experience and the perfect way to experience Paris. Highly recommend. The kids really enjoyed it (ages 11am 13) they were wowed!!!Erika OelkersErika Oelkers ★★★★★ Fantastic tour of Paris. Highly recommendK ZasuK Zasu ★★★★★ Excellent tour!!! The guides, Simon and Pravin, were well-informed and fun as well. Definitely a must if you're looking for a non-traditional way to see and experience Paris.Allyson FrazierAllyson Frazier ★★★★★ Amazing way to see the city! Great guides with lots of interesting info about each stop. Don’t miss it!J GrovesJ Groves ★★★★★ Our family had such a great experience with Simon and Txango! We went on BOTH the Vice & Violence Monmartre tour AND the all day champagne tour of Versailles. It was super fun, exciting for our teenage kids, and really confortable. On our Versailles day, it was raining and Simon tucked all of us in on the bikes and dude cars with blankets and gave us ponchos for the tour, we were warm and toasty and having a blast despite the rain. Lunch was fabulous, and my high school aged daughter learned a LOT. Her words- “if Sinon was my history teacher I would actually pay attention” ! Turns out he has a masters degree and was fantastic at explaining several hundreds of years of history while driving a motorcycle through Paris in the rain abd and pointing out monuments as well as little known interesting obscure spots that were fascinating and funny. We highly recommend his company for both adults and kids, they were exciting trips with something for everyone- we wont forget them!lynbestlynbest ★★★★★ What a fun tour we had this morning!! Our tour guide had wonderful stories at each stop, this city has such a great history and characters. We felt so safe on the busy roads in the gorgeous Royal Enfield Sidecar. Loved every minute of the tour. Do yourself a favour and book a tour.Alexandra DumenigoAlexandra Dumenigo ★★★★★ It was awesome! Simon knew a lot about each of the destinations on the tour and was happy to answer all the questions we had. The tour itself was lovely and very scenic. It was very fun and Simon was very charismatic.Holland HamerHolland Hamer ★★★★★ AMAZING.. very nice people and great way to your Paris and it's historical areas.Lauren HamerLauren Hamer ★★★★★ Fun way to see the city!! You get to see a lot of different sites and it’s very informative!!Gail BoisclairGail Boisclair ★★★★★ Txango Tours provides the most informative, fun tours in Paris! I highly recommend them! Thank you, Simon and team, for another wonderful experience!!David BirnbaumDavid Birnbaum ★★★★★ We had a great time with our 3 and 5 year old. Simon is a great guide and storyteller.Robbie AshtonRobbie Ashton ★★★★★ Only in Paris for 3 days, so I was looking for something to cover a lot of ground in a short amount of time. Simon's tour was easily the best I've taken across all my trips.You get to move weave through the city far quicker than a car, while being able to say bounjor to locals crossing the street. I booked on a chiller day and Simon had a pullover and blanket, along with plenty of off-the-beaten-path places to explore.Shay Watkins GibsonShay Watkins Gibson ★★★★★ What a perfect way to see Versailles in the fall!! My mom and I had a fabulous 1/2 day tour with Simon. Driving to/from Versailles was great and everything we saw was fantastic. Book a tour with Simon - he's fun and knows so much about Versailles!Gerry LGerry L ★★★★★ I arranged my Txango Paris Monuments sidecar tour for the last afternoon of my time in Paris so that I would have something to look forward to before the long flight home. I enjoyed the anticipation, and now I can look back on a thrilling ride around the city I love. Oh, and show off my photos to friends.Simon is a great guide and a skillful driver. I never felt fearful as we zipped around the street surrounded by cars. Although I have been visiting Paris for more than 50 years, Simon introduced me to a few areas I had never explored and recounted stories I had not previously heard. And, of course, I saw the city from a whole new vantage point.I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to see Paris in a new way.Jessica HammerJessica Hammer ★★★★★ My husband and I had a fantastic time on Simon's Off the Beaten Path tour. His sidecar is beautiful and so much fun to ride around Paris in. We were the envy of everyone! We not only got to see lots of beautiful and unique sites around Paris, but learned so many fun stories from Simon - both about the past and about life as it is now in Paris. I would highly recommend these sidecar tours to anyone visiting Paris and I can't wait to come back to take more of Simon's tours.Eric GruppEric Grupp ★★★★★ Prior to taking a bus tour of France, we arrived early in Paris and took the Off the Beaten Path Tour of the city with Simon—who proved to be perfectly bilingual, extremely well acquainted with the city, an expert motorcyclist, an experienced tour guide, and very personable. In short, he was the ideal guide for a sidecar tour. Having other plans to see the usual Parisian highlights, we chose this tour to see a different aspect of the city. And we were not disappointed. A sudden transit strike caused a bit of traffic congestion, but Simon expertly skirted most tie-ups and kept us on track. As a motorcyclist myself, I did something I’d never done before: sat behind another driver. My wife took the sidecar slot, and my 70-year old muscles proved surprisingly up to the task of holding on as we zipped around the city from late afternoon until early evening. We had a blast. Well worth the money…and we did it just a few hours after our arrival, complete with jet lag! This is a tour that will keep you awake and exhilarated, all in the company of a host who checks all the boxes. Highly recommended!Edgar Allan TohEdgar Allan Toh ★★★★★ The most memorable tour of Paris you will ever experience.If you are a frequent visitor to Paris, seeing the City of Light from a different angle is a view you must experience.If you are a first time visitor to Paris, this is an experience you will never forget.Simon is such a great tour guide. He is entertaining and extremely knowledgeable.This tour is the one you will be talking about over and over again bragging to your friends and family.MarcMarc ★★★★★ This is absolutely the BEST way to see Paris. Simon knows his history and knows how to navigate through the streets of Paris so you get to see and learn about this interesting, historical, ribald, city.Amy KlucherAmy Klucher ★★★★★ What an incredible tour! When I heard about Txango Tours, I knew that I wanted to book a tour for our next trip to Paris. It was easily the best part of our trip! Even though this wasn't our first trip to Paris, and we had visited some of the sites previously, this was such a unique way to see the main sites of the City. Usually, we travel via Metro so getting a chance to see the city on the motorcycle, zipping through the streets, was a new experience for us. Simon was such a great tour guide, very informative and he tailored our tour based on what we already knew about the sites. It was so interesting to learn some new info on the places we stopped, things you wouldn't normally read about in a guide book. Simon even recommended a restaurant for us to try at the end of our tour that was the perfect way to finish the day. I can't recommended Txango Tours enough for a fun way to see Paris, whether it is your first visit or your tenth. You will be talking about it for years!Jane CusdenJane Cusden ★★★★★ I took the trip out to Versailles with Simon, he was very kind, knowledgeable and flexible if needed. We had rain all day, but that did not deter from having fun. Lovely lunch in nice restaurant in stead of a picnic, was very good, especially the Onion Soup to warm up! Thankyou Simon you made my day very memorable.Hannah Markell-GoldsteinHannah Markell-Goldstein ★★★★★ Such a fun and unique way to see paris! Simon is very knowledgeable and took his time with making sure we got the most out of each stop. My husband had never been to Paris before this trip whereas I have been 6-7 times including studying abroad there. Simon made sure that we both enjoyed the experienceGabriel PaalGabriel Paal ★★★★★ We did the off-the-beaten-path tour and it was such a great way to see areas of Paris we never would have discovered. Simon is very knowledgeable and personable. And let's talk riding in a sidecar...that was so much fun! We definitely do another tour with Simon the next time we're in Paris.Martine GORTCHAKOFFMartine GORTCHAKOFF ★★★★★ Le jeudi 22 Septembre , nous avons vécu une expérience inoubliable avec le Tour de Paris et ses monuments historiques en side car. La découverte de la capitale de cette façon a été à la fois ludique et explicative. Simon notre guide très sympathique, nous a appris beaucoup de choses sur l'histoire des monuments Nous recommandons cette activité à tous ceux qui voudraient découvrir Paris d'une façon peu habituelle, mais tellement plus intéressante. Merci Simon pour cet excellent moment.Martine et Alainisabelle ayacheisabelle ayache ★★★★★ Très belle expérience avec Simon..chouette ballade dans Paris, Simon a très bien su s'adapter à moi qui suis parisienne.. je recommande vivement cette façon de visiter Paris.David NessDavid Ness ★★★★★ Simon treated my wife and I to a 2 hour tour around Paris As the roads were quiet we whizzed round Paris stopping off at some hidden gems that we had never explored before.What struck me most is the smiles that Txangotours brings to pedestrians. I lost count of the number of people who pointed and smiled as we zoomed by.Thoroughly recommend it.Stephan LitterstStephan Litterst ★★★★★ Super Trip durch die Innenstadt von Paris, incl. Place d'étoile-Rundfahrt 😀.Toller Guide - Merci beaucoup à Simon - und viel Hintergrundinformationen. Für uns als Viel-Paris-Reisende eine klasse, neue Erfahrung.Judy LeeJudy Lee ★★★★★ My husband and I had an amazing experience with Txango Tours today with Simon Burke! We did the Paris Monuments Tour by Motorcycle Sidecar. I booked this a number of months ago and Simon was super responsive and so easy to deal with. Today, he showed up early and followed up with us as we weren't at the exact location. Simon was so patient with us and set proper expectations of what we would cover and timeline. Simon was extremely personable, kind and flexible. He took pictures of us and he even went out of his way to give us a great view of places that were not listed on the tour. This was a once in a lifetime experience and one we will cherish in years to come. I highly recommend Txango Tours and hope to do other tours with them. I hear they are growing quickly and can see why as it's such a unique experience. MAGICAL!!!! We will definitely share this with our friends and family in Canada. Thank you Simon for an incredible tour today! Judy & SheaHannah GillachHannah Gillach ★★★★★ This was the best thing that I did in my trip to Paris. I was only in the city for a few days, so getting to zoom around in a motorcycle sidecar was an awesome way to see the city! And having a personally guide to explain why Paris is the way it is was really amazing. The tour was personalized and the 2 hours flew by! I’d 10/10 recommend!Dionee SDionee S ★★★★★ To all the travelers out there you should book a tour from Txango Tour!!! It’s definitely worth it. It’s my first time in Paris and I don’t regret booking a tour from Simon. He is the best!!!! Even though it rained a bit but Simon was ready for our fancy Ponchos. How cool was that? Me and friend experienced the most amazing city tour in Paris. I will surely recommend this tour 10/10!!!! I will definitely book another tour to Versailles when I go back to Paris. Thank you so much Simon we had a great time. 😊☺️ I wish you more success in the future. I will never forget you. 🥰Jenny MeadJenny Mead ★★★★★ Amazing tour! Simon is a lovely guy and a wonderful guide. I would highly recommend to anyone! 😁Michelle KaufmanMichelle Kaufman ★★★★★ This is hands down one of the best things to do to get an overall view of Paris in the coolest ways possible. Simon is an excellent guide and historian, the ride is smooth and safe (coming from a self-professed Nervous Nelly!). My daughter (12) and I did this on our first full day in Paris to get a little preview to sites - we highly recommend everyone to book this now! Who needs a big dang bus when you can zip around in style? We loved every minute.Erin BlissErin Bliss ★★★★★ Highly recommend! My husband and I absolutely loved our tour with Simon. He is knowledgeable, friendly, and the tour is super fun. His motorcycle and sidecar are beautiful, comfortable, and meticulously maintained. Everyone smiled as we passed by. Simon provided great views, photo ops, history, anecdotes and insider tips. It was a highlight of our visit to Paris!UPDATE: Loved our tour so much we did a 2nd one! We had so much fun on our tour of Paris with Simon that we impromptu booked a 1/2 day tour of Versailles with him. Another awesome experience! Versailles was beautiful and Simon took us to a beautiful spot along the canal for a small picnic with wine, cheese, and bread that we bought at the Versailles market. We definitely recommend this tour as well, or the full day if you have time. You can’t go wrong with Txango Tours!HelmaHelma ★★★★★ Simon, de tour met zijspan was geweldig. Het was een fantastische ervaring en we hebben ervan genoten.Hele leuke, originele manier om parijs met deze fantastische gids te verkennen.Thankx Simon, you made this day into a unforgetable dayMarie BirkettMarie Birkett ★★★★★ On our recent trip to Paris we were fortunate enough to to enjoy a sidecar tour with Simon and Jean and it was unquestionably the highlight of our week.From the outset both gentlemen were personable and immediately settled any nerves that the kids had.Simon openly shared his own story with us and we left feeling like we had made a friend in Paris.In terms of the tour, Simon made it clear that it was very much our experience and we felt like he tailored it to us. Every time we stopped he gave us a brief history of the site and always offered to take pictures. He took the “long way back” at the end of the tour, we never felt like he was trying to wind things up and get back.Simon is extremely knowledgeable about French history and culture, he answered all questions and gave us a real flavor of Paris. We have already decided to return next year and will definitely be doing the trip to Versailles with Txango .10/10 from us and without doubt I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Txango.Merci Beaucop.Chad WillardsonChad Willardson ★★★★★ What a fantastic tour! He was so knowledgeable and passionate about the history and was great at answering all our questions. The ride in the side cars were fun. We had 3 of us on our tour. I highly recommend it. And book DIRECTLY through his website. He’s a local small business owner and it saves him 30% fees when you don’t go through travel agency websites. We appreciated this fun tour around Paris!Janine MarinoJanine Marino ★★★★★ We took a sidecar tour with Simon while on vacation. It was the best experience we had during our week in Paris. Simon was so personable, the sidecar was fun and he personalized the tour and gave us some great recommendations. His knowledge of history was vast and it was nice to get to some unexpected sites other than all the usual tourist attractions. He gave us recommendations for restaurants when we asked him and dropped us at a different ending point so that we'd be closest to the next place we were going. All in all, a wonderful experience that we would definitely recommend. Thank you, Simon!Natalie MorganNatalie Morgan ★★★★★ Absolutely fantastic experience. Cannot recommend the tour and Simon highly enough. My teenage daughter and I did the 2 hour Paris monuments tour first thing on a Saturday morning. Neither of us had been on a motorbike before but that didn’t matter. Simon is a brilliant guide, a really nice guy, it’s his business and he’s both knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The bike is new but of a classic design, it’s beautiful. My daughter said the side car was really comfy. This was a perfect introduction for my daughter to Paris. It was a lovely mother and daughter experience neither of us will forget. No regrets. Just do it!Nicholas BaréNicholas Baré ★★★★★ We had an AMAZING time with Simon on the Txango tour! Simon was a great guide; cheerfrul, and full of local facts. The trip itself covered a really diverse amount of sites, and being on the bike meant that you saw daily life in Paris from a new perspective. Sitting on the back of the bike was munch more comfortable than I expected too! :) Thanks Simon - no doubt you're going to have a busy summer! Nicholas & FionaDavin KumarDavin Kumar ★★★★★ Unique and fun family experience!Simon and Jean at Txango Tours Paris are fab! We booked the 90 min sidecar bike tour across Paris on our recent visit and cannot stop raving about this experience enough.We have 2 young, hyperactive daughters under the age of 8 and they specifically had an incredible time exploring Paris. The side car ride was deceptively therapeutic and the kids were able to sit through and enjoy the tour, plus us parents got to learn about the wonderful historical landmarks.Simon is able to keep your family entertained, share interesting insights on monuments and engage everyone in our family with the thrill of the sidecar ride. It's such a unique way to experience a city!Juanita HarrisonJuanita Harrison ★★★★★ Was such fun doing a tour of Paris in a motorcycle sidecar on the Vice to Violence tour. A rare opportunity. This was my first visit to Paris and I was travelling on my own but I wanted to see more than the usual sights. It was special fun to see sights one is less likely to come across with Simon’s interesting insights into the underbelly of Paris and quirky historical events. Simon was a gracious host who cares about his business. So glad I came across this and would definitely do another tour with Simon, and recommend to others who want to see a different side to Paris in a different way.Alec BunnAlec Bunn ★★★★★ Booked a Paris tour with Simon earlier this week. Had a wonderful time seeing the sights from a very unique perspective. Simon was very accommodating and interesting. Had a GREAT time. don't miss it.Courtney ZurichCourtney Zurich ★★★★★ Simon was an amazing tour guide! We were able to be flexible about routes based on conditions and he gave some great history of Paris monuments and France that I was not previously aware of. Riding in the side car was so fun! Such a cool and unique way to experience the city and get some history!Cher LemosCher Lemos ★★★★★ Simon loves his job, and it shows! My family took a quick three day trip to Paris while staying in Germany. Hands down, this was the high-light of our trip. The teenagers loved it, the young adults loved it and the parents loved it. The trip gives you a different view of Paris and all it has to offer. Simon's historical knowledge of Paris is outstanding and he and his team were tons of fun. We laughed, talked some trash (because that is what our family does) and enjoyed our time with them. Our only regret was not being able to do a second tour in our limited time in Paris. I will recommend this tour to everyone that I meet and plan to do another tour when we visit Paris again.Shelly NyqvistShelly Nyqvist ★★★★★ Hands down one of the MUST-DO things in Paris—even for locals. The monuments tour was fantastically fun and Simon shared quirky tidbits of Paris history. You really get a different perspective weaving through traffic by motorcycle. I'm already plotting my next sidecar tours... Montmartre, Versailles, a picnic, ?????Richa MirdhaRicha Mirdha ★★★★★ The side car tour with Simon was one of the highlights of our trip. My friend and I arrived late due to unavoidable circumstances. Inspite of the delay he was so gracious when we met him. (Sorry Simon! I’m not the tardy type so it’s still killing me! 🙈)We loved seeing Paris from the back of a motorcycle. The side car gave a totally new perspective of the city. He took us to see monuments that we wouldn’t have ordinarily gone to, and even took photographs on the way.Highly recommend Simon as a tour guide for Paris. Not only is he knowledgeable about the monuments and history of the city, he has a funny and engaging way of telling it. I’m definitely booking the tour on my next trip with the kids. They’ll love his beautiful bike and this novel way of seeing a city.Valérie GirardValérie Girard ★★★★★ Mon mari et moi avons beaucoup aimé le tour des monuments de Paris. Tout était bien: le lieu du rendez-vous, le circuit, le confort du side-car, la conduite de Simon, les informations et anecdotes données au fil des étapes.Nous vous recommandons vivement cette excursion, où l'on apprend beaucoup tout en étant chouchoutés par le guide-conducteur.Simon vous prend volontiers en photo devant chaque monument.C'est une occasion en or de faire du tourisme de façon originale et confortable.Simon vous prend en charge avec professionnalisme, et avec une bonne humeur communicative! Bravo!Lauren BLauren B ★★★★★ 3 words - SO - MUCH - FUN!what an amazing way to visit the beautiful city of Paris, zooming through the city in a sidecar was a unique experience. My friend and I did the Vice & Violence tour, Simon the tourguide/driver had a very expansive knowledge of Paris history with lots of fun anecdotes. I highly recommend :) Thanks Simon!Ian BurdonIan Burdon ★★★★★ Awesome!!!! Simon is a wealth of information on the history of Paris and a fantastic guide.I would have liked to have done the Vice and Violence tour but time would not permit.Perhaps next trip. The absolute BEST way to see this fascinating city.Thanks again Simon 👍Butch FreyButch Frey ★★★★★ My son and daughter-in-law gifted a monuments tour for my birthday. Simon is a great guide! Aside, the sidecar is surprisingly comfortable. I was able to stretch out my legs and it was amazingly easy to get in and out. I really appreciate Simon's personable approach and his sensitivity to what the customer is looking for. I am already planning a tour for my wife! Thanks, Simon, for a great tour. I will be recommending to my friends.Diane Sakakini-RaoDiane Sakakini-Rao ★★★★★ I did a Paris monuments tour with Simon last week with my friend Gail and we absolutely LOVED our experience! I've been coming to Paris for 40 years, but had never seen the sites from the back of a motorcycle before, and it was a total blast. Simon knows his history and was able to bring each monument to life. He is a sweetheart. I would highly recommend this on your next visit to Paris. It would be a great thing to do on your first day to get an overview of the city - or any day! Can't wait to do his Versailles tour one day soon.Abby ThompsonAbby Thompson ★★★★★ Had the BEST time with Simon taking not one, but two sidecar tours in the same week! I did my first ride solo, having a great time chatting and hanging out with Simon during the two hours in the sidecar. He's knowledgeable, friendly, and willing to stop for plenty of photos along the way (10/10 taking ALL the pictures while on this tour) and kindly provided helpful recommendations for the rest of my time in Paris. Within the same trip, I ended up booking the picnic tour for myself and a friend to take a ride, stopping for cheese, wine, and snacks at a few perfectly picturesque Paris locations. Riding both in the sidecar and on the back of the bike were SO fun, zipping around Paris on a gorgeous spring day felt like a dream and I would 100% book a tour again!LukasLukas ★★★★★ Super and sensational ride with Simon. Had the tour of the monuments and visited many monuments such as the Arc de Triomphe, Place de la concorde and the Eiffel tower. He also told us the stories of each places and learned a lot of facts about Paris.Gail Boisclair (PerfectlyParis)Gail Boisclair (PerfectlyParis) ★★★★★ This was the most fun I had on a Paris tour! Simon is a wealth of information and riding around the city in the sidecar was fantastic! The only thing I didn't like was that it ended - that just means I will need to book another tour with Simon very soon. Thank you very much!!DL TDL T ★★★★★ The best adventure in Paris! Vice and Violence tour was amazing, and you get to zip around in the most stylish sidecar that gets a lot of attention as you tour around. Simon is great -very knowledgeable and fun. I cannot recommend this enough.Yvonne MarieYvonne Marie ★★★★★ Oh my goodness! Can't say enough how much my husband and I enjoyed this tour! If you like the back stories behind some of the iconic sights of Paris, this is right up your alley. Simon is very knowledgeable and presents the info in a very engaging and interesting way. He gives lots of opportunities to stop and discuss the sights and get some great pictures. And if you think you might be even the slightest bit interested in riding on a sidecar through Paris, this is definitely for you. Seeing traffic from that perspective was a blast! Two hours went by like 15 minutes. Simon is a great guide--very friendly and engaging. Highly recommend this tour!Mark HolbrookMark Holbrook ★★★★★ Simon was an entertaining host and we had a great time seeing the sights of Paris with him via motorcycle, which is definitely a unique experience! He’s very knowledgeable and a superb rider as well. My fiancée had never ridden on a motorcycle or sidecar before and she loved the experience, as did I!sb 11sb 11 ★★★★★ Had an amazing time riding and chatting throughout the city of Paris! Simon is an excellent tour guide. Polite, professional, and funny. I discovered so many new things about Paris that I did not know before. Will definitely rebook a tour when we come back to this beautiful city. Thank you Simon for such a unique experience!Lili MorwoodLili Morwood ★★★★★ Went on my first ever sidecar tour with Simon last weekend and it was a blast! Honestly, my new favourite way to see Paris! Simon is such a knowledgeable and thoughtful guide, the tour was filled with facts I had never heard before! (and i thought I knew Paris so well!) Couldn't recommend enough!Lindsey Larson (Pictours Paris)Lindsey Larson (Pictours Paris) ★★★★★ I had a really amazing day exploring Paris and Versailles…all from within a sidecar! Simon of Txango Tours was super friendly, funny, easy going and incredibly knowledgeable of French history! We met up early morning for a quick coffee while he showed me the motorcycle and explained how our day would roll out…We first headed out of Paris to Versailles. The sidecar itself was quite comfortable and spacious! I’m tall and long-legged, but I was comfortable the whole day! It was fun to see Paris in plein air while Simon navigated the streets carefully and confidently. As we got into Versailles, we stopped at a really beautiful vintage boulangerie for some sandwiches for later.As we approached the chateau, it was breathtaking to be able to see the palace with an unobstructed view from my sidecar. We stopped for some photos as he gave me history of the château and gardens. We then enjoyed a picnic lunch along the canal, where I learned more about Versailles and we had some good laughs. So fun!!After lunch we stopped at the Trianon and the oh-so-beautiful Temple of Love!Simon was probably one of the friendliest tour guides I’ve ever had. He’s relatable and genuinely friendly and interested in getting to know his clients. He sprinkles in humor and fun anecdotes among interesting French history. We then cruised back to Paris and saw the Eiffel Tower, Pont Alexandre III, and several other monuments.I would absolutely take another Txango Tour in the future, and have already recommended it to my friends!! Thank you Simon and Txango!April PettApril Pett ★★★★★ My best friend came to visit me in Paris and I wanted to give her an amazing experience! I contact Simon for a sidecar tour of Montmartre and boy did it exceed all expectations! Simon is knowledgeable, funny and kind. He picked us up and off we zoomed through the streets of Paris! He told us about the fascinating history of the neighbourhood, stopping For many photos along the way. He energy and smile are contagious. This was a trip that we’ll never forget, merci Simon!Jay SwansonJay Swanson ★★★★★ First off, if you've never ridden in a motorcycle sidecar - what are you doing with your life? Second, the best place for that first experience is clearly in Paris. And how better to do it than beside a Royal Enfield driven by the friendliest motorcyclist in Paris, Simon?Simon took me and my new puppy (yep, first sidecar ride for the both of us) for a spin around Paris. We had a wonderful time, Simon's as friendly as he looks as it turns out, and felt safe the entire time. The windscreen kept the wind out of my face - and my puppy slept pretty much the entire ride (the experience wasn't totally wasted on him, he needed the snooze).All in all, well worth it! Give Txango Tours a spin, take a ride, and get some of the most unique selfies you'll manage while visiting the City of Light!js_loader
