Is the price per person?
No. Tuktuk Ride quotes its price per vehicle, for up to six passengers. At 220 euros for six people, that is about 37 euros each; for two people it is 110 euros each. The Grand Tour is also a private vehicle with a maximum of six people. Count the people you are travelling with before comparing: a private vehicle is best value for a family or a group of friends.
What is included
Tuktuk Ride lists a private vehicle, a driver-guide, electricity, passenger insurance, commentary and photo stops. The tour leaves from in front of Saint-Germain-des-Pres church, and a pick-up at another address is possible for a 30 euro supplement. The vehicles are electric.
The Grand Tour from E-Tuk Paris describes a route from Place de l'Etoile past the Trocadero, the Eiffel Tower, the Invalides and Pont Alexandre III, with photo stops. Its page does not list a minimum age or cancellation terms, so ask before you book if you are travelling with young children.
Which one to choose
- First visit, left-bank start: Paris Highlights is longer (two hours) and cheaper, and the meeting point is easy to find in Saint-Germain-des-Pres.
- Eiffel Tower and Trocadero views: the Grand Tour is built around those stops and starts at Place de l'Etoile.
- Tight budget: the Highlights tour costs 40 euros less for 30 minutes more.
- Group of five or six: either works, and the cost per head drops sharply.
Weather and cancellations
Tuktuk Ride plans a postponement or a full refund if the weather makes driving dangerous, for example a storm or an orange weather alert. Outside such cases, free cancellation ends 24 hours before the tour, and you receive no refund inside that window. Check the calendar on the booking page for your day. In winter, wrap up: you are in an open vehicle.
Other ways to see Paris with a guide
If you prefer to pedal, look at bike tours in Paris. For a car and driver, see private driver and tours in Paris. For a walk on the hill, our Montmartre guide covers the streets, and for a view from the water, see the Seine cruise.
Before you go
- Meet at the point shown on your voucher and arrive a few minutes early.
- Bring a warm coat in cold months.
- Photo stops are part of the tour: charge your phone first.
- Ask your driver-guide how the route will change if there is a demonstration or road work; central Paris closes roads often.
