potchak Posted January 19 #1 Share Posted January 19 Does anyone know what hotel we will be staying at in Paris? We are trying to figure out if we should do Versailles on our own or do the Viking tour. The viking tour is $199 pp and we can definitely do it cheaper and have a lot more time to explore the grounds if we do it on our own. Appreciate the assist. I noticed the excursions were open today (so much for that email notification), so want to get a jump on them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbrunswicker Posted January 20 #2 Share Posted January 20 We did this cruise on the Idi in November 2022 and stayed at the Pullman Montparnasse. It was a beautiful hotel across the street from the train station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiser02 Posted January 20 #3 Share Posted January 20 We did this cruise October 2023 and stayed at the same hotel as above. Viking tours are well organized with morning pick up at the hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincent15 Posted January 20 #4 Share Posted January 20 Hyatt Regency Paris Étoile, 3 Pl. du Général Kœnig, 75017 Paris, France, pretty far from all attractions, but 7 minutes from a metro station Sheraton Zurich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CielBleu Posted January 22 #5 Share Posted January 22 I just took a look at the tickets, which are priced around $23 per person for a general entry ticket, $75 for priority entry and 90-minute guided tour, and $85 for a combo ticket with another attraction. Does Viking's tour give you anything above that, like exclusive entry? If not, I'd do it on your own. We've been twice, and I don't remember any difficulty taking the train from Paris to Versailles. There was a nice, short walk through town to the palace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dulcigal Posted February 21 #6 Share Posted February 21 We would like to do a Seine Boat tour. We will be on the Panoramic Paris excursion in the morning. Do I book my tour online soon? And is it easy to get to the boats from our hotel, the Pullman Montpasse? We're from a very small town, so we are not familiar with using public transportation.

There's always Uber. Don't need to navigate anything but the app. Check out the Batobus. It's hop on hop off on the river. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
