Why Travelers Love Our Paris Layover Tour
« We booked a Parisian layover tour on our way to Cairo. We had approximately 5 hours that ended up being reduced 4 hours because of a delayed flight. Our tour guide and driver were very accommodating and we were able to see many monuments including the Sacre Cour, Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, and the Arch de Triomphe. We were even lucky enough to go inside Notre dame, as well as outside of the Eiffel tower, rather than just driving by these monuments. We also had time to stop at a small Christmas Market and shop at the Bouquinistes. Annaise(sp?) Was a wealth of information and a delight, and our driver handled the traffic of Paris with ease, and got us back to the airport in plenty of time to go through security and to make our connection. I highly recommend this service! »

« Our driver was Redouane, and he was fabulous! I highly recommend this company for service and communication! I am very hard to please and expect alot especially when I go to a foreign country! My daughters and I felt very safe everywhere he took us. He picked us up at airport right on time, we went to the Eiffel Tower and then he took us to the best cafe with amazing views of the Eiffel Tower. We were ready to go back to airport after that but he would have taken us wherever we wanted! I will definitely use them again! »

« I booked with My Daily Driver for a 6 hour layover tour of Paris and they provided 4 Mercedes minivans for our group of 23. We unfortunately had our connecting flight cancelled last minute, and the drivers were all accommodating as they waited on us. They gave us a great quick tour and then dropped us off at a restaurant instead of taking us back to airport since we had a lot more time. Highly recommend them if you want to do a layover tour of the city - much more relaxing than relying on public transportation to make your flight on time! »

« I had a layover in Paris. I thought I would take advantage of the opportunity to see the sights. Booking a tour with My Daily Driver was the best thing I could have done. Jean-François was a great guide. I was able to see more of the sites in the short time I had then I could possibly have done on my own. I would defiantly recommend this service to anyone. »

« We had a 7 1/2 hour layover in Paris. Our driver, William, picked us up at the airport and managed to hit our bucket list of places we wanted to see, plus so much more. And then got us back to the airport in time for our connection. We had never been to Paris before so this was just perfect. He would drop us off at places so we could walk around as much as we wanted and take pictures. He knew just where to park so we didn't have to walk far and could find him easily after each stop. It was exactly as we had hoped - and so much more. »

« Hello, We had an amazing experience yesterday (10/20/2022) with Johnson in Paris, France! I was traveling with my teenage daughter and we had an extended layover in Paris. We both very much wanted to see Paris. The text message the day before our trip with Johnson’s name and contact information was a reassuring confirmation. Johnson met us in the airport and walked us to the van that had a phone charger and water for us. He found out what sites both my daughter and I were most interested in and proposed an itinerary based on our availability. As it turns out traffic in Paris was lighter than normal and we had the opportunity to take pictures outside by 11 locations. We saw Acr de Triomphe, Eiffel Tower (view from distance & up close) Pont Neuf, Pont Jefferson, Musee Invalides, the Louvre, Notre Dame, Opera, Champs Elysees, Monmarte, & Sacre Coeur! Johnson was very personable and informative. We learned a lot about the sites we saw. At most locations Johnson offered to take pictures of us, which was great!!! Hi highly recommend your company and Johnson to anyone! Johnson was outstanding and made our layover AMAZING!!!! »

What's the minimum layover time for a Paris tour?
We recommend a minimum layover of 7 hours to fully enjoy a Paris Layover Tour without rushing. Here's why:
➤ Meeting your driver: It usually takes 45 minutes to 1 hour after landing to exit the aircraft, clear immigration and security, and meet your driver in the arrivals area.
➤ Round-trip driving time: The drive between the airport and central Paris is approximately 2 hours total (about 45 min–1h each way, depending on traffic).
➤ Paris tour: To make the tour worthwhile, you should plan on spending at least 3 hours exploring the city.
➤ Return to the airport: We drop you off no later than 1 hour before your next flight, ensuring a smooth and stress-free connection.
Where will I meet my driver at the airport?
Your driver will be waiting for you at the customs exit with a personalized sign, ensuring a warm and professional welcome.
You will receive your driver's contact details the day before your tour by email and SMS. Once your driver is in position, they will reach out to you via WhatsApp or SMS, so you can communicate easily upon arrival.
Can the tour be customized?
Absolutely. Since this is a private experience, the itinerary can be fully adapted to your interests, whether you want to add extra stops, spend more time at certain landmarks, or adjust the overall pace of the visit. We tailor the tour to make the most of your layover in Paris.
What's the difference between the Guided Tour and the Driving Tour?

The drive from central Paris to Charles de Gaulle (CDG) airport typically takes 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on traffic. To Orly airport, the ride usually takes 30 to 45 minutes.
Since traffic conditions around Paris can vary throughout the day, we always recommend allowing some extra time to anticipate any unexpected delays and ensure a smooth, stress-free arrival at the airport.

« Do not hesitate booking My Daily Driver! Communication was 5 stars from booking to our final hotel drop off. They were able to easily accommodate our large family ages 3-70 making any change we requested. Even with the airline complicating our arrival luggage, the driver was able to help us fix the issue and get our on our way to Paris without missing a beat. Our driver and guide were amazing and truly strived to make our experience exciting, comfortable, adaptable, and luxurious. Despite being caught in heavy traffic, they never hesitated to educate us on sites we passed through and made sure we had all we needed. This was an excellent investment and so glad we did it! »
