Not bots but real people offering a great service
What a pleasant experience! We had booked our cruise while we were still in the UK and made the error of booking the 18:30 cruise. On arrival in Paris and wanting a sunset experience,we realised that the later cruise would be more appropriate. Come to Paris assisted us and got us onto the right cruise with no trouble and what a beautiful cruise it was. I would definitely use them again and I highly recommend them for all your fun filled bookings. THANK YOU for your kind assistance. BTW, I was afraid that I would need to navigate my changes via a bot but instead, l had the pleasure of speaking to a real caring human lady.

Very nice and well organized cruise on Seine. Sitting on ship was good, food was excellent, service very attentive. We had 4 children in our group of 11 and they have immeditately got special attention from the service-team.
The route and timing was perfect and everyone in our group was happy. So well done with a reasonable price - peformance-ratio.
