Best Hop On-Hop Off Buses in Paris

Bonjour! We're in Paris right now and looking for recommendations on the best hop on-hop off bus company. Big Bus seems good - thoughts?

Thanks!

Stacy I have used L'Open Tour buses twice. They are the right green and yellow ones. I lled that they have four routes(other hoho only has two routes) and that a two day pass was only a few euros more then the one day pass, and there is enough to see that the two day pass was worth it. Also no need to buy ahead, we bought on boarding ,which I recommend since the bonus of using a hoho is enjoying the views of each neighborhood as u drive through them and that would not be pleasant on the rain!

We've taken L'Open Tour once and the red one (Les Cars Rouge?) many, many times. We like the red one better only because it's less expensive. True it has less routes but that didn't matter to us. We just enjoy sitting up top, at the back, in the open air when we're too tired to walk... it's relaxing and fun. Be sure to wear sunblock or a hat, and bring water with you.
