Very interesting tour with guide Henry. We couldn't reach the top due to strong winds, but that's not the organizer's fault. Part of the entrance fee was refunded without any complications.Madelein

To start off the guide, Henry, was engaging and absolutely passionate about his topic. We visited 19:30 and saw the sunset over La Défense while one of the tower employees sang La Vie en Rose. Absolutely breath taking amazing experience thank you!

Paris has an amazing atmosphere that is hard to compare with other world cities. The Eiffel Tower stairs climbing experience was literally breathtaking :). Henry our tour guide was outstanding. He knew a lot of history fact about the Eiffel tower that made us more eager to get to the top. The mix of his sense of humor and knowledge made the almost 700 stpes feels nothing. Thank you Henry.
