This afternoon we visited the Eiffel Tower on a guided tour and it was a truly engaging experience. The guide was knowledgeable and passionate, able to tell historical trivia and interesting anecdotes that made the visit much more lively and less "touristy." The organization was on time and well managed, allowing us to avoid long waits. Climbing the Tower and admiring Paris from above, despite the cold weather, was exciting and evocative. A visit we absolutely recommend to really understand the symbolic and historical value of this iconic monument.

Unforgettable experience !!! There were so many people but everything was very smooth despite the fact that it was Christmas night ! Our guide ( I think her name was Chloe if I am not mistaken ) accompanied us along the way to the top always with a smile and really showing how much she enjoys her job !!! Seeing Paris from the top at night is something absolutely 100% worth it. Super satisfied. It was worth every penny spent ! Kudos to the organization.

One thing I really enjoyed about my tour of the Eiffel tower, was the how punctual and orderly everything was. Our guide met us at exactly 2:15, the agreed upon time. From there we were taken very quickly to the Eiffel Tower where our guide, swiftly guided us through all the security checkpoints in an orderly manner. Having a reliable guide allowed me to simply relax and enjoy the experience without having to worry about any sense of directions etc

The truth is that the experience at the Eiffel Tower was great, even though the weather was pretty bad and gray. The best part was that we didn't have to wait at all; there was no line, and we even went straight through the fast line reserved for guides, which saves a lot of time and makes you feel very secure with the entire access protocol. A key tip for other travelers is that, even though they give you a meeting time, you don't actually enter the monument until about 15 minutes after the initial meeting time, so don't despair. We know that tickets to the top by elevator are sometimes hard to come by, but the Headout website makes everything much simpler. We walked from the first and second floors to the top floor via elevator. Our guide was great: although the tour was officially only in English, she was super friendly and made a huge effort to speak to us in Spanish so we wouldn't miss anything. We had a great time and the views, even with clouds, are totally unbeatable.

Our guided tour of the Eiffel Tower was outstanding. The guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and made the history feel alive rather than scripted. We skipped the chaos, learned real context, and enjoyed incredible views. Easily one of the highlights of our Paris trip.
