It was fantastic. The group was small and friendly. Although young, Chloe turned out to be a skillful and expirienced guide and utterly up to the task. She told us everything we wanted to know about the tower and gave us some useful tips as well. The guide leads you up to the 2nd floor (which is pretty high!) and provides you with instructions about the rest. The weather was gloomy but one needs to know that it rains some 270 days a year in Paris. Here is a pic taken from the very top of the tower. Absolute recommendation for Chloe and the crew!

The weather was almost summer-like as we met up with our guide, Flavia, at the designated meeting point. We went up to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower via the west pillar. An excellent choice—the only elevator remaining from the construction of the Iron Lady that’s still in service. Our guide provided detailed explanations in English and Spanish to accommodate all participants. Then, we ascended to the summit, 300 meters above Paris. A magical experience. I highly recommend this tour.

The tour of the Eiffel Tower was one of the best experiences we had during our EuroTrip. The guide was very friendly; everyone else in the group spoke English, and we were the only ones speaking Spanish, but she made sure we understood absolutely EVERYTHING she said. The experience was wonderful—everything was very well organized. We watched the sunset from there, and it was magical. Highly recommended!!

We met Alexandra our guide who was very friendly & fun, short walk to the tower with some interesting facts on the way. The queue was quiet but it was only 9:30am. Alexandra took us up to the 2nd floor and explained the history and more interesting stuff. We then went up to the top for fantastic views of the city.

The tour started right on time at the designated meeting point. Once we arrived, we headed to the tower, which is about a 3-minute walk away. Thanks to some tips from our guide, we went through security very quickly and were able to go up pretty fast. It was a great experience; I highly recommend the guided tour.

Everything was organized in a simple and effective manner. The highly knowledgeable guide accompanied us to the second floor and then left us free to climb to the top and explore on our own, telling us about the history and interesting facts about the Eiffel Tower. It was definitely an experience I would recommend.

The tour was with Paris Trip; we met the guide at the agreed time in front of the agency. He gave us a very thorough explanation of the tower’s history and the sights we could see from the top. I highly recommend it.
