CoupleVerified bookingLast week5/5This was an amazing experience and definitely worth booking through Headout. The views from the summit of the Eiffel Tower were absolutely breathtaking and something I’ll never forget. Our host, Clement, was very friendly, explained everything clearly, and made sure the entire experience went smoothly from start to finish. His guidance made the visit stress-free and enjoyable. Seeing Paris from the top of the Eiffel Tower was truly mind-blowing. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Paris. It’s a must-do attraction with unforgettable views!EEmma H
SoloVerified booking5 days ago4/5Despite what initially seemed an unusual pick up point, very well organised tour. Laura, our guide was really lovely and as we approached the tower, gave us a brief history. There was no waiting at the security points. Once on the second floor, there was a wait of around 30 minutes to get to the top- this applied to everyone. Amazing views at the top. Despite the queues to get up, it was not too crowded I finished the day eith a beautiful cruise down the Seine. I timed it right as no queue. It looked very busy on our return! Great day. Would recommend.ZZhang Y
CoupleVerified booking2 weeks ago5/5Unfortunately, when we arrived, the Eiffel Tower was closed due to the heat. The agency refunded 100% of the ticket price and even offered us a 10% discount. I really want to thank the staff who helped me resolve this issue. I understand that this was an exceptional situation and that it had never happened before. Even though we had to spend a little time finding a solution, I’m very satisfied with the assistance I received. Thank you so much!PPolly A
GroupVerified bookingJun 20265/5We had a wonderful time. Our guide met us on time and took us inside where we could fill our water bottles. He then walked us over to the tower stopping a few times along the way to provide information. He was very informative and made it fun to learn. He explained the process for going the the security gates and then left us when we got on the elevator to the summit. We then had as much time as we wanted and didn't have to stay together as a groupAApril M
CoupleVerified bookingToday5/5Your guide not very good at all. Very limited information about the site. Having been on a large number of guided tours recently this guide fell very short of expectations and I would not recommend him. When we got to the second level the summit was closed it was about 1030pm when asked he said it was "too hot" he disappeared told us to get a refund but 20 minutes later it was open again so we went my up ourselves.
