The experience was very nice. To see the Eiffel Tower up close and personal was amazing. The only thing I didn't like very much is that the tour didn't seem to organized. We're not from Paris so we arrived 3 mins late due to road closures. And then they didn't offer a grace period for arrival. Then we had to walk to try and find the guide which we didn't know how he looked and he wasn't answering the phone. However we did end up finding him. And he was a big help so were thankful for that. Overall great experience.

We bought tickets to the top floor of the Eiffel Tower but the lift was broken so we could only access the 2nd floor. The guide said we would get a partial refund but never explained how we would receive this refund or how to claim it. The views were spectacular from the 2nd floor but it was extremely crowded. If you book this package be aware that it does not enable you to skip the que. It was an average experience for the additional expense of having a guide. We could've done it ourselves for much less miney.

Catalina was so knowledgeable and delivered all the information in a fun and lively way. We also had a medical emergency during our group which she handled really well and still kept her group in the forefront despite such difficult circumstances.

A Stairway to Parisian Heaven

Experience the world-famous Eiffel Tower on a thoughtfully guided tour, complete with elevator access to the Summit or 2nd floor. Your English-speaking guide will share fascinating commentary with the group, 20 guests or less, about the history behind the tower and lesser-known secrets too.

Ascend to the 2nd floor by the elevator, 377 feet above ground level, and take in breathtaking views of Paris. Watch out for renowned landmarks including Champs-Élysées, the gothic Notre Dame, and the majestic Arc de Triomphe. Descend to the 1st floor and stand atop the suspended glass floor, marveling at the streets and surrounding park below. You can even get a ticket upgrade to gain summit access by elevator. The 3rd level affords the ultimate views of the city so prepare to be spellbound!
