The experience was very good. The chatbot was annoying with a ticket problem. The person who took over after an eternity was helpful and solved the problem quickly.

It's a pity that the guide spoke all in English, which was complicated for us French. Still, he was very interesting.

Easy breezy access to the Eiffel Tower

A host will escort you to the 2nd floor of the tower, until the elevators to the summit floor.

Pick your adventure: First 2 floors or Summit

Stop by the 1st floor to take a walk on the spectacular transparent flooring and get a unique perspective of the crowds below. From the 2nd floor of the Eiffel Tower, take in a near-perfect aerial view of iconic Parisian landmarks such as the Arc de Triomphe, Montmartre district, Notre Dame, Champs Elysees, the Louvre, the Invalides Dome, and so on. Trace the trajectory of the river Seine, and try to identify the famous architecture along its banks.

The summit of the Eiffel Tower sits at 267 meters along the thinner parts of the tower. This means that the views are even more panoramic! Visit the Champagne Bar and sip on a bubbly if you wish, on your own dime. Don’t miss the re-creation of Gustave Eiffel's office, filled with artifacts offering insights into the genius design and construction of the Eiffel Tower.
