⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fantastic tour of the Arc de Triomphe with Emily as our guide! She was a passionate, cheerful, and very engaging guide who helped us discover the monument and its history with lots of interesting stories and great energy. Her explanations were clear and easy to follow, and the tour was truly enjoyable from start to finish. A little extra adventure for Lily and me: **since the visitor elevator was out of order, we climbed AND descended all 284 steps! 💪😂** Needless to say, we really earned our reward at the top! And what a reward! **The view from the rooftop is simply fantastic 🤩** You literally look down on all of Paris, with a 360° view and magnificent panoramas in every direction. Seeing the grand avenues radiate out from the Arc de Triomphe and Paris stretch as far as the eye can see is truly impressive! And best of all… I finally met **the real Emily in Paris! 😂** Much friendlier than in the show—and, above all, an excellent guide! Thank you, Emily, for such a wonderful time. We highly recommend this tour—for the history, the experience, the view, and the good vibes!

I prefer going to the top of the Arc de Triomphe rather than the Eiffel Tower. There's room to walk around and get great pictures with all parts of the city. There's a nice gift shop that has unique treasures to purchase-especially the jewelry. The elevator was out of order but it was a great workout for a gorgeous reward at the top.

A beautiful experience to do at the Arc de Triomphe. We were stunned when we were told there were 200 steps to climb. Your site is not working, unable to send.
