⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A smooth and unforgettable experience The Eiffel Tower Guided Tour by Elevator was absolutely worth it. The reserved entry saved us a lot of time, and everything was very well organized from start to finish. Our guide was knowledgeable and engaging, sharing interesting facts and stories that made the experience even more enjoyable. Taking the elevator up was easy and comfortable, and the views from the second floor and especially the summit were breathtaking. Having guaranteed access removed all the stress, so we could fully enjoy the moment. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Paris who wants a seamless experience and memorable views of the city. Definitely a highlight of the trip!❤️

Salomé, polite and cheerful, wanted to get to know us a little by knowing where we were from. She then explained the different stages of the visit. She was concerned about our safety: a couple with walking sticks, warning us about the itinerant vendors at the entrance to the site, and the fraudulent women asking for money for their supposedly sick children. The great advantage of a guided tour is the history of the building and the area, and of Gustave Eiffel himself, as well as the fact that you can skip the queue and go straight to the elevator door.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sarah was an excellent tour guide! She was friendly, approachable, and very knowledgeable about the history and construction of the Eiffel Tower. She kept everyone together, explained clearly what to expect, and even took time to help us take photos. I really appreciated how she made the experience engaging and used the waiting moments to connect with the group. A great storyteller who made the tour fun and memorable!

Art enthusiast? Experience France's first extensive Ellsworth Kelly exhibition, showcasing his diverse work from over six decades.

Indulge your senses with "Yellow Curve," Kelly's inaugural expansive floor painting, making its European debut after its inception in 1990.

Join a guided small-group tour of the Eiffel Tower, with elevator access 1st and 2nd floors, or go to the summit, led by an experienced English-speaking guide.

Stand atop the suspended glass floor on the 1st floor and marvel at iconic landmarks like Notre Dame and the majestic Arc de Triomphe amidst the cityscape below.

Fun fact: The tower's height can vary by up to 15 centimeters (6 inches) due to thermal expansion. In hot weather, the iron expands, causing the structure to grow taller.

The guide was great and effeciently moved us through the process of getting thru the checkpoints and access to the elevators. Admitedly there were not many visitors in the tower duing our visit but I imagine that it would be an efficient way to see the tower if it was busy. The guide stayed and ansered our questions and pointed out Paris highlights and history after he dismissed everyone to explore in their own.

Amazing experience!!! Seeing the Eiffel Tower live was so exciting. Our guide, Alexander, was very good, took pictures of us, gave us a lot of information we didn't know about this beautiful monument. Highly recommended this tour as it allowed us to skip lines at the various checkpoints.

I actually could not participate because I arrived resoundingly late. But I really appreciated the kindness and professionalism of the operators who searched for us until the last moment in the hope that we could fit in. Few would have been so attentive ( especially when we were on the wrong side).

We would take a tour with our guide Salome again at any time. We learned a lot and were able to ask questions at any time. She was also very helpful with tips on food, sights and shopping. We were a group from different countries and had a lot of fun.

Fondation Louis Vuitton

Step into the realm of one of the 20th century's most influential artists at the Fondation Louis Vuitton's "Ellsworth Kelly – Shapes and Colors, 1949–2015" exhibition. Marking Kelly's centenary, this is France's premier comprehensive display of his work, featuring over 100 pieces. A must-see for art aficionados!

The exhibition traces Kelly's exploration of shape, color, line, and space through key works from pivotal periods in his career. Spanning two floors, the collection showcases a variety of pieces that highlight the apparent simplicity yet profound complexity of Kelly's artistic expression. Notable among them is Yellow Curve (1990), Kelly's groundbreaking large-scale floor painting, making its European debut since its creation in 1990.
