The food and the tour were very good, but the port should be a bit better lit because you can't see it at night. Also, the waiters don't treat everyone equally: one of the waiters, to attend to the table next to us that was consuming more bottles of wine, placed an empty lemonade and Coca-Cola bottle on our table just to serve them and left the bottles there as if we were unwanted.

The Heafout process was so easy, start to finish. I went online, ordered the tickets, received them by email. We didn't have a timed ticket which was great!! Since our plans changed we were able to show up anytime the day of our tickets. We got in line, showed our tickets and had a great time at the top of the Arc de Triomphe. Absolutely well worth it. What a view!!!

Admission went smoothly. You have a wonderful view over the star-shaped streets, can watch the hustle and bustle in the roundabout, and above all gaze at the Eiffel Tower, which was illuminated and sparkling (during our visit). Great experience!

A fantastic attraction, no problem reaching it, easy entry. And then when you get to the top and have all of Paris at your feet, you never want to come down. Breathtaking view, Eiffel Tower in plain sight, you can't ask for more.

Both visits were great. Access to the sites, signage, communication, and ticket confirmation were all smooth. The Eiffel Tower guide was friendly and provided all the necessary information. We didn't run into any difficulties.

I couldn't download my tickets and an employee passed me her wifi. That was very nice of her. It was a beautiful view. My daughter and I really enjoyed it.

Standing at the top of the Arc De Triomphe and looking over Paris was magical! However, 2 of the 4 of us required the elevator. Unfortunately, it was not working, and 2 from our party could not come to the top. I would hope that the ticket sellers would be apprised of conditions at landmarks like this and not sell tickets to people who are physically unable to use them. I should get a refund for those 2 tickets!

Skip-the-line was great, but it's a shame you only find out on-site that the elevator isn't working. Deliberate or not (too many tourists?), at a certain age, climbing 284 steps and then going down just as many... it's very, very tough.

Ascend to the Arc de Triomphe rooftop for panoramic views of Paris city.

Getting started

Arrive at the centrally located Place Charles-de-Gaulle and present your e-ticket (mobile or print) at the main entrance. After a quick security check, begin your self-guided or optional guided visit, ready to climb 284 stairs to the terrace.

What to expect

Tomb of the Unknown Soldier: Visit this solemn memorial, where the eternal flame is rekindled daily at 6:30 PM in honor of World War I soldiers.

Informative exhibitions: Learn about the monument’s symbolism and history through on-site displays.

Note: The elevator is reserved for disabled visitors; all others will climb stairs. The Arc de Triomphe is closed on select holidays and Wednesdays from June to September.
