Tour to the Eiffel Tower

Easy to find the meeting place and the welcomed into the lounge waiting are, which was nice and clean. After 10mins our tour guide Leonardo came to greet us walked us to the Eiffel Tower. During the visit to the Eiffel tower he explained the history of the Eiffel tower and what we will be doing to get up the Eiffel tower. Very friendly and well spoken. Definitely recommend using this company.

Great Viator Eiffel Tower Experience!

It was an amazing tour. Leo gave us so much historical information as well as pointing out monuments and historical structures. Also the ease of getting onto the Eiffel Tower was so much faster with our tour tickets.

A Lovely View

It is so much better to book a tour ahead of your visit and with a guide. We were able to go directly to the Elevator as we had tickets and no long waits. Our guide Bruno was very personable and knowledgeable about the Eiffel Tower. The view from the 2nd level was amazing!

Eiffel Tower Access to 2nd Floor with Summit Option, Seine Cruise

Ashley_H, Apr 2026

Great family experience for 10 people (adults and 4 children)

This was a great way to see the Eiffel Tower and Seine cruise since we were not able to get tickets online directly through the official website. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, the company was helpful, and everything was prompt. We were given the option to upgrade to a more “posh” boat when we checked in that included snacks and/or champagne for $20 euros and we did. Highly recommend!

Paris Late Lunch at Eiffel Tower's Madame Brasserie Restaurant

Rebecca_M, Mar 2026

Wonderful experience.

60th birthday lunch with my sister at the Eiffel Tower. Wonderful experience. It’s a little expensive, but with 1 glass of Champaign and 2 glasses of wine and good food, plus a view of the river - well worth it. Very well organized and felt we could take our time since we got the later time slot. Highly recommend!
