Best tour of our trip. Good guide, informative and entertaining. Showed us the sights and surroundings, took us to the 2nd floor and left us to do what we wanted. We stay a couple hours looking around and had a glass of wine. Great experience.

Abi was a great guide, the views are worth the day. I recommend going to the top first, security was a breeze but through lines was nice! I had been to the Tower fire but never went up to see, the history and views should not be missed.

Tour guide did a good job...

Heather_B, May 2026
Tour guide did a good job providing the brief history of the Eiffel Tower and eased navigating the security land elevator lines.

Money wasted

Gulsabah_A, May 2026
We arrived at the location exactly at the time indicated but the doors were closed and no one to be found. Several families like us were there waitinf wirh no luck. No answer on phone calls. If several families are missing from an appointment the responsible thing would be to wait an extra 10 minutes or whatsapp them in advance as a group.

Eiffel visit

William_H, May 2026
Vera was a wonderful guide. Great personality and very informative. Amazing place seen up close; history was really interesting

Better direction

Rhonda_Y, May 2026
The directions on where to meet was confusing. Wish directions had said don’t go directly to the tower but meet at an outside location. We missed our original tour and had to reschedule for hours later.

A Few Lines Due to Crowds

Kristi_F, May 2026
Leonardo was humorous and friendly. He escorted us right to where we needed to go!, The views from the Eiffel Tower are spectacular!

Amazing day would like to...

Sharon_S, May 2026
Amazing day would like to say thank you to leonardo for helping with medical issue and to all in the group All ok now

Book direct - this was a slam of people with no enhanced entry or experience

Joanne_S, May 2026
It’s a complete slam to get thru…. Nothing helpful about booking thru Viator … don’t waste your money book direct

Best views of Paris!

Lisa_H, May 2026
We booked for late afternoon, it was the perfect time to head to the Eiffel Tower, not many lines and our group was taken straight thru. Amazing strcuture and hearing about how it was built and why was super informative. Highly recommend this tour. We went to the top, what an amazing view of an amazing city. Can not wait to go back!

Rainy Day on the Eiffel Tower

Bill_C, May 2026
The tour was good and informational. The day we went it was raining , quite a lot. So not the best views.

Great Way To See The Eiffel Tower

Amanda_K, May 2026
Very well organised tour . Abbey was a great tour guide . She was easy to listen to , showed us pictures in her folder and was also funny. Made a daunting experience easy

Just Wow!

Stephen_W, May 2026
Never visit the Eiffel tower without paying the extra and going right to the top. You can't believe the view you get of the whole city of Paris.

Good tour

Bruce_M, May 2026
Best tour of our trip. Good guide, informative and entertaining. Showed us the sights and surroundings, took us to the 2nd floor and left us to do what we wanted. We stay a couple hours looking around and had a glass of wine. Great experience.

Expect crowds of people. ...

sheryl_t, May 2026
Expect crowds of people. Eiffel Tower extremely busy. Enjoyed our guide, Abby. Meeting spot easy to locate. Would recommend Viator over other choices.

Great decision to Viator for my Eiffel Tower Experience

Sheryl_H, May 2026
The Eiffel Tower excursion through Viator was in a very convenient location and easy to find. One thing to note is that the meeting area is not really set up well for guests needing restroom access before the tour begins, which could be improved considering the amount of waiting and crowds in the area. Our tour guide, Sol, spoke excellent English and did a great job sharing details and history about the Eiffel Tower throughout the tour. She communicated expectations clearly from the beginning, including letting the group know that her guided portion of the tour would conclude once we reached the second level. I appreciated the transparency so there was no confusion afterward. Overall, it was a smooth and informative experience, and Sol did a great job keeping the group organized while navigating a very busy attraction.

Eiffel Tower tour was great!

Colleen_E, May 2026
Sol was an excellent tour guide. Two hours was plenty of time. We enjoyed the history and details. Great tour!

The wait time was fairly...

purna_b, May 2026
The wait time was fairly long and with the heat it was not a pleasant experience The tickets are very expensive. One would think that you’d have to Wait less. Also the tour ends with the 2 nd floor after which you are free to Go to The summit on your own. I would say just go to the 2nd level. Much much better than the summit

Tour guide was informative

Kristen_B, May 2026
We had visited the Eiffel Tower a few years ago and used Viator to book a tour. We were pleased with the tour guides knowledgeable and how were able to skip the lines. We decided to book again this time (not so much for the tour but to ensure faster entry). Out tour guide, Sol was also very knowledgeable and we learned even more however, we probably could have accessed the elevators faster in our own. I would recommend booking a tour if it’s your first time and want to learn more about its history or if you’re going during peak season to prevent queuing in long lines.

Our guide VERA got separated and never found her

Amanda_C, May 2026
Well we made it to the tower and could hardly hear our tour guide. We went to the 2 nd floor and saw Vera ( our guide) then we never found her again. She didn’t wait for us nor did she ever tell us if we got separated to meet up anywhere. So besides her telling us the Tower get painted every 7 years, we got nothing else. I googled others fact to tell my family. This was a ridiculous amount of money to pay to self GUIDE ourselves.

Easy way to skip the line...

Laraine_D, May 2026
Easy way to skip the line and great info from our guide. Would definitely recommend. Great views from 2nd floor

Eiffel Tower Visit

John_K, May 2026
Gets you to where you need to be without searching around to find your spots. Guide was helpful with some background knowledge

Spectacular Views

Ivana_B, May 2026
Visit the Eiffel Tower while in Paris is a must. Going to the top is truly an amazing experience. Paying the extra money for the tour guide was a bit of a waste. Watch youtube videos about the Tower and pay the admission fee without paying extra for the tour.

Everyone should do it I...

Tammy_J, May 2026
Everyone should do it I was so scared but it was fine never felt safer and the view is spectacular 5 star

Enjoyable Tour!

Christine_M, May 2026
Just a short walk from their office and in through 2 security areas before heading up. Our guide Gabriel was very informative and after we reached the second floor, it's completely your time to explore and go to the Summit if that is the ticket you purchased.

Smooth, the guide was great

Konstantinas_V, May 2026
It was smooth, the guides were fluent in English, funny and knowledgeable. Heads and shoulders above some of the others I've seen on the Eiffel tower. Ours was Sebastian (from Argentina)

Eiffel Tower

Julie_C, May 2026
This is a super short “tour”. Book thru the official website if you can. Guide was fun and helpful!!

The Iron Lady Visit

Rhonda_B, May 2026
Fantastic experience, informative guide and very funny too! Not only was she very educated on the history of the Eiffel Tower but she was very engaging with the group also.

Very Unhappy

Cathleen_S, May 2026
Do not schedule this on your first day of arrival. Our flight was delayed, missing connecting flight, losing a day in Paris due to rebooking and they wouldn’t change our reservation to the next day. I did not ask for a refund just change of day. We are 6 hours behind and contacted as soon as I was aware but did not hear back from anyone until I called them. Then I had to email and ask for assistance. Do not book thru this app or this non-refundable because they won’t make changes either, no understanding or exception. You can buy your tickets at the Eiffel Tower cheaper. We went at the end of the night, no wait.

Skip the lines and the stairs. Book this now :)

wendy_s, May 2026
The tour left promptly 15 minutes before the listed time. It was well organized. Emilio, our guide, was kind, personable and very informative.

Easy way to skip the line...

Michelle_T, May 2026
Easy way to skip the line and be guided to top of Eiffel Tower. Emilio was friendly and knowledgeable and explained things about the creation of the tower that I had never heard of.

Rainy Sunday afternoon

Janice_T, May 2026
Fantastic experience from beginning to end. Tour guide left us to do our own thing on second floor. We selected to travel to top and well worth the views although it was raining heavily.
