Flo was cheery, welcoming, knowledgeable, and we could hear her, a big plus! She did a great job giving us an overview of the Eiffel Tower and pointing out landmarks in the city. Would recommend!

Eiffel Tower

Lizette_R, Dec 2025
The views from the summit are amazing. We took the 4:30 tour. This gave us daylight and evening views. Our guide stayed with us for a good amount of time. Walked us all around then to the summit elevator. She did not go up, but shared all we would want to see. At 6p, the light show began & that was a neat experience, being on the 2nd level and looking up.

Make sure you're early to meeting point. Bit of a walk away from the tower. Your bags & belongings will be screened twice like at airports. No locks, knives, scissors, etc that could score the paint. It can get cold & windy up on 2nd level. The views are amazing. Natali was a fantastic guide & everything went well & precise. Good English too. Very pleased with her efforts & knowledge.

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're glad you had such a great time. Indeed, you can leave any prohibited items in our shop so that they don't confiscate them. Thanks again!

Great tour.

Marina_J, Oct 2025
We were able to get through the security checks and into the tower without standing in line for long. If you are clostrophobic or afraid of heights this tour is not for you. lol. The elevator rides to the second floor and to the top are packed in tight! We had a great guide (Janet) who was very fun and informative. The views are fantastic from the top and we were able to stay for as long as we liked.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Jeanette is so much fun. We're glad you enjoyed your visit with her! For anyone who doesn't enjoy the elevators, there's always the option to take the stairs back down but it's usually a lot quieter on the way down. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Wonderful experience

Gloria_A, Oct 2025
Very organized tour. Guide was friendly, engaging and pretty knowlegeable about the city. Nice small and fun group.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you for the lovely review. That brings a great deal of pleasure. Kind regards.

Glad we had a guide!

Beth_D, Oct 2025
It’s very helpful to have the guide direct you through the entrance and the information about the early stages of building is awesome! Kateryn was great the whole way! If you choose to go to the summit, the guide escorts you to the elevator, then says goodbye. This is fine, because once you get up there, you just want to take in the amazing view and buy a champagne for toasting to ‘the good life!’

Response from Host, Oct 2025

We're delighted you had such a good time with Kateryn. Thanks for sharing your experience. Indeed, we allow you to enjoy the summit and the rest of the tower at your own pace after the tour. You can stay as long as you like : )

Spectacular views of Paris from 281 meters

Lynda_F, Sep 2025
We did this Eiffel Tower summit tour at night and I highly recommend doing it at night. The tower was magnificent all lit up and twinkling at the beginning of each hour. The views from the summit of Paris at night are spectacular. Highly recommended!

Response from Host, Oct 2025

We love the evening tours the most! They are so special. Thank you for sharing your experience.
