We were met by a very informative guide who got us through the gates & gave us lots of information on the history & construction of the Tower. We then went up on our own & despite the hoards of people, loved the experience.

Didn’t have our tickets or tour guide’s tickets

Jennifer_M, Apr 2026
My sons and I had a horrible experience with this tour. We showed up and were told by the tour guide that the tour operator only provided her two of our three tickets, even though she could see that we had paid for three tickets. I had received a confirmation of our reservation when we paid, then again one day prior to the tour, and again an hour prior to the tour. The tour guide put me on the phone with the tour operator, and the tour operator acknowledged it was their fault, but that they couldn’t do anything about it, and that we wouldn’t all be able to go on the tour. In addition, the tour guide herself did not have a ticket, so she sent the rest of the tour guests up on their own. So the rest of the people effectively paid a lot more for general admission tickets without getting any sort of tour or history about the tower. In the end, we did get a refund, but it was devastating as it was a bucket list item for my sons and we couldn’t enjoy this together. There are a lot of negative reviews about this tour, I should’ve listened.

Excellent guide with a lot of amazing historical information. She was very attentive and paid close attention to every aspect of our trip.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

It’s wonderful to know that our guide Alexa provided such amazing historical insights while also being attentive and ensuring every detail of your visit was taken care of. Discovering the Eiffel Tower with a guide is a fantastic way to explore more historical information with breathtaking views from the summit.Glad that you enjoyed every aspect of your trip.

Rodolfo_S, Mar 2026
Alexandra gave us a quick tour of the Eiffel Tour and its history. We were able to explore the Tour at night which was an amazing experience. We went in March so pack a warm jacket. It’s cool and windy on the summit and 2nd floor

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! Really glad that you enjoyed the tour and even a quick tour can be special when it’s filled with the right stories and insights. So happy that Alexandra has done her job right. Experiencing Eiffel Tower at night is surely an amazing experience. Thank you as well for mentioning your visit in March and the tip about bringing a warm jacket. That’s very helpful for future travelers, especially since it can get quite cool and windy up at the summit and even on the second floor. Regards, Natalia

Thanks for the review . Happy to hear everything was all round excellent and that you enjoyed the tour with our guide Alexandra . It’s always great to visit Eiffel tower with a guide to get a wholesome experience. Regards, Natalia

Proceed with caution

Michael_Y, Oct 2025
We booked and time was drastically changed the night before with only notice sent on rarely used app. I was called two minutes before tour saying your out of luck. They did agree to a refund which was the right thing to do. it may be fine as long as you are properly notified of time change and agree to it.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

We apologize for the inconvenience. Our team contacted you regarding the time change, and you agreed to the updated schedule. Unfortunately, you were unable to reach the spot on time. We appreciate your understanding and hope your future experiences with us are smooth.

Teeeible Company

REBBECCA_C, Aug 2025
We went to our spot to meet 30 min early. They did Not show up another company took pity on us and let us tag along with them when we waited forever and very frustrated

Response from Host, Aug 2025

We’re genuinely sorry you feel this way, but we must clarify something important for you and for future travelers: no legitimate tour company “takes pity” and lets guests join for free — especially at the Eiffel Tower, where tickets are tightly controlled. Unfortunately, Paris is known for street vendors and opportunistic “companies” who mislead travelers into buying new or fake tickets. This is likely what happened here. For your safety and peace of mind, always use Viator’s customer support or reach out directly to us at tourrr.com if you face any difficulty. That way, you’re protected and never left in the hands of fraudulent resellers. We take pride in our punctuality, professionalism, and service, and thousands of happy guests confirm this. Future travelers: please trust only your official booking confirmation and your Viator/tourrr.com contacts — not strangers at the meeting point.

Michael_A, Aug 2025
Guide was late arriving but otherwise a great adventure. The Summit is a must. Skip the lines is a must as well.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the Summit and the skip-the-line experience. We’re sorry about the late arrival of the guide, and we’ll work on ensuring better punctuality. Delighted the rest of your adventure was memorable!

Great views over Paris

Response from Host, Aug 2025

We’re so pleased you had a wonderful experience! Thank you for appreciating our guide’s efforts and enjoying the history shared before heading up on your own. The views from the Summit are truly unforgettable, and we’re glad you got to enjoy them! Team Tourrr

Not worth the money

Patricia_H, Jul 2025
The guide didn’t have the flag as stated in the directions. I had to contact Viator to find the guide. He walked us up to the entrance he said. Enjoy your day and left us to walk in the entry point for skip the line ticket.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

We’re sorry to hear this was not the experience you expected. The guide should have been clearer and stayed with you longer. Your comments are important and will help us improve how we communicate and manage group entry in the future.

Alexandra Was Great!

ERIC_S, Jul 2025
Alexandra Was Great! We were running a little late and she called on WhatsApp to find out our ETA. Definitely get WhatsApp. Very commonly used the EU.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

We’re delighted to hear this! Alexandra truly goes the extra mile for our guests, and it’s great that her quick WhatsApp communication made your experience smoother. Thank you for recommending her and sharing your tip about WhatsApp in Europe!

Great Views, Glad We Were Able to Get Tickets

Rachel_C, Jul 2025
The description said skip the line, which is not true. You have the same wait and same access point as everyone else, only with a guide which wasn't necessary. Our guide was very informative and had great energy, but overall, we didn't need help finding our way to the top of the tower. Overall, if we hadn't booked this experience, we wouldn't have been able to get tickets, so it was worth it in the end. Like everywhere else in Paris in July, there were huge crowds, half of which were Instagram influences trying to do a photo shoot among the throngs of people. The views were amazing. We had fun on the glass floors.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for your detailed review! We’re glad our guide’s energy and knowledge added to the experience, and even happier that you were able to secure tickets to such a busy landmark. Your feedback about skip-the-line expectations is noted, and we’ll continue to make our descriptions clearer.

Must do!

Kristen_G, Jul 2025
Alexandra was a great guide! She was funny and full of personality. The Eiffel Tour experience was phenomenal.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

We love hearing this! Alexandra’s humor and personality make the Eiffel Tower tour even more special, and we’re thrilled you had such a phenomenal experience with her. Thank you for your kind words! team Tourrr

Breathtaking view. Price 3-4x through all second party vendors

Charif_S, Jun 2025
Can’t visit Paris without visiting the Eiffel Tower. The view from the summit is breathtaking especially at sunset (plan to be there 1 hour prior to sunset). The visit of the tower itself is 5 ⭐️. The reason I only gave 3 is because the guide is not helpful and the tour is 3-4 x more expensive than buying tickets directly from official Eiffel Tower website. There is a catch though , on official website tickets sell almost immediately so you are left with no option but to buy through second party vendors.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

We’re glad you loved the Eiffel Tower views—they truly are breathtaking! You’re right: official tickets are limited and sell out very quickly. As licensed partners, we provide guaranteed access, small-group guidance, and support, which explains the price difference. OTA and platform fee. We appreciate your honest feedback.

Expensive, but offers “skip the line” and summit access

Jennifer_C, May 2025
This tour offers no information, it is just a “skip the line” sort of booking, and will get you to the summit as well as the other floors. Our guide was a half hour late, and we had arrived early so it was a long time waiting in the cold! There was a woman there sending groups in and told us our guide was on the way and kept updating us that he was coming. It would be nice to have learned some info about the Eiffel Tower but that is not part of what this event offers.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for your review of the Eiffel Tower Guided Tourrr. We’re glad you enjoyed the convenience of skip-the-line entry and summit access — two features that are not always easy to secure. We’re sorry to hear that your guide arrived later than expected. Our team on-site did their best to keep you updated, but we understand waiting in the cold isn’t ideal. Please rest assured this is not the standard we strive for, and we’re addressing it internally. This tour is indeed guided, and our guides share insights along the way before taking you to the summit. It sounds like the wait may have overshadowed that experience, and we’ll use your feedback to ensure future guests feel the benefit of having a guide throughout their visit. We’re delighted you still reached the summit and hope the unforgettable views left a lasting impression. We’d be honored to welcome you back for another Paris experience soon.

Unnecessary “Tour”

MaryAnn_G, May 2025
The “tour” is a guide meeting you a block from the Eiffel Tower and walking you to the ticketing counter. If the tour companies didn’t buy all the tickets to resell them at twice the price, we could have gotten tickets ourselves. Booking confirmation had two different meeting addresses list. Our guide was not at either of them. We finally contacted support and he immediately sent a WhatsApp message with a completely different address. He asked why we went to the other addresses. When I showed him the email he shrugged and said he didn’t meet people there because that’s where all the tours meet. It was fine but completely unnecessary tour.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for sharing your feedback on your Eiffel Tower Guided Tourrr. We’re glad to hear that your visit to the Eiffel Tower went smoothly, even if you felt the guided part wasn’t essential. Just to clarify: our guides don’t “buy” tickets at the counter — they simply scan the pre-purchased entry tickets to make your access faster and easier. Regarding the meeting point, we provide a single confirmed location in the booking confirmation. It’s possible that mixing up instructions led to the confusion, but our team was happy to assist right away via WhatsApp so you didn’t miss your tour. While some travelers find the guide’s insights and stress-free entry invaluable, we understand it may not feel the same for everyone. We still hope the magic of the Eiffel Tower made your visit memorable!

Jen_W, Apr 2025
Great way to get a reservation when sold out. All they do it meet you and take you in to get in line.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Thank you for your wonderful review. We wish to host you again

It went well but I do not recommend

Rogerio_S, Jun 2025
The location of the meeting point was changed and we were not notified. I had to contact the company to resolve this problem. Our ticket was bought at the time at the regular ticket shop by the guide. The guide itself was friendly and efficient and was fundamental for us to have access to the top of the tower, which was a positive aspect.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Obrigado pelo seu comentário. Confirmamos que, devido a circunstâncias operacionais, o ponto de encontro foi alterado, mas lamentamos que a comunicação não tenha sido clara. Reconhecemos o esforço do nosso guia em garantir o acesso ao topo e vamos rever os nossos processos para melhorar no futuro.

Possible refund?

Lucie_L, May 2025
If you're referring to the emails you forwarded to me. I had 3 addresses to collect my tickets: 24 January I have the address: 9 with de la Bourbonnais, then another email: 19 ave de la Bourbonnais and arrive 30 min in advance we went several times to 9 and 19 ave de la Bourbonnais! We were not alone others were also looking. Finally we left because we had another activity planned in p.m. Finally another email to us at: 14 ave de la Bourbonnais! I paid $149.56 for this activity and had to buy back tickets. I'm really disappointed.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Merci pour votre retour. Les adresses que vous mentionnez (9, 14 et 19 Avenue de la Bourdonnais) se trouvent toutes à quelques pas les unes des autres — en fait, le 9 et le 14 sont directement en face. Notre guide était bien présent au point de rendez-vous, mais il semble que vous ayez décidé de partir avant de le rencontrer. Nous regrettons cette confusion et reverrons la façon dont les informations de rendez-vous sont communiquées, mais le service que vous aviez réservé était bien disponible ce jour-là.
