Our guide, Aladin, was excellent! He was fun, knowledgeable, and engaging throughout the entire experience. He made everything interactive, offered to take group photos, and even shared some great tips and recommendations for exploring Paris. Everything felt easy, enjoyable, and well organized from start to finish. Highly recommend!
They should know that you CAN NOT get your money back if you're a few minutes late for a tour, (we were late because our flight got in late) they WILL NOT work with you so that you can join another tour. They also should know that they charge more then if you would get the tickets in person.
We paid $250 US dollars through the agency but we only paid €33.80 pp ($39.07 US) at the door. WE WILL NEVER GO THROUGH THIS AGENCY AGAIN! It was the most horrible experience I've ever had!
Have mixed feelings about this excursion. Our tour guide was funny and friendly, and provided good history on the museum however, most of it was under and outside the actual tower. We then queued in line for about an hour before we went to the top of the base, and then she had to leave us on our own. The queue to get to the very top was an additional 30 to 45 minutes. Overall, you could probably just go on your own and walk around and skip the guided tour as there was not much more that we learned other than what we knew or could have read online.
Regarding the tower itself, if you go when it’s hot and sunny, wear a hat and be prepared to wait in long lines as the elevators are crowded
Wonderful guide who was a great help with my 90 year old father. Because of his help we had a wonderful experience.
Easy to find. Knowledgeable and friendly guide. The free time exploring as much of the tower as we wanted was much appreciated!
Super quick, easy, seamless.
Guide knew her stuff. Brief history, important points. No over explaining.
Excellenct experience! Fun for all ages. It was a hot day but we we able to stay cool. Enjoyed with the whole family
This tour was excellent. Our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us some history of the Eiffel tower and current status. My family and I too the lift to the 2nd level and all the way up to the summit. Very useful, informative and fun. I will highly recommend
This tour was absolutely amazing. Not only did we get to stroll through very quickly and bypass the long lines but we also got to hear the history as well. Our guide was very educated, extremely friendly, and ensured those very young to the adults found out something very unique about the tower to remember forever.
Very knowledgeable about the Eiffel Tower and made the process very seamless. I would recommend this tour again.
Excellent experience to the top of the Eiffel Tower. Amazing views and no time limit to take it all in. Also includes access to the second floor for additional sightseeing. Highly recommended.
Tour guide had great knowledge and a good personality. Ticket office was convenient and straight forward.
Booked this tour after regular tickets were sold out. We went in the morning. On hot days, the tower may be closed in the afternoon. The tour took 2.5 hours total, at a rushed pace. The tour guide will see you off at the lift to the top and you are free to sightsee and descend at your own pace. Tour guide was informative. Tour groups seem to bypass regular lines.
The tour guide was great. Loved the smaller group size and freedom to do what we wanted once we got to the top!
We really enjoyed our guide Sol, and the history of the tower that she shared with us. We were on a time crunch due to our cruise schedule and unfortunately a large amount of our time was spent outside of the tower listening to her tell us the history. I wish she could have told the story while we walked to the tower so we had more time to enjoy up in the tower.
Sol was a great guide! Very knowledgeable about the Eiffel Tour and its history. Highly recommend although if you have limited time due to being on a cruise then know you may not see much else.
This was the biggest waste of time. Just buy the tickets at the tower. You get nothing extra from ordering from Viator. Not worth it!
Our tour was everything we could ask for. Sol, our guide, was excellent—she checked several times along the way that everyone was with her; her explanations were helpful and clear. She was friendly and still very professional. Thank tou, Sol!
The Eiffel Tower is absolutely amazing. I wouldn’t waste the money on the “tour” which consisted of sitting in a dumpy hostel equivalent and waiting for the “guide”. It was about a 15 min walk to the Tower and he barely said anything. Got the fast pass and once in, the “tour” consisted of asking what was the original color of the tower and what is the top site in Paris. That was it.
Don’t waste your money and just buy the tickets to the Tower…we would have better spent the time just waiting in the queue as we did walking to the dump of an office and back.
I did not get the service I paid for. They did not show up, and when I reached out they did not respond. I ended up having to purchase the eiffel tower tickets from another vendor. I also do not know how to get the money back from this trip.
Explain that there’s a meeting point you have to go to prior to the tour to get tickets and that it’s not at the actual site.
Enjoy the experience. We had a wonderful wonderful guide Aladdin. Very informative and knowledgeable. Glad I booked this experience.
They’ll guide was very knowledgeable and engaging. So glad we chose to go to the summit! Recommend this tour.
May be crowded but worth it! Views are amazing from the second level! Be sure to walk the circumference to see all of Paris.
12:15 got cancelled due to heat; tour made a new reservation for Monday, 6/29 at 14:45; excellent tour personnel, very efficient and accommodating where they could.
Catalina was a great tour guide. She was very informative. She gave excellent tips for navigating the Eiffel Tower.
It enjoyed touring the Eiffel tower and learning the rich history of the monument and the surrounding areas. It was great to be able to see major buildings in Paris from the tower.
Leonardo was so much fun and answered all sorts of questions from The Eiffel Tower to the music festival and city. His love for Paris and its history was evident and highly recommend!
We had a wonderful experience on our Eiffel Tower tour. The guide was very punctual, everything was exactly as described, and the tour went smoothly from start to finish. We were with our kids (3 & 4), and everyone had a great time.
Abbie provided great information on the tower. Awesome to have fun photos which she showed us where to do.
