This tour was very well done. Emily was our tour guide and was not only very personable and friendly, she was a wealth of information and made the tour very interesting. I highly recommend booking a tour rather than doing it on your own. You did not disappoint.

Eiffel Tower Tour

Kristi_S, Jun 2026
This was great day at the Eiffel Tower! Emmanuel, our tour guide, was friendly and so knowledgeable. He made sure everyone had a great time and saw everything they wanted to see! The tour agency was so accommodating when we missed our Eiffel Tower entrance time. They did everything they could to accommodate and get us to the tour !

Leave time to get to...

Deborah_S, Jun 2026
Leave time to get to meeting place. Guide was very informative and entertaining. Bruno was enjoyed by both teenagers and adults in our group.

Tower is amazing; the tour isn't.

R_G, Jun 2026
Tower is an amazing experience. Guide was avg at best; no dramatic info provided ; the tour felt like it is just to uncharge for the summit access. Waste of money. Get in line for the tower tickets to the summit a month before the intended date and its < 50 bucks; and here the charges were > 100 bucks.

Astounding!

Patrick_O, Jun 2026
Using this tour was awesome! We were able to skip to the front or close to the front of the lines. Tour guide was excellent….Bruno had so much history.

Great tour, well done

Way too overpriced

Alina_D, Jun 2026
WOW I didn’t expect this to be such an overpriced experience. This is not a guided tour- the guide speaks for maybe 10 mins and then leaves you on your own to explore. Highly recommend just purchasing directly through the Eiffel Tower instead of being charged over double what it would cost to book directly!

Easy access to Eiffel Tower summit!

emzenyoga, May 2026
Tbh we only booked this because the tickets were sold out on the day we wanted to go. That being said, I'm really glad we did! We arrived at the tour operator address, were checked in and handed over to our guide Emilio, who was very friendly and personable 5 Stars!! He led us right where we needed to go, and gave us great info along the way. We were glad to be in a group, because with all the new safety measures it's not that clear where to go! I'm glad we booked summit, because that option was not available for other groups who had hoped to upgrade later. Emilio guided us up to the 2nd floor lift, loaded us on the elevator and we were on our way to the top! Like clockwork! Thank you!

Eiffel Tower guided tour

Lourdes_R, May 2026
It’s about a three block walk to Eiffel Tower from meeting place. It was well organized and our guide was superb. Very informative. It’s the best way to see and experience the Tower

Eiffel tower

Cindy_A, May 2026
Emilio was nice but not very efficient in getting his voice loud to project so you could hear in the group.

Great way to see Eiffel Tower

MS_M, May 2026
Tour guide was helpful and knowledgeable. Very easy to enter Eiffel Tower with group. Ticket location was near the tower

Great Eiffel tour

Louis_S, May 2026
The instructions where to meet were perfect. The guide led our small group of 5 and she was well informed.

Not worth it.

Phil_D, May 2026
The trip to the top of the Eiffel Tower is amazing, but there was little additional value added by this tour. Plan ahead and get your tickets direct. You’ll save time and money. You meet at the tour operator’s location and walk to the Tower wasting time going through their voucher redemption process and walking to the Tower. Furthermore, we weren’t able to fit on the funicular to the second floor with the rest of our group and despite being told by our guide that he would wait for us on the second floor he was nowhere to be found when we got there.

The tour was very good...

Jason_T, May 2026
The tour was very good and the gentleman leading the tour was very knowledgeable and friendly. I would recommend them.

Easy Navigation

Rita_M, May 2026
We took the later tour and was able to walk right in and get on the elevator. The guide was very helpful in navigating us to where we needed to go. The view is unbelievable.

No communication but once...

Victor_K, May 2026
No communication but once we got it figured out, it was awesome. Ended up taking a later tour and the guide was awesome.

Guide was useless

Irene_S, May 2026
The guide basically took us to the Eiffel Tower and left us. We could get to the Eiffel Tower by ourselves without paying do much money for the guided tour

Terrible Customer Service

gloriaoates, May 2026
Viator subcontracted this summit access activity through another group, whose location is very difficult to find and a substantial walk from the Tower: PARIS LOUNGE 15 at 38 Av. de la Bourdonnais, 75007 Paris. When we realized we might be running late for our appointed time, I reached out through the appropriate channel on the Viator app to notify them and to ask if there was any alteration that we could make (such as meet at the Tower, since we were already there on the second level). No one responded to me, even though I reached out several times. As expected, we arrived late and missed the departure time. The front desk clerk was rude and not accommodating at all when we requested to go at a later time. I later asked for a refund (through the Viator app) and it was refused. For four of us, we paid $550.00

Our guide was...

Selena_P, May 2026
Our guide was knowledgeable and helped us quickly navigate the long lines to get to the top. I highly recommend and will do it again.

Fantastic

Narelle_C, May 2026

Eiffel Elegance

Nancy_V, May 2026
Go and Just Do It!! This is another must do Paris activity!! The views are spectacular - even in the rain!

Delivered as promised

Thomas_H, May 2026
Viator delivered on everything they promised in their ad. Good guide that got us into the Eiffel Tower and through the special elevator to the 2nd platform and summit.

Eiffel Tower - Wow!

Lisa_F, May 2026
Just a wonderful tour, for the price. Our guide, Leo, was very knowledgeable and personable. Beautiful views!

Perfect tour

Deborah_W, May 2026
Great views from 2nd level. Emily was great guide. She had pictures of the whole building and history of the Tower

Emily shows us the Eiffel Tower

Michael_M, May 2026
Emily, our guide did a good job of keeping the group together and giving us the history of the tower. Guiding us through security and up the elevator saved a lot of effort and hassle. Of course the Eiffel Tower was spectacular!

Well worth a visit!

Yvonne_D, May 2026
Not overly informative, But well worth a visit. Amazing views from the summit even though the weather was a bit iffy.

Abbi was Awesome

Mark_C, May 2026
Abbi was a fantastic tour guide. Easy in. Well organized. Very knowledgable. Terrific person. Wonderful job.

Not trustworthy

Francis_M, May 2026
We couldn’t make it and they wouldn’t refund our money. Do not use as I called and tried to get my money back. Lady I spoke to said nothing she can do.

Response from Host, May 2026

Dear customer, We are very sorry for this experience. We try to be as clear as possible in our cancellation policy, accessible before you book .Our sales are final, we cannot reschedule your booking once you make it or refund it since the tickets are not flexible. We hope you will be visiting Paris in the future and we would be glad to welcome you.

Meeting place was buried in the invite email. Missed our appointment.

John_F, May 2026
We weren’t able to visit the Eiffel Tower. The instructions on where to meet were buried in the email. Instructions were to view the ticket, which was an Apple Wallet ticket and contained no info on where to meet. Partially my own fault, but instructions were confusing.

Response from Host, May 2026

Dear customer, We are sorry to see that you could not participate in the tour. Please note that the meeting point is written on the product (even before you book), and on the confirmation you receive by mail. We are sorry if it did not seem clear enough but we confirm that we do our best to inform our customers. We remain at your disposal if you have any questions. Kind regards

A Must

James_D, May 2026
A must when going to the Eiffel Tower. Informative guide. We bypassed the long lines. Get there on time.

Mediocre Tour

Elizabeth_F, Apr 2026
The tour guide was hard to hear and directions were confusing. We still stood in line. The guide was concerned about whether we were satisfied and gave us several opportunities to ask questions.
