Seamless and easy - tour guide was excellent and got exactly what we paid for. So many similar tours like to this - choose this one and no issues.

I thought I had booked to go to the summit but when we got to the second floor our guide said thete was no booking to the summit and she wouldn’t let us go. Very disappointing as the ticket implied summit was an option.

False advertising and false promises and charged 400% cost and did not even provide the service. Requested refund and no one is even talking and pointing fingers between provider and booking company. Should never take this trip. Viator you lost a Customer for ever

This was the biggest waste of money that it was insulting. We met about a block from the Eiffel Tower and walked over. There was no line if you wanted toto purchase tickets and go right up, but we had to wait in a line with our tickets purchased in advance. The guide told us very little information. Most of the information you could’ve gotten in the first paragraph of Wikipedia. He brought us in and up to the first level and left us. That was it. Everyone who wasn’t in groups was just walking up to the ticket counter, buying their tickets and coming right in at the same time that we were. Don’t waste your money.

Mattieu was very kind and knowledgeable. No issues. We got the cruise option - you can use for anytime after your Eiffel Tower trip (time/date), which was super convenient.

If you are looking for a detailed tour with information about the Eiffel Tower this is not the tour to book. While it was nice have the guide walk us directly up to the entry point, and tell us where to catch the boat that was all he did. It seemed like a lot of money for what we got. Also our guide told us that the boats left every half hour and that was false. It was more like every hour. The boat tour portion was great! I would suggest booking a cheaper tour with a guide that is more knowledgeable.

We are sorry that the experience was not entirely to your satisfaction. We would like to point out that you had access to an audio guide through our downloadable mobile app, as clearli indicated on our website. We are glad to know that you enjoyed the cruise.
We hope to welcome yopu again and that we can regain your trust in us.
Kin regards,

Everything went smoothly and Nina was knowledgeable and a pleasure. I’m not sure it saved a lot of time in this case because you only ‘skip’ the initial line. The Tower itself was great!

Atttape touriste !
Le guide fait seulement nous apporter du point de rencontre à l’ascenseur.
La tour est WOW mais nous payons pour une activité que nous pourrions avoir considérablement moins cher avec la tour Eiffel direct.
Vraiment déçu

From the second-floor tower, it is a great spot to take photos and observe the grandeur of the city. The boat also allows you to explore
