Good arrangements, short walk to the Eiffel Tower. Chloe was a very good guide, and got us through two layers of security and into the right place for our tour. She gave good background information, and good advice on how to maximize our time.

Heartbroken

Anndora_F, Jun 2026
My experience was a disaster because I was looking forward to this event, our plane deviated and we were struck in Germany and all they offered us was a room for the nite, missed our eurostar train, which was 1100 dollars and this summit excess in paris....heartbroken we didn't arrive in London until yesterday around 2pm

Great experience!

Tara_M, May 2026
The tour guide was nice and helpful. Loved being able to go all the way to the top and get those fantastic views! On the way down we stopped for lunch and souvenirs. It was a great experience! We spent 2 hours having lunch in a restaurant with breathtaking views and incredible food and service.

Easy and perfect!

Sarah_H, May 2026
Marseilles (If that’s how you spell his name??) was a wonderful tour guide. He gave us lots of information about the Eiffel Tower…but was to the point and quick so that we could explore on our own and enjoy the summit at our own pace. Thank you!!

It was excellent. Marie,...

Dayle_B, May 2026
It was excellent. Marie, our tour guide, was very informative and managed to keep our group together, midst all the other tourists.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Hello, Thank you very much for your kind review!

Meeting Place

Elinor_R, May 2026
It was not totally clear that the meeting place was not at the Eiffel Tower. We were not the only party who went to the tower looking for the group. Also, a very difficult place to keep a tour together.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Hello, Thank you for your feedback and for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear there was any confusion regarding the meeting point. The exact address is clearly indicated on the booking confirmation and voucher, and we always recommend reviewing these details carefully before the tour. That said, we understand that in a busy area like the Eiffel Tower surroundings, it can sometimes still be missed or overlooked. We also appreciate your comment about the challenges of managing groups in such a crowded location. Our guides do their best to keep everything running smoothly despite the high traffic in the area. We hope you were still able to enjoy your visit to the Eiffel Tower and the experience overall. Kind regards, The Paris TRIP Team

Disappointed and Misled

Christine_H, May 2026
Extremely Disappointing Experience. false advertising as the "tour" was basically a very nice lady who walked us from the tour office to the very long line to enter security and then the Eiffel Tower elevator line. She stopped to speak a few times, but it was very difficult to hear her and the "tour" was basically take us to the 2nd floor and talk for a few minutes and leave us to fend for ourselves. There was a couple in the group who were on a cruise and who had to leave before we even got to the elevators so they would not miss their ship. The timing was not as promised and there was no plan since 2 of the 4 elevators were out of service. Huge expense at around $120 per person for tickets that cost under $40.

Response from Host, May 2026

Dear Christine, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the experience did not fully meet your expectations. Access to the Eiffel Tower can sometimes be affected by operational issues beyond our control, such as elevators being temporarily out of service or unusually long security lines, which can unfortunately lead to longer waiting times. On the day of your visit, 2 of the 4 elevators were indeed out of service, which significantly impacted access times for all visitors. We would also like to clarify that for Eiffel Tower summit tours, the guided portion includes accompaniment from the meeting point through the entry process and up to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower. From there, guests continue independently to the summit, as indicated in the activity description. We regret if this was not as clear as expected during your booking experience. Regarding pricing, Eiffel Tower ticket prices alone are different from booking through an agency such as Paris TRIP. Our services also include reservation management, timed entry organization, coordination, local support, and guided assistance throughout the beginning of the experience. We truly appreciate your comments, as they help us continue improving both the organization and clarity of our tours in Paris. Warm regards, The Paris TRIP Team

Best views!

blbeach, May 2026
This trip was so worth it for the history and views. Going to the summit is the best views! The guide was great but could have benefited with some sort of audio

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed the history, the incredible views, and especially the experience of reaching the summit of the Eiffel Tower. We also appreciate your comment regarding the audio during the tour. Guest feedback is very valuable to us, and we will certainly take your suggestion into consideration as we continue improving our guided tours in Paris. Thank you again for choosing Paris TRIP, and we hope to welcome you back soon for another memorable experience in Paris! Warm regards, The Paris TRIP Team

Bruce_A, May 2026
Going to the top was worth it. My wife is afraid of heights but wemt up and did fine with it. Felt safe and secure Guissepe was a great guide

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re very happy to hear that visiting the summit of the Eiffel Tower was such a memorable moment for both of you. It’s wonderful to know that your wife felt safe and comfortable during the visit, even with a fear of heights. We’re also glad that Guiseppe helped make the experience enjoyable and reassuring with his guidance and support. Thank you again for choosing Paris TRIP for your Eiffel Tower tour in Paris. We hope to welcome you back again soon for more unforgettable experiences! Warm regards, The Paris TRIP Team

Eiffel Tower Birthday toast

Amy_C, May 2026
It was a great experience, even in the rain. Guide was knowledgeable, funny, and very helpful. The ride up was well explained, and went quicker than expected.

Great tour.

Jim_M, May 2026
Be sure to arrive at the office and not the tower itself. But once we got together with our guide, it was great Theodora was very friendly and knowledgeable. Would do it again.

Tower tour

Jay_R, May 2026
Be on time the walk is very short to the tower. The guide got us in a very fast manner. I helped being early so we could get to the top with very little wait.

Eiffel Tower summit

ian_c, Apr 2026
Allow time to arrive promptly at the meeting point. Friendly welcome and good info shared by the guide. We hardly queued at all. Would recommend this tour.

Worth booking a tour and skipping the line

Suzi_W, Apr 2026
Fab guided tour of the Eiffel Tower - great communication, started on time, knowledgeable and friendly guide - def worth the money

Just gets you a ticket to the top

Patrick_B, Apr 2026
If you expect a tour with information, not for you. This is just a ticket to the top level if the official tickets are sold out. No real information provided, just shepherding the group to the security stations. Now the top level was a great view and ultimately if you need a way to the top, this works. Just don’t expect a tour. In fairness, poor to even try and call it a tour, each level is so crowded no real way to do a group tour.

Great Experience

Vincent_D, Apr 2026
The guide was excellent and the Eiffel Tower is amazing. The meeting location was a short walk away from the tower.

Cloe was fun and...

FERNANDO_A, Mar 2026
Cloe was fun and entertained us all while going through the Eiffel Tower. Lighthearted and easy going.. and full of fun facts. thank you!

Eiffel Tower tour

Samantha_H, Mar 2026
Our tour guide was very nice and provide the perfect amount of information and history. We would recommend.

Skip the Guide

Lynn_B, Dec 2025
The Eiffel Tower is great. Just not sure why we had to wait to walk to it with a tour guide who went her own was after security. Would have hoped there would have been a bit of history given on the way. Would advise to just order tickets from the website.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Dear Lynn, Hi, We are sorry to hear what happened, but to clarify to anyone reading this, you left the group after the security check on your own, our guide was waiting with all other clients and stayed with them for 90 minutes and... We feel this review very unfair, had you stayed with the group, you would have indeed learned and be provided with historical comments... Best regards

Skip the line with Viator

Sabrina_D, Dec 2025
Our guide was fantastic and paying extra to skip the line saved us tons of time to do other activities. Our guide was super nice, knowledgeable and friendly. It was also super easy to find the office where we met our guide.

Our guide was very...

Jason_S, Dec 2025
Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. I would highly recommend this tour in the early evening when you can see the tower sparkle.

Farid_G, Dec 2025
1. Guide had excellent knowledge however did not cater to slow walking medically impaired and my wife struggled to keep up with the pace. There was a situation with the lifts from level 1 to the ground floor and we waited nearly an hour. Tower staff did not seem to know what was going on and crowd handling could be better.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Dear Farid, Hi, Thank you for providing a review and helping us improve. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the guided part. In regards to the pace of the tour, did you indicate this to the tour guide while walking ? They most surely are unware until you say so. Additionally, tours have strict timings to enter and are not suitable for recommended for persons with walking disabilities. Nevertheless, we always ask our guides to make sure that everyone is comfortable. We will make sure to provide feedback to the guide in question. We hope that you enjoyed our beautiful city, Best regards, Paris'Trip team

On top of the world!

Eboni_W, Oct 2025
Guide Emmanuel was great. He gave just enough information and it wasn’t too overwhelming. We had time to take the best pictures. Great way to spend the night!

Weather was a negative...

Barbara_M, Oct 2025
Weather was a negative factor. Very cold and rainy, extra strong winds which blew some of us off our feet and our tour only took us up one level as travel to next levels prohibited. This was an expensive tour and we only experienced about one quarter of it.

View from the top

Jonathan_S, Oct 2025
Booked the summit Tour - guide Louise was phenomenal - covered all the bases in visiting the tower. The start location is a 10m walk from the tower and the staff at the office is very helpful. Note - they have a seating area if you need to wait for your tour.
