Experience Highlights

Skip the steps on this guided tour of the Eiffel Tower and zip right to the second floor to spend more time enjoying what the inside of the tower has to offer. On the second level, your guide can help you find Notre Dame, the Louvre, the Sacré-Cœur in Montmartre, the Grand Palais, Les Invalides, and other popular landmarks, as well as recommendations for what to eat while you're there. When your tour is done, you can stay as long as you like and take the elevator to the very top if you've paid for the summit upgrade. On your way down, you can check out the first level to view Paris through a glass floor, visit the exhibits, and more. If you’ve opted for the Seine River cruise upgrade, you will also receive a ticket for a one-hour boat cruise. Your ticket will be emailed to you after you check in for your tour. (If you don’t have it an hour after the tour starts, check your spam folder.) Your cruise ticket is good for a year, so enjoy the ride when convenient.

What’s included

  • Panoramic views of famous Paris landmarks other than the Eiffel Tower
  • Take our Paris shuttle for convenient transportation, included with your tour.
  • Time to explore on your own
  • Optional upgrade for a River Seine boat cruise

Step by Step

Elevator Ride
Take a smooth glass-elevator ride straight to the second floor, as your guide points out what to look at out the windows as you zip up the tower.

Second floor of the Eiffel Tower
On the second floor, you’ll get views of Paris you can’t get anywhere else, starring some of the city’s other greatest landmarks: Notre Dame, the Louvre, Sacré-Cœur in Montmartre, the Grand Palais, Les Invalides, and more. Stay as long as you like enjoying the views, shopping, and dining at one of the many restaurants. Ask your guide for recommendations.

Upgrade: Eiffel Tower Summit
Reach the highest level at 905 feet to peek inside Gustave Eiffel’s office and finish your climb with a glass of champagne.

Upgrade: Seine River Boat Cruise
Your flexible ticket is good any time during your trip, so you can see the most famous sites of Paris as you take a scenic cruise.

    We booked this tour knowing, unfortunately, there were no "skip the line" tickets. We ended up waiting about 45min- 1hr with our tour guide, Mohsina. She helped make the time go by faster with information and facts on the Eiffel Tower, which was great. She was very knowledgeable and personable, but unfortunately spoke quickly and I felt like I missed a little of the information. We took the elevator to the summit and enjoyed seeing the views of Paris.

    To my knowledge, there are no "skip the line" tours at the Eiffel Tower. We booked knowing this, and indeed did have to wait (approx. 45 min- 1 hour) with our tour guide, Mohsina. She kept us interested with Eiffel Tower history and facts, which helped to make the time go by faster. While she was very personable and informative, she did speak very quickly, so I felt like I missed a little bit of the info. Unfortunately the weather was very cold and windy, but we still enjoyed being there and seeing such an iconic Paris landmark!

    This is an excellent way to see the tower. Martin Vidal is an excellent guide, speaking french and english. He takes away the stress of the queues and security. He gives a thorough and appropriately humourous account of the history of the tower. Highly recommended
