Join an amazing two-hour journey climbing up the most famous Parisian landmark with an informative, friendly, and engaging guide. Skip-the-line to access Gustave Eiffel’s iconic Tower, and marvel at the “City of Light” sparkling against the inky darkness of the sky at night, as you can also continue to the summit on your own after the tour.
The tour will begin at Le Bistro Parisien, in front of Port de la Bourdonnais, as the guide will fill you in about this centerpiece, which was designed by the engineer Gustave Eiffel and why this is also the most popular attraction in the world.
You’ll bypass these notoriously long lines to ascend to the 2nd floor. Listen to the guide as he reveals some of the interesting stories about the tower's construction and history of how useful it was in World War 1 and how it was almost torn down and sold for scraps.
Your guide will also share tips and advice on the best ways to visit the city's major monuments. From there as you arrive at the 2nd level, you’ll be stunned by the bird’s-eye view you’ll see. The panoramic view of the iconic monuments such as the Notre-Dame de Paris and the golden domes of Les Invalides, views of the Egyptian obelisk on Place de la Concorde and the magnificent roof of the Grand Palais.
The guide will also point out the Louvre Museum and Sacré Coeur basilica, as it’ll be a different perspective when viewing from the top, along with other landmarks such as the Pompidou Centre and Pont Alexander III bridge over the River Seine.
After the tour ends, the guide will then leave you to enjoy the Eiffel tower at your own pace. You’ll also have the chance to ascend to the summit for even more breath-taking views and spend as much time up there as you'd like. Enjoy beautiful, sweeping views across the city before peeking inside Gustave Eiffel's apartment at the top of the tower. If you wish, you can treat yourself by purchasing a drink from the champagne bar at the top of the tower.
Later on, your way down, make sure to stop by on the 1st level to walk on a new glass floor, which is 200 feet above the ground.
