Itinerary

Arc de Triomphe
Admission included

A unique viewpoint. From the top of the panoramic terrace, your eyes sweep over the whole of Paris. The revisited Antiquity. Architect Jean-François Chalgrin was inspired by the Roman Arch of Titus in a single arch, but went beyond it by exceptional dimensions (about 50 m high, 45 m long and 22 m wide) and abandoning columns. A key place of major national events. Wanted by Napoleon in 1806, the Arc de Triomphe was inaugurated in 1836 by French king, Louis-Philippe, who dedicated it to the armies of the Revolution and the Empire. The Unknown Soldier was buried at the base of the arch in 1921. The flame of remembrance is rekindled every day at 18:30.

Great view but elevator wasn’t working and no refund

Arc de Triump elevator was out of service and my family member with me is 80 years old who couldn’t climb over 200 steps up. A refund was not optional which is horrible! The view was cool but if the facility can’t handle disabilities than a refund should be given!

We did not have to wait...

We did not have to wait in any line. Got right in and went right to the top. Went later in the night and got to see the Eiffel Tower light up from the top! Was amazing

Not what I expected

I don’t usually have negative comments about experiences through viator but the communication was hard with this one. There is nothing special about this. You can go to each place and purchase tickets at lower cost. This does not include any guide. Just instructions on how to get to the Arc. It needed to include name of Boat for cruise. Didn’t realize until hours of trying to figure it out, that there was a link at bottom of email. When I tried to contact the person, no one was available. I did appreciate the communication of needing to change date visit due to Pope visit. Save money and visit these place on your own

Worth the hike up to the top. No guide or audio but still worth the ticket.

Had fast entry, climb to the top a hard slog but totally worth it. No guide or audio but not really needed - YouTube for history on the monument if u need to.

Arc de Triomphe

The signage to take the tunnel and get to the site is not well explained. Signage in the tunnel is also confusing to understand what line to get into. We had a bit of trouble downloading our tickets at the site, despite having no issue earlier when we tested. The lady who was scanning tickets had an instruction sheet for Viator and we finally got the tickets downloaded to the phone. It was a bit nerve racking holding the line. Also, the elevator was not working and we had to walk up 200 stairs to go up to the first level, and another 80 stairs to reach the terrace. It was a very warm day and physically challenging. I had to stop several times and felt claustrophobic with barely any room for people to get by me in the staircase. We had no clue if we would be reimbursed if we did not take the tour due to the elevator being broken. Hence why I gave it a rating of 3. Loved the history, the meaning of the site and wonderful views. Would not recommend if medical challenges and elevator not working.

the ticket sent by Viator was found to be invalid when checked by the security personnel at Arc de Triomphe.

1. the ticket is more than 2x the price vs a direct purchase at the Arc De Triomphe ticket counter. 2. worse yet, the ticket/barcode sent by Viator was not valid when checked by security personnel at the entrance. maybe it isn’t a scam but for sure i paid for a ticket that couldn’t be used. 3. absolutely do not recommend purchasing tickets from Viator. i would like a refund.

Skip The Line As Promised!!!

We had a great experience visiting the Arc de Triomphe with these tickets. Everything worked exactly as promised — we walked right in, skipped the long lines, and went straight up to the top. The whole process was easy, and we felt like very prepared travelers as we walked past everyone waiting in line! The views were absolutely worth it. I would definitely recommend booking this way.
