This tour is a great balance of guided and self-exploration at the top of the Tower. The guide explains the background to construction and ongoing maintenance before guiding the small group to the top (with no time limit for staying at the top). Having a pre-bought ticket reduces hassle of queuing, and our guide Maud was great fun and helped find the right spots for family photos - thank you :-)
The guide was great but the crowds were terrible. The supposed time slots were not maintained so everyone crowded to the top. Not very enjoyable.
A nice experience to get to know and have a good time
Catalina was an amazing tour guide. I would recommend her to any group; adults, kids or anyone else. Enjoy!
Great explanation of tower history guide was well versed and spoke clear English to the tour group at all times
absolutely no reason to take this tour. The guy spoke for five minutes total No advantage in lines really and all the information given was on placards on the wall
Bonjour Sharon, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are genuinely sorry to hear your experience didn't meet your expectations or the standard we aim to provide. Guest feedback is extremely important to us, as it helps us identify areas for improvement and allows us to address issues directly with our guides. Unfortunately, when a review does not include enough information for us to identify the tour or guide concerned, it becomes very difficult for us to investigate what happened and take meaningful action. To help us follow up on feedback such as yours, we would greatly appreciate at least the name of the guide. If you do not remember the guide’s name, the date and approximate time of your tour would allow us to identify who was assigned to your group. Thank you again for sharing your experience with us. We are very sorry that on this occasion we failed to deliver the experience you expected, and we would appreciate any additional details that would help us understand what happened and improve. Arnaud
Easy to book and worth the time and money! Take an uber to the tour meeting spot to make sure you end up in the right location. Emmanuel was an amazing tour guide! He was accommodating, knowledgeable and fun.
Having a guide is great explains about the tower. Our guide was very knowledgeable and nice took our picture so nice !
The walk from the meet up point wasn’t far from Eiffel Tower. Plenty of information. Tour guide (grandmother) was great. Skipping lines was also a bonus and at the top the view was tremendous. Foods expensive and so is gift shop but was expected. Would definitely recommend
Very informative and well planned. A good pace & easy climbing. Well worth the Money. The view was breathtaking.
