Begin your tour near the base of the Eiffel Tower where your expert guide will give you an introduction to the structure. From here, walk with your guide to the ticket desk of the Eiffel Tower where you’ll have your first opportunity for a close-up look at the monument while we arrange your tickets.

This comprehensive tour typically lasts around 2 hours, but wait times for security checks can sometimes extend the tour duration.

As you climb the steps directly up to the second level, you will marvel as the City of Light emerges before your eyes and your guide shares the fascinating background of the architectural wonder that made Gustave Eiffel famous. On the second floor, you'll be able to take in the city's most iconic landmarks including the Arc de Triomphe, Champs-Élysées, and Notre Dame while enjoying your guide's insightful and entertaining commentary.
