About this activity
Select the departure time to suit your schedule then meet your guide in the streets beneath the soaring spire of Paris’ iconic Eiffel Tower. Receive your prebooked skip-the-line ticket to the tower’s elevator and beat the queues which, during peak times, can take over two hours.
Zip up to the second floor by elevator, and listen as your guide details how Gustave Eiffel designed the tower for the World’s Fair of 1889. Once you arrive on the second floor, enjoy breathtaking views over the French capital and admire top city attractions such as the Louvre Museum, Arc de Triomphe and Notre-Dame Cathedral.
After spending about two hours in this part of the tower, you can either purchase a ticket to the summit (own expense) or head down to ground level to conclude your tour.
Please note: This tour provides skip-the-line priority entry, but is subject to all procedures and security requirements of the Eiffel Tower. Tickets are available up to 90 days in advance of your chosen travel date.

hi this tour was good ! We really skipped the lines till 2nd floor. the guide was good and provided us with lots of information about the tower and surroundings!
Excellent tour and very informative. Headset is the best way the tour guide.
Our guide from Sri Lanka was friendly and very knowledgeable about the tower and surrounding area. I highly recommend this tour. By skipping the line it gave us more time to see other sights.
Awesome!
