At the Arc de Triomphe, travelers will discover one of Paris’s most iconic landmarks, standing proudly at the top of the Champs-Élysées.

Our tour via Paris Odessey was well communicated and we caught elevator up due to one of our travelling party. Well worth the cost to see Paris from a height.
We climbed to the top to see the sunset. Unfortunately the clouds didn’t allow for that but we saw the Eiffel Tower lit up. It was quite an amazing view.
The views were amazing. Glad we made the effort. I am in my late 60s but was able to make the climb. Tickets were purchased in advance on Viator. The direct website for the Arch de Triumph were glitchy for me. Actual tickets were sent 24 hours in advance to my WhatsApp account. Super easy and then could skip the line at the location.
This was a wonderful experience. All staff was very friendly and helpful. If you aren't in reasonably good shape, then make sure to take the elevator because there are a lot of stairs!
Great views of Paris on top of the Arc with some excellent historical information by on mid level. Access from tunnels under the traffic circle.
This was a great way to see the city. I had been to Paris 3 times and never gone up. I needed a cane to walk and was very worried how this could be managed but I was treated so well by the French employees. They saw the cane and directed me and my granddaughter to an operator who put me on a lift. Twice. They were wonderful to help me. And I enjoyed it immensely. I think I was treated better in France than in the USA!!
Going to the top of the Arc was a great view to see Paris. There are a lot of stairs, but places to stop along the way if needed. These tickets were available when promised (24 hours ahead) and made it easy to enter the Arc. We did have to wait in line for entry but it was reasonable. Entry time was not clear as the Arc website had later opening hours. Overall, the tickets worked for entry with no issues and were more readily available than from the Arc website.
Easy in access and a great view of the city.
Loved walking to the top of the Arc de Triomphe. The view is spectacular! Viator made getting tickets very easy.
A great way to see magnificent views of Paris. You climb 284+ of stairs to get to the top and the reward is the views you get to see. We did this on our first night and it was a great way to get a perspective on where the famous sights are throughout Paris.
