Itinerary
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.

They closed the Arc at 1:45pm our tickets were for 8:10pm we were never notified, showed up to a sign on the door. Would like my money back.
Because of the heat, the arc de Triomphe was closed early, I am not sure how to get a refund for this experience
Fabulous experience, no wait time upon arrival and thoroughly enjoyed this site. Highly recommend to all
This ticket did not work, not from the email, not the download, not with help with the ticket desk. It took three times to get through, and only with a personal escort from the manager, waiving the non-working barcodes. This experience was SO stressful and confusing. Don’t book with this service!
We chose this tour because by the time we tried to book tickets, they were sold out and this was the only way we could get onto the Arch at the time we had available. We did not have a private guide. I was glad we did it and the views were exceptional (But obviously would have been more cost effective to book tickets in advance directly from the Arch website if we had known our timing better). A friend told us this was a better view than the Eiffel Tower because you could actually see the Eiffel Tower vs when you are at the tower you can't see it. The day was hot and I was concerned the lines would be dreadful but they moved quickly. I was prepared for the stairs by reading other reviews but was a little concerned because I have a bad hip. However, I wore good shoes and made it to the top without issue. There is only one bathroom when you are almost to the top and that line took a few minutes but not too bad. We didn't take the boat cruise because it didn't work without schedule and had another dinner cruise schedule for the tour but I highly recommend doing at least one boat tour on your visit. Great way to see so many iconic sights.
There was no optional guide. All we got was a link to a history of the arc. It was nice to be there, but don't expect much from this particular booking.
Spectacular views but all the stairs were a lot. Worth the climb and my husband did get to take ean elevator.
It was great to see and learn the history. Purchasing tickets and then being told we couldn’t get in and having to scramble to somehow find out how to get the QR code was very frustrating.
On your own obviously since there is no guide. We didn’t have to wait but a couple of minutes and that was only for security. . Beautiful views
to cross the street you must go underground---that should be part of the directions as we didn't know about that and had quite a time getting across 6 lanes of circular traffic going about 100 mph.... the view from the top is beautiful. We needed an elevator as one of our group had walking difficulties and he was accommodated nicely with the lift. A nice trip.
