  • This product is non-refundable except: If force majeure makes SETE decide to restrict access to all or part of the monument for over two (2) consecutive hours, reimbursement will be strictly in proportion to that restriction.

No Worth the Money

There is no direct access like they advertise. We had to wait in line for two hot hours before we got to summit. Not worth the money.

Convenient Eiffel Tower experience

Viator made the Eiffel Tower experience incredibly easy. The instructions were clear, and the entire process was convenient from start to finish. I originally was lost on my way there and I called and they were able to get me to the location right on time which made visiting one of Paris's most iconic landmarks stress-free. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a simple, reliable, and hassle-free booking experience.

Buying a tour group not an individual ticket

MUST MEET BLOCKS AWAY TO RECEIVE PAPER TICKETS YOUR TICKET IS ACTUALLY 30 minutes later than they advertise here because they want you to meet 3 blocks away and walk with their group and stand in bigger lines

Effel Tower Summit View

It was terrible. I should be reimbursed. No one would help me get to the destination. The host would not cooperate in meeting me at the Effel Tower since I was already there. I had tickets go to the Summit and was already on the second floor but no one would help me get to the correct elevator to get to the Summit. Plus there were riots going on just outside of the Effel Tower. We are seniors and I felt unsafe in leaving the Effel Tower and going several blocks away to meet the host.

A+++ experience!

Our guide, Dinesh, was very knowledgeable about the Eiffel Tower and went out of his way to make sure he answered questions and engaged with everyone in the group. Because he escorted us through the security checkpoints, it seemed like we were able to get into the Eiffel Tower much faster than people in the regular ticketed/non-ticketed lines. We had a delightful visit and Dinesh went out of his way to make sure we were happy with our tour, including taking beautiful pictures of our family.

This is a real bucket list item. Views were impressive, staff was helpful, and the history of the Eiffel Tower was very interesting.

Great for our first visit to the tower!

Dinesh was our guide and we enjoyed him. He was funny and informative. The tour is not long, but was helpful in understanding what we should do and learning a bit if history along the way. If it’s your first visit, like ours, I recommend!

Missed it

We did not get to experience. We traveled from Disneyland Paris. My son has ulcerative colitis and was not able to get his body regulated. We had to stop. Traffic was horrible and we did not make it. I communicated with the the group and we tried to get through security that did communicate back and tried to give us alternative locations to meet but we were not able to make it and were late and we were not shows.
