Boat or canceled our tour at the last minute claiming “the top was closed.” Funny thing about that…we were already at the Eiffel Tower when we received the txt as we watched group after group go to the top. This is the second time this has happen us.
While my daughter and I absolutely loved the Eiffel Tower, we were not very happy with the tour experience. We spent money for a tour because we thought it would make our visit easier. In the end, we still had to wait in line for over an hour to get tickets, the tour guide did not seem prepared to give the tour and in the end, we went off on our own. The guide was very nice, but she just didn't seem like she had the experience with this particular tour to be an effective guide. I would not have spent the money if the description of the tour had been clear and indicated that we'd still have to wait in line.
Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased that you and your daughter enjoyed the Eiffel Tower. Please note that all visitors must pass through the mandatory security lines, and the tour description does not advertise skip-the-line access. We are sorry that the guiding experience did not meet your expectations, and we will review this feedback with our team.
It was the great experience. The guide Christine was very patient and explained the landmarks very well.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're so happy to hear you had a great experience. Christine will be thrilled to know that you enjoyed her tour—she truly loves sharing Paris with our guests. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure the next time you're in Paris!
Our provider, Adventour, did not show up at the Eiffel Tower with our entry tickets. They were not available by phone, text, or email. We were not able to go to the top of the tower. Viator was great and gave us a full refund, but the local provider, Adventour never reached out to us or apologized.
Hi John, thank you for your review. We apologize for your inconvenience, but we have records that you never showed up at the meeting point at selected time. We issued full refund. Best regards,
It’s a lot of steps. And top floor could be closed due to capacity causing a wait. Our tour guide Garon was fantastic. A lot of tips and knowledge.
Whole family enjoyed this tour, including 15 year old daughter. We really loved learning about Gustav Eiffel.
The steps were a bit tough but so glad I did it. Our guide, Gabon, was wonderful. Even made it to the top.
While the climb to the second floor was tiring, it was totally worth it. Goran was fantastic. Great information and great sense of humor.
This tour was cancelled at the last minute; within an hour of the start time. Apparently, the guide was unable to get to Paris, ( no further explanation provided). We were already at the Eiffel Tower, ( having prepared ahead), when we received notice it was cancelled. The alternative option that was offered was not amenable to our schedule, so we requested a refund.
The tour started at 9.30am, at 7pm the night before I received an email to say they did not have tickets for me. By the time I received the email at 9pm, contacted Viator and told the company had closed for the day so that was that. I had ordered in advance and paid in advance. Totally shocking way to treat customers, told I could go a different day, but would have left Paris by then. So no Effiel Tower for me. It was already totally over priced, then they did not deliver, just left out to dry
