Know before you go

  • Due to the popularity of the Eiffel Tower, we sometimes experience delays from security checks, or ticket desk lines while purchasing your entrance tickets. In peak months (April to October), school holidays, and on weekends, please expect a minimum of 30 minutes waiting time for security and 45 minutes to buy your ticket. In low season (November to March), a minimum of 15 minutes for security and 30 minutes at the ticket desk
  • You cannot use the elevators to descend after your visit; you must take the stairs
  • The guided part of the tour ends on the 2nd floor. If you have booked the summit access, this will be unguided
  • Summit ticket holders will have to wait in line on the 2nd floor to access the summit's elevators
  • For operating reasons, capacity control, or weather, the summit may not be accessible. When this occurs, the group will be unable to access the summit, even if it reopens during your tour. In this event, you will be refunded the price of the summit access within 8-10 days

Amira was our Eiffel Tower guide she was GREAT. Awesome personality explained anything you wanted to talk about. The gal that we were supposed to meet ON THE STEPS out in front of the tower was NOT ON THE STEPS. We had the steps in full view of where we were standing. She was around the corner BY THE STEPS. We almost missed the tour because she wasn’t ON THE STEPS. If you give directions, make sure your people READ them also.

Ana was wonderful, so I formative and knowledgable and clearly had a passion for Paris. She explained everything thoroughly and waited for us at each stage of the climb. She could see my daughter was struggling with anxiety and nerves and delighted her by giving her a small Eiffel Tower statue once we reached the top! Totally recommend Ana Thankyou from Rachel and Holly x
