My 3 sisters and I were going to Paris to celebrate one sister’s 60th birthday and we couldn’t use our tickets since Eurostar cancelled our train because of the hot weather.

You meet the guide in a...

You meet the guide in a friendly and comfortable office, and walk about five minutes over to the entry to the Eiffel Tower. The guides are assigned based on language, although ours was able to communicate just as fluently with a family that came who spoke a different language. She was friendly and clear and very efficient in getting us through all of the steps getting into the elevator to the Eiffel Tower second level. Then we were free to roam as we chose. A very nice afternoon and great experience! We didn’t get a chance to take the boat tour as well because of our limited time in Paris, but even with out that this was certainly worth the price.
