Discover the Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower is the most famous monument in Paris and one of the most recognizable landmarks in the world. Designed by engineer Gustave Eiffel and completed in 1889 for the Exposition Universelle, it was built to celebrate the centenary of the French Revolution and quickly became the emblem of the French capital. Standing 324 meters tall, the Iron Lady dominates the Paris skyline and welcomes millions of visitors each year.
Ascend to the Eiffel Tower Summit
This experience includes timed-entry access to the summit of the Eiffel Tower, the highest level open to visitors. From this exceptional vantage point, you’ll ride up through the tower and step onto the top platform to enjoy wide, unobstructed views over Paris and the surrounding region.
Admire the Paris Skyline
From the observation decks, you can admire many of the city’s most iconic sights: the Seine River curving through Paris, the Arc de Triomphe at the top of the Champs-Élysées, the Louvre Museum, Notre-Dame Cathedral and the hill of Montmartre crowned by the Sacré-Cœur Basilica. Interactive displays and orientation tables help you identify each monument and district so you can better understand the layout of the City of Light.
A Timeless Symbol of Paris
Originally conceived as a temporary structure, the Eiffel Tower has become a permanent symbol of Paris and one of the most visited monuments in the world. Today it represents French engineering, innovation and romance, making it a must-see highlight for first-time visitors and returning travellers alike.

Reviews
I booked two separate tours with Ophorus in France during July. "Dijon Wine Tour: Côte de Nuits & Côte de Beaune Vineyards" tour was an incredible value, in large part because our tour guide and driver, Orlane, was incredibly knowledgeable and kind. Visiting 3 prestigious vinyeards/winemakers (and a few historical photo stops along the way, plus a lunch stop in Beaune), we were given great information about winemaking in France, and specifically what makes wine in Burgundy unique. It was unpretentious, relaxing, and of course, tasty. Thank you so much to Orlane for an unforgettable day. 5 stars. "Versailles Small Group English Guided Tour from Paris with Skip-the-Line Access" tour was great itself, with tour guide Nicolas being very clear, informative, and ushering our group through a very busy and hot morning at Versailles. However, after I had initially booked the tour (which meets near the Eiffel Tower), I discovered the Tour de France was doing its final race Stage in Paris the same day as my reservation. I e-mailed to request to change the date, and the rep suggested I just arrive a little early. (I'm not sure how the return trip would have gone, as roads in that area were due to be closed all day, in addition to many public transportation stops and lines.) They did change my reservation to a different day at no charge, thank goodness. The e-mail responsiveness was fast and appreciated, but I recommend checking for holidays and special events, as some French people confirmed it would not have worked to take the tour from that location during the Tour de France. 5 stars to Nicholas and our driver, 3 stars to Ophorus admin for not catching and blocking out days on the front end, that should not be offered to book. I would book a tour with this company again.
We had a fantastic day tour of Pomerol and Saint Emilion with our very knowledgeable guide, Guy. The Chateaus we visited were very impressive and the extra tips and information Guy gave us was first class. We highly recommend this tour.
Lea was a very friendly and helpful, She guided us through the charming towns of Colmar, Riquewihr and Haut Koeningsbourg castle, allowing us to explore freely and enjoy the surroundings.
