The guides gave helpful...

The guides gave helpful instructions about the tour, safety & security prior to & during the tour. They spoke in English & French. They were friendly. The meeting place for the tour is not at the Eiffel Tower—it’s a couple blocks away & you walk to it.

Lifesaver for Last-Minute Bookings and Excellent Service!

I visited the Eiffel Tower with my family this July. I wasn't aware that you need to buy tickets to the summit well in advance for the peak summer season, so we initially missed out on the official website. After searching online, I came across Viator. Even though the price is more expensive compared to the official Eiffel Tower tickets, it was completely worth it given our situation, and I managed to secure tickets for my whole family. The booking process was very smooth. I actually used the live chat feature on their website, and the tour expert was excellent at explaining all the details. The service overall was pretty good, especially the timely reminders leading up to the day. The tour was well-organised with clear, advance notifications about the meeting point. There was also good follow-up once we arrived at the meeting location. One important tip for other travellers: I was looking for a "Viator" sign at the meeting point, but it is actually a local office with a different name located at 41 Av. de la Bourdonnais, 75007 Paris. Our tour guide, Deborah, was fantastic. She took the time to provide a brief and interesting history of the Eiffel Tower, guided us up to the second floor, and made sure we were well looked after. We had a great experience and highly recommend this tour if you miss out on official tickets!

Easy to find starting...

Easy to find starting location and the tour guide shared interesting things with my kids about the Eiffel Tower. It is a quick tour as they give you free time at the tower afterwards. Made getting tickets easy.

You pay for guaranteed access to the top at a specific date/time

Trop was good. Valid for the money - not. Ticks were about 40€ but we paid close to 100€ to guarantee a spot at a specific time. More money for guaranteed ascent to the top floor fir a given day. Having more time and more options. Would suggest picking the ticks up yourself. The guide was good.
