1.00We arrived 45 minutes ahead of the scheduled tour. We searched for the meeting spot for 90 minutes walking around at and near the designated meeting spot. We never located it. We ended up purchasing tickets to the 1st floor at the ticket booth. Very disappointed. This was supposed to be the highlight of my father’s 91st birthday celebration.
Eiffel Tour was good but boat ride experience was disappointing

3.00When taking this tour you need to note that you have to do the cruise no later than 5:45. No where did it indicate this. When we got to the boat just before 6pm, they said we couldn’t go. They ended up accommodating us but it wasn’t a guided tour(music only).
