3.00A must when visiting Paris!!! I’d advice you to just go to the tower and pay on the day and not bother with the tour, as it’s considerably more expensive, you are charged full adult price by the tour company for children, when at the tower it’s a lot cheaper. The guide was nice but personally not worth the extra money you pay. If you can, try to get to the tower as early to opening times as you can as obviously, the queues are big.
Great option

5.00Our guide was great and very informative! From other reviews I wasn’t sure but we got helpful information and he guided us through security and stayed with us for an overview on the second level. I’d do it again.
All right.

4.00The tour guys did an excellent job explaining everything about the Eiffel tower and It was an amazing experience.. The champagne cruise was very nice. However, please be aware that it is only valid during daylight "NOT AT NIGHT". We saw a family who was leaving in the morning and they were not allowed to get on the boat because it was night time. We were able to go back the next day and do our tour but they were flying out in the morning and this little mishap could have been avoided if the tickets had a specific time set such as only valid from 10am-5pm.
Excellent tour guide
