Eiffel Tower Climbing Experience with Summit Access

This comprehensive tour is typically scheduled to last for 2 hours, though in high season, crowds at tickets and security checks can sometimes increase the tour duration. Rest assured that these lines will move much quicker than the line for the elevator! 

If there is a wait, your guide will use this time to explain the fascinating history of the Tower’s creation. As you climb the steps to the first level, you will marvel as City of Light emerges before your eyes and your guides shares the fascinating background of the architectural wonder that made Gustave Eiffel famous.[readmore]On the first level, which is not regularly included on standard elevator tours, you will have time to take pictures or walk on the 188 ft (57 m) high glass floor. 

Your guide will then lead you up the steps again, to witness more incredible views on the way to the 2nd level observation deck. Here, you'll be able to take in more of the city's most iconic landmarks including the Arc de Triomphe, Champs-Elysses, and Notre Dame while enjoying your guide's insightful and entertaining commentary.

After seeing the city from the second floor, enjoy some free time and go above the ordinary to the summit (3rd level) by the comfort of an elevator for the highest panoramic views that the city has to offer.

Occasionally, due to situations beyond our control such as inclement weather or other circumstances, the summit may be temporarily closed upon your arrival to the Eiffel Tower. In these rare cases, the group will not be able to access the summit, even if it reopens while we are inside the tower. Should this occur, you will receive a refund for difference in cost of accessing the summit.

Once you are finished admiring the spectacular views, you can choose to take the stairs or the elevator back to the ground floor to continue your Parisian adventure!
