The line was pretty long when we were at the tower, so we were definitely happy to be able to skip it! Aaron was our tour guide and he provided a lot of interesting information that we wouldn't have known had we been on our own. We had plenty of time on our own for photos and taking in the views, but Aaron was always available if we had questions. Very much worth our money.

Unfortunately, we lost our tour quite early in the piece because we were too busy doing our own thing and forgot the time to meet up again on the 2nd level. However meeting up was just fine and went according to our detailed instructions. Our guide's introduction was very informative and he had some cute stories to entertain us. SKIPPIN THE QUEUES WAS THE BEST THING EVER. We couldn't believe the length of the line up for the ticket booth and this is supposed to be off season. We recommend everyone to PREPURCHASE AND BEAT THE QUEUES.

This was definitely worth doing! Our tour guide was Aaron, and he was prompt, friendly, and very informative. He did an excellent job and told us so much about the Eiffel Tower's history... stuff you don't necessarily read in books or on-line. He also gave us a lot of history about various landmarks around Paris. Our friends who didn't do this tour were jealous when we told them how great it was!

Aaron was our guide and he was easy to find. Even though we could have lined up for 15 minutes it was great not having to and having someone tell us about the pick pockets and expensive things to avoid.

His information filled in a lot of information that we were uncertain about. We could have gone to the top floor but chose not to because we were so satisfied with level 2.

Im only giving this tour..skip the line an ok. the company did not fully give us the correct information on this tour. Yes, we skipped the line to get to the second level, but we had to get in the line to get to the top. If I would have known this we would have gotten in line as soon as we got to the second level..(we had a 20 minute shopping/bathroom break and the tour guide gave us information on different buildings, etc.

We arrived on a very busy day, and the waiting areas around the tower was a complete zoo, so being able to skip the enormous lines was amazing. Aside from a brief SNAFU related to a booking problem for another group, we were up and on the tower quickly and efficiently. Our guide, Aaron was friendly, funny and very knowledgable. We had two young kids with us and were afraid that they wouldn't have patience for the tour (such that we'd leave the tour after getting onto the tower) but decided to give it a try and were very happy we did. We'd recommend this for visitors early in their Paris trip, as the guide provides a wonderful overview of the city, a good narrative of the history surrounding many of the sights of the city and very useful tips about the best things to see in the city. We were very happy with this tour.

We absolutely loved it! Our tour guide did a great job, and felt like we were on a tour of the whole city. We appreciated all the facts about the tower as well as the whole city. The wait that day was about 4 hours, and it was nice just to skip the line and go right up. Would highly recommend.

Even though we had cold rain on the day of our tour and three elevators weren't working, we had one of the best tours I've taken on a trip.
Our tour guide Collin was fantastic. Nice, informative, smiling and never in a rush. We never waited long and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND our tour. I would even take it again.

IThe trip to the very top of the Tour Eiffel was fantastic. Amazing (and kept us from passing out if we had had to stand in line for 2 or 3 hours to go up.) And such information. We had a young man named Aaron and he was fantastic. Full of pertinent information that kept us interested and on our toes the entire time. Aaron and the tour are both highly recommended. Thank you so much! Katie Kelly

The tour guide 'Marcus' was an extremely pleasant and likeable chap, his knowledge of the Eiffel tower and the history of Paris made the tour for us, this added real substance to out visit and gave us a greater apprciation of Paris that we would otherwise not have got. I have not been on any other tours but if they are all of this quality I would not hesitate to book on another.

The whole booking process and communication from the company was excellent.

Our tour guide Haley was very good. She was very informative and enthusiastic. It was only a short wait in line to get to the lift which was brilliant as the other lines were getting very busy. At the top we had a great view of the city with all the famous land marks pointed out to us. I would recommend this trip to anyone.
