We booked this tour for the express purpose of visiting the top of the tower. It was only when we arrived at the ba<x>se of the tower that we were told that the top was closed for maintenance - there was no acknowledgement of this on your website when we booked the tour and it was still actively advertising the trip to the top - this was extremely disappointing and, to my mind, somewhat misleading. The tour guide was, however, excellent and made the history of the tower and the Paris surrounds very interesting - this went some way to redressing the inability to travel to the top and the consequent cost of the tour.

i must admit that the arrangement was really excellent and time saving. it worth paying a bit extra money but to feel happy when bypassing huge endless queues.

We would highly recommend this tour, you really skip the line and do not have to wait. Our tour guide was fantastic, very informative, high energy and a lot of fun ( forget his name but he was from Brazil ) .It was worth it and we would use the service again!!!!

Unlike my other city discovery tour I was not as impressed with this one, It was a super hot day in Paris - 31 degrees C and the guide spent 45 mins in each corner of the tour explaining things that were not interesting nor unknown or something new.

We were a group of six brazilians.
The girl was from Dublin and she was great, although she spoke too fast for us foreigns .Maybe you can arrange it a little better!
She explained each face of the city and a bit of history. Very good indeed, although at the end people started to get tired of standing .

If you have been to visit the Eiffel Tower, you know how long the lines can be to get to go up in the tower. Even though I thought it was a little pricey (59 euro), I throughly enjoyed not waiting in line and the information provided by the tour guide.

As the name states, the biggest advantege of the deal is skipping the enormous lines - but it is pricey.

Very good tour. Nice to bypass the lines to the tour portion of the tower, yet the line to the top was very long.

Was v useful to skip the v long queue. Guide was informative and was good to learn some history without doing research ourselves! Also helpful to have landmarks pointed out from the Tower, we would not have spent so much time up there on our own. Well worth the money!

Our guide, Louiz (the Mexican) was extremely knowledgeable and funny. He was very imformstive not only about the tower but about all the landmark we could see from the tower. He made the history of Paris come to life. The views from the tower were spectacular. You can't go to Paris without seeing the iconic Eiffel Tower and I would recommend this tour. Skipping the queues was a bonus.

We loved this tour. Anya was a wonderful tour guide. We got right into the Tower after a short line through security (in the middle of July on a beautiful day!!!). Anya gave a wonderful little presentation regarding many of the buildings/locations we could see from the Tower, as well as some info on the Tower itself. And then afterward, we were able to get the second elevator to go to the top and enjoy that for as long as we wished. Anya and City Discovery made this sight a wonderful experience. Thank you so much.

Connor from Dublin was a fabulous guide. Our group was ten adults and eight children (ages5-9) and he kept everyone engaged and happy! Over a 25 day trip in two countries he was my favorite guide - helpful, informed, accommodating, and fun!
