What to expect

Check out the 1st and 2nd levels of the Eiffel Tower with this unique experience. You'll discover Paris' most iconic tourist attraction without the crowds as you climb the Eiffel Tower and admire the stunning panoramic views of the city.

You’ll meet your guide near the base of the Eiffel Tower and start your fascinating adventure through the history of the original ‘Dame de Fer’. As you climb the steps to the first level, you’ll marvel at the spectacular views as the City of Light stretches out before you and you hear all about the fascinating past of this architectural wonder. This level isn’t usually included on standard elevator tours, so be sure to make the most of it!

Afterwards, your guide will lead you to the 2nd level observation deck where you’ll get to enjoy more views of the city’s most popular landmarks including the Arc de Triomphe, the Champs-Elysses and Notre Dame while listening to the entertaining commentary of your guide. Then you’ll take the stairs or elevator back down and head out to continue your Parisian adventure on the ground!
