About this tour
Skip the queues and head straight up the Eiffel Tower via dedicated lift access to the 2nd floor or summit. At 115 metres, you'll survey Paris's landmarks — the Louvre, Arc de Triomphe, Notre-Dame — with a guide pointing out the city's geography and history. Choose the 2nd floor for a solid vantage point, or continue to the summit for unobstructed 360° views across the metropolis. The whole experience takes about 90 minutes.
Highlights
- Bypass standard queues with reserved lift entry
- Guide identifies major Parisian monuments from your viewpoint
- 360-degree sightlines across the city from 115m up
- Option to ascend further to the summit level
- Wheelchair accessible to 2nd floor; lifts throughout
What to expect
You'll arrive at a dedicated entrance and take the lift directly to your chosen level. Once there, your guide will orient you to the city below, naming landmarks and sharing stories about the tower itself. You're free to wander, take photos, and linger over the views — there's no rushing. If you've selected the summit option, you can continue upwards for an even higher perspective. The 2nd floor strikes a balance between height and accessibility; the summit gives you the most expansive outlook but involves additional climbing.
Good to know
Children under 4 need their own ticket. Prams and strollers work up to the 2nd floor but not the summit. The summit isn't wheelchair accessible. Gratuities aren't included. Public transport is nearby if you need it.
