Full description

The Eiffel Tower summit is the most sought-after ticket in Paris, and the logistics can be confusing on a first visit: which pillar, which queue, which lift. With hosted entry, a local host meets you at a set point near the tower, hands over your timed ticket and walks you to the correct entrance, answering questions along the way.

After security you take the lift to the second floor, then transfer to the summit lift for the panoramic views across the city. There’s no rush once you’re inside: spend as long as you like on each level, with time for photos, a coffee or a glass of champagne at the top (purchased separately).

Frequently asked questions

Is this a guided tour?

No. Your host meets you, handles your ticket and gets you to the right entrance, then you explore the tower independently at your own pace.

No. Everyone goes through security at the Eiffel Tower. Having a timed ticket means you avoid the ticket-office queue.

What happens if the summit is closed?

The summit can close for weather or operational reasons. Where this happens, alternatives or partial refunds are handled according to the policy in your booking confirmation.
