Explore the Eiffel Tower with a private guide, ride to the summit, and admire Paris landmarks from 276 meters above the city.
About this tour
See Paris from above on a private Eiffel Tower guided tour, with reserved access and a guide dedicated to your group. In two hours, ride the elevators through the tower’s levels and continue up to the summit, 276 meters above the city. From the top, pick out famous landmarks such as the Arc de Triomphe and the Louvre across the Paris skyline.
Along the way, hear about the tower’s history and architecture, and pause on the first floor to look through its glass floor, 57 meters above the ground. Your guide also assists your group through security procedures. The experience is designed for groups of one to six guests, with a live guide listed in English.
Arrive at the meeting point 20 minutes before departure. Reserved access does not eliminate all waiting: security checks and crowds can sometimes lead to waits exceeding an hour. Access to the summit and other levels remains subject to Eiffel Tower rules and conditions. Choose this Paris Eiffel Tower guided tour for a personal perspective on the landmark and its far-reaching views.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 1.00 from 1 review. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Paris
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.0.
