Join a small-group Eiffel Tower tour with an expert guide, timed entry, and sweeping views of Paris from the summit.
About this tour
See Paris unfold beneath you on a small-group journey to the Eiffel Tower summit. This 90-minute Paris Eiffel Tower Guided Tour brings you through the tower’s iron framework and up to panoramic views over the city, with a guide sharing the monument’s history along the way.
With a group capped at 10 and timed entry reserved in advance, you can focus on the experience rather than the ticket office. On the second floor, hear how the tower was built for the 1889 World’s Fair and spot landmarks from above. Then continue with your guide to the summit, where Gustave Eiffel kept a private apartment. Everyone changes elevators on the second floor, so a short wait for the summit lift is possible. If the summit closes, the price difference is refunded automatically.
Meet your guide at the end of Pont d'Iena, opposite the tower, and arrive on time for your entry slot. Choose this Paris Eiffel Tower Guided Tour for expert insight, a more personal group size, and a memorable view from the top.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.75 from 40 reviews. 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 6.9.
