About this tour

See Paris from above on a guided Eiffel Tower summit tour by elevator. Meet your English-speaking guide near the tower, then use reserved access to enter and ascend through its levels. From the summit, admire the city from every angle and spot its landmarks spread across the skyline.

On the way down, pause to walk across the Eiffel Tower’s glass floor for a striking view beneath your feet. Your ticket covers access to all floors, including the summit, and you’re welcome to stay inside the monument as long as you like after the guided visit. The experience lasts about 90 minutes, with a timed entry slot to help organize your visit.

Arrive 15 minutes early at the meeting point on Avenue de la Bourdonnais, not at the Eiffel Tower itself. Choose this Paris Eiffel Tower summit tour by elevator for a memorable perspective on the city, from its famous ironwork to the wide-open views beyond.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.27 from 206 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 4.3.
