Ride the Eiffel Tower elevator for Paris views, then take a 1-hour Seine cruise past the city’s famous monuments.

About this tour

See Paris from two memorable vantage points on this Eiffel Tower tour and Seine cruise. Meet your guide near the tower, then take the elevator to its second floor for sweeping views over the city. Your English-speaking guide provides introductory commentary and helps facilitate your entry. If you book the summit option, continue upward to take in Paris from the tower’s highest level.

After your tower visit, board a 1-hour cruise along the Seine. Audio guides accompany the journey as you pass famous Paris monuments from the water. The cruise ticket remains valid for 6 months after your Eiffel Tower visit, giving you flexibility to take in the river scenery later.

This Paris Eiffel Tower tour and Seine cruise pairs reserved tower access with a relaxed river journey. Arrive 15 minutes early at 41 Avenue de la Bourdonnais, not at the Eiffel Tower itself, and enjoy two classic perspectives on the city.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.50 from 113 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 5.4.
