If you are looking to a short line via a tour, it isn't worth it. Just arrive 9 am to south gate. Guide was ok but very short time explaining things. Some things in Paris are worth a tour (Louvre), but not the tower.
Going to the top of the Eiffel Tower was amazing! The views are out of this world. Our tour guide Ellen was the best She gave us lots of interesting information!
Very disappointing trip as it was cancelled at short notice. We arrived at 9 a.m and we’re still queuing in the pouring rain at 10.30 having been told by the Eiffel Tower staff via our guide that the Tower would not open until at least 11.30. We were then offered the option of a refund which we took.
We had the best guide ever. He was so informative about the tower and history. Unfortunately I was unable to go to the something due to a knee injury. They need to let buyers know if you have any mo ility issues they will not allow something. So don't pay. Just go to 2nd floor. It still was very beautiful. 1 st trip cancelled due to strike but this one got us in earlier. Recommend for all.
A very informative tour, Melanie was really knowledgeable about the tower and Paris and helpful for the onward journey
