The Experience

What your day looks like

See the Eiffel Tower the way Gustave Eiffel intended — while climbing it! We created the world's first climbing tour, where your local guide will share the history of the tower's engineering as you ascend the different levels. But climbing the stairs isn't all you'll do. You'll have the chance to stop on each level, where you can get a bird's-eye view of the city. On the first level, you'll see amazing views around and even beneath you through the transparent floor. On the second level, take a break as your guide points out the Paris landmarks you can see below. Don’t want to climb? Upgrade to take the glass-walled elevator to the summit, where more views, a champagne bar, and Gustave Eiffel's restored private office await. If you choose the Seine River cruise upgrade, your ticket will be emailed to you after you check in for your tour. (If you don’t have it an hour after the tour starts, check your spam folder.) Your cruise ticket is good for a year, so enjoy the ride when convenient.
