Not worth it
Heidi_M
, Jul 2022
Not sure why they call it a “skip the line” tour as we first waited for entire group to show up and be ready, then waited in more lines at the Eiffel Tower. It all took forever - honestly probably longer than it would have to go on our own. I will say our guide was great and very knowledgeable - but he ended our tour abruptly and told us to go visit the 3rd level on our own. When we tried to do that, we were denied, as they tickets they provided were not valid for the 3rd level.

We're sincerely sorry to hear about your disappointment. However, please note that our staff always tries to accommodate our customers in the best way. We do specify that it is important to arrive at the meeting location 15 minutes before the start time of the tour in order for our staff to complete the check-in of the group and leave on time for the activity. Please remember you booked a visit for one of the most famous venues in the world and we do specify in the confirmation email that even with the "skip-the-line" access, you may have to wait at the security point and elevators. Please note that in the description of the activity, it is specified that the guide accompany the group up to the 2nd level and not to the top floor : " Accompanied by your host from our meeting point to the second level, you'll enjoy a relaxing entrance at the Eiffel Tower with ample free time to wander around the viewing platforms and gaze out at Notre-Dame Cathedral, Les Invalides, and more. Then head to the tower's summit (aka 3rd level) for a rarer view, as many visitors don't go up to this additional platform. Kindly send an email to customer support with the details of your reservation so we can find out why you’ve been denied access to the summit level. Again, we're sincerely sorry to hear about your disappointment and we hope you'll give us another chance to enjoy your next experience with us. We thank you for your feedback!

Everyone should go to the top of the Eiffel Tower!

This was our granddaughter's favorite tour - loved going up to the top of the tower. Our tour guide was very good but next time I would just go the tower and buy tickets. It didn't need a tour guide and just added an extra walk to the process.

We're sincerely sorry to hear about your your disappointment, However, please note that our staff always tries to accommodate our customers in the best way; an automatic confirmation email is always sent to the customers 24h in advance so they have all the important information before they start their activity. We do specify that it is important to arrive at the meeting location 15 minutes before the start time of the tour. Our guides have a very tight schedule and they have to leave on time, especially during peak season, and once the check-in is completed and the guide leaves with his assigned group, unfortunately, the customer is considered a “no-show'', therefore not eligible for a refund. Please find below a copy of your voucher : “Before You Go : Please note that you'll meet your guide at the departure point 38 avenue de la Bourdonnais, not at the Eiffel Tower. Latecomers will not be granted entry to the Eiffel Tower and cannot be refunded. In accordance with the Eiffel Tower's legislation, tickets are non-modifiable, non-exchangeable and non-refundable. Please make sure to arrive at our meeting point fifteen minutes before the start of your activity.

Certainly NOT skip the line access. Waited in several different lines to finally ascend in the lift. Guide walked way to fast for elderly family members to keep up. It was also difficult to hear the guide unless you were standing next to her.
