Amazing View
Really enjoyed visiting the Arc de Triomphe. The view from the top was honestly the best part. You can see the Champs-Élysées and so much of Paris from there. Definitely worth going up!

Definitely worth the trip
We had a wonderful time. It was such an awesome experience. Really enjoyed seeing the history and architecture. The views were awesome.

Phenomenal experience except with tickets
The experience and views were incredible and well worth the steps but I was very frustrated either way the tickets. They said they were sent via email and then you could save to your wallet but they would not take them. Had to contact viator and then got them. Anxiety for nothing and the ticket person said that happens every time with viator. I’d buy direct next time

Sold tickets during Tour de France without any notice, no customer support
I am extremely disappointed with our experience. We purchased tickets through Viator for the Arc de Triomphe on July 26 at 7:00 PM. Unfortunately, that day coincided with the Tour de France, and there was no way to access the monument through the usual entrance. We spent a long time walking around multiple street closures trying to find an open access point, with no guidance or information provided by Viator. By the time we finally reached the entrance, we were already over an hour late. The staff at the entrance refused to let us in because we did not have the actual admission tickets, only the Viator booking confirmation. They were dismissive and did not allow us time to retrieve the tickets or explain the situation. Throughout this ordeal, we repeatedly tried calling Viator’s customer service, but no one answered. It was incredibly frustrating to have no support when we needed it most. What makes this experience especially unacceptable is that Viator continued selling tickets for that time slot during such a major event without warning customers about the significant access restrictions or advising them to arrive much earlier or use alternate routes. We had children and a baby with us, and we ended up walking several miles unnecessarily. To make matters worse, I had also purchased another ticket through Viator the day before, and at no point was I informed that the Tour de France would impact access to the Arc de Triomphe. Selling tickets without informing customers of known logistical issues during a major international event is irresponsible. We lost our visit, wasted time and money, and had a very stressful experience that could have been avoided with proper communication and customer support. Given these circumstances, I believe a full refund is warranted. We were unable to use the tickets due to a situation that Viator should have disclosed in advance, and we received no assistance when we reached out for help. I respectfully request a full refund for our booking.

A Wonderful Tour
Lovely experience . Easy to understand directions. Climb to the terrace was actually very enjoyable. Be prepared, 284 steps is a workout, but the view is worth it.

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Arc de Triomphe Entrance Ticket with Terrace Access: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.
How much does Arc de Triomphe Entrance Ticket with Terrace Access cost?
+
Prices start at $50 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Paris usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Arc de Triomphe Entrance Ticket with Terrace Access take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Paris is not rushed.
Is Arc de Triomphe Entrance Ticket with Terrace Access worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 64 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Arc de Triomphe Entrance Ticket with Terrace Access?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Arc de Triomphe Entrance Ticket with Terrace Access suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Arc de Triomphe Entrance Ticket with Terrace Access?
+
Around 22 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Paris can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Paris and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Arc de Triomphe Entrance Ticket with Terrace Access start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Paris within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Paris?
+
Paris rewards travelers who book ahead. The headline museums sell timed entry weeks out, the best food walks cap at eight people, and the Seine cruises that are worth doing are the ones that leave after sunset. Everything below is scored by the Outty Ranking so you can tell a genuine local favorite from a coach-tour filler in a single glance. On Outty we rank every Paris experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX, Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Paris?
+
April to June and September to October, when queues thin out and terraces stay open late. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Paris?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
