Make sure to get a ticket for each person
Please do not buy tickets through TripAdvisor, we were almost turned away because trip advisor gave us one ticket for two adults. When we arrived, the lady said that each person needed their own ticket despite the fact that our ticket clearly stated two adults. They s annex our electronic ticket and it only let one person enter. After arguing for ten minutes and showing her the booking information. the lady finally let us go. If you book this, make sure to get a ticket for each person.

Poor delivery of tickets
The instructions were not very clear at all on how to redeem the voucher. The actual tickets would not pull up properly it was very frustrating to use this app for the tickets I should have just gone to the Arc de Triumphe and bought them directly would’ve been much easier I loved the attraction, but will not use Viator again to book tickets like this. Even the women at the ticket office had trouble finding my tickets on Viator and the email. Again, it simply would not open properly

Complete waste of money!!
The lift was closed on the day we visited (22 September) which did not allow us to access the Arc as my husband was in a wheelchair. We understood he would not be able to access the Terrace, but we were told very bluntly "No refunds available" which is a complete waste of the money spent with the provider World Pass Tour France! Extremely disappointed as our trip to Paris was to see historical landmarks before heading to the Normandy Beaches :( :( :(

Worth visiting around sunset
We booked an evening visit and the timing was perfect. Watching Paris slowly light up from the terrace was probably my favourite part. There are quite a few stairs, so be prepared for that, but overall it was a great experience.

Much more impressive than expected
I had walked past the Arc de Triomphe before but never actually went inside. This time we went up to the terrace and I’m glad we did. The panoramic view is fantastic, especially looking straight down the Champs-Élysées. Definitely worth adding to a Paris trip.

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 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 76 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 27 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 Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based), Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX. 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.
What is included in Arc de Triomphe Entrance Ticket with Terrace Access?
+
Included: Visit to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier; Access to the rooftop terrace with panoramic views of Paris; Entry to the interior museum/exhibition areas; Entrance ticket to the Arc de Triomphe; and Self-guided visit at your own pace.

+

+
