The Great Eiffel
Lovett was a great tour guide, she told us a lot of great stories about the tower. She was very knowledgeable and very friendly. The only problem was the company contacted us to change the time the day before which meant it was raining when we went up.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the 5-star rating and for sharing your experience! We are thrilled to hear that Lovett provided such an engaging, knowledgeable, and friendly private tour! Her ability to bring the Eiffel Tower to life through great storytelling is something we are immensely proud of, and we will certainly pass along your wonderful feedback to her. At the same time, we sincerely apologize for the last-minute schedule adjustment the day before your tour. While operational shifts or monument ticket timing changes occasionally require schedule updates, we completely understand how disappointing it was to end up visiting during the rain as a result. We are actively reviewing our scheduling practices to minimize late schedule changes and ensure our guests enjoy the best possible conditions. We truly appreciate your understanding and kindness toward Lovett, and we hope to welcome you back for a sunny climb on your next trip to Paris!

Eiffel Tower Tour up to Second Floor Access with a Private Guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.
How much does Eiffel Tower Tour up to Second Floor Access with a Private Guide cost?
+
Prices start at $218 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 Eiffel Tower Tour up to Second Floor Access with a Private Guide 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 Eiffel Tower Tour up to Second Floor Access with a Private Guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 133 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Eiffel Tower Tour up to Second Floor Access with a Private Guide?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Eiffel Tower Tour up to Second Floor Access with a Private Guide 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 Eiffel Tower Tour up to Second Floor Access with a Private Guide?
+
Around 47 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 Eiffel Tower Tour up to Second Floor Access with a Private Guide 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.
