About this experience
Choose the Paris view that fits your style, then let the city do the rest. Select an English-guided Eiffel Tower visit to the 2nd floor or summit, or pick a combo that pairs the tower with a Seine River cruise for an extra layer of Paris magic. Start at the Eiffel Tower and ride the elevator up to the 2nd floor, where the skyline spreads out in every direction. If the summit option is selected, continue higher by elevator to reach the tower’s highest level, including highlights like Gustave Eiffel’s private office. From there, enjoy a true 360° panorama over Paris landmarks. If the chosen option includes the Seine cruise, the next chapter is effortless. Boats depart from the Eiffel Tower area, so it’s easy to fit into your day. The cruise ticket is flexible and can be used the same day or another day, up to one year from booking.
