Eiffel Tower: 2nd Floor Access + Surroundings Guided Tour

About this experience

Eiffel Tower: 2nd Floor Access + Surroundings Guided Tour This guided tour of the Eiffel Tower takes you straight to the heart of Paris's most famous landmark with reserved entrance access and expert commentary. You'll meet your English-speaking guide near Pont d'Iéna before approaching the Iron Lady to learn about Gustave Eiffel's revolutionary engineering and the tower's fascinating history. Skip the queues with reserved entrance tickets and take the elevator to both the first and second floors. On the first floor, step onto the glass floor 57 metres above Champ de Mars for unique views of the city below. Your guide continues the commentary as you ascend to the second floor, pointing out major landmarks including the Seine River, the Louvre, and Notre-Dame Cathedral while sharing stories about the tower's role in World's Fairs and its survival through wars. The second floor offers some of Paris's most spectacular panoramic views, perfect for photos and understanding the city's layout. Your guide provides insider knowledge about the tower's construction, its impact on Paris, and tips for exploring the surrounding area after your tour concludes.
